The NFL playoffs are set to begin with the Los Angeles Rams opening as 10-point favourites against the Carolina Panthers on Wild Card Weekend, according to the latest odds from BetOnline.ag. The Rams’ sizeable spread reflects strong confidence from oddsmakers as they prepare for the postseason.
Currently, the Rams are tied with the Seattle Seahawks at +450 odds in the Super Bowl LX futures, making them joint favourites to win the championship. Despite a turbulent end to the regular season, Los Angeles maintains one of the league’s strongest positions heading into the playoffs.
Quarterback Matthew Stafford, the driving force behind the Rams this season, is also a slight favourite to claim the NFL MVP award at -135. He edges past New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, who holds early odds of -105 in the MVP race.
The Wild Card Weekend features several intriguing matchups, including a nostalgic Green Bay Packers versus Chicago Bears game and a rematch of the 2022 NFC Championship between the San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles. The Los Angeles Chargers face the New England Patriots, renewing a rivalry linked to former stars Philip Rivers and Tom Brady from the 2008 AFC Championship.
Here are the Wild Card Weekend spreads from BetOnline.ag:
- Los Angeles Chargers at New England Patriots: Patriots -3 (opened Patriots -3.5)
- Buffalo Bills at Jacksonville Jaguars: Jaguars +1
- Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears: Bears -1 (opened pick ’em)
- San Francisco 49ers at Philadelphia Eagles: Eagles -3.5 (opened Eagles -3)
- Los Angeles Rams at Carolina Panthers: Rams -10

In the futures market, the Rams and Seahawks lead the pack with the shortest odds to win Super Bowl LX at +450. They are followed by the Denver Broncos (+700) and Philadelphia Eagles (+850). Long shots include the Panthers at +15000 and the Steelers at +10000.
Odds for Wild Card games may change as betting activity continues, with early movements favouring the Chargers, Bears, and Eagles, causing slight shifts in those lines.
