With the 2010 NFL regular season set to kick-off in a couple of months, it is time to take a look at each team’s current odds to win their conference as we begin to put the pieces together to try and figure out which two teams will meet next February in Super Bowl XLV.
As we get ready for the 2009 NFL season it is a good time to fully analyze each team’s chances this year. In the AFC you have your perennial favorites and the up and comers. Each year there are surprise teams, both good and bad.
Last season’s success is no guarantee for this year and it is possible to go from worst to first in today’s parity driven NFL.
