Now that the third preseason game has been completed, bettors pretty much have an idea what all 32 of the teams are going to look like in their finished forms. Injuries have changed the Super Bowl odds quite a bit, which is why it is vital to look at the Super Bowl 50 odds right now when the prices are as good as you'll find for the rest of the year.

The biggest movers and shakers here on the Super Bowl odds are clearly the Eagles. They were once as high as 20 to 1 to win it all, but after Chip Kelly debuted what looked to be quite a strong team in the preseason, that number has come screaming down to +1245 on the eve of the season.
Of course, one needs to be aware that Kelly's offense is going to look really good in the preseason no matter who is running the show. He wants to get the most plays in as possible, and that generally leads to more points against tired defenses which just can't simulate that type of play in practice and don't even think about trying to in games which don't mean a heck of a lot.
We're not saying that it's a gross overreaction, but we do think there are better odds on the board.
It's actually a little surprising that the New England Patriots and Green Bay Packers haven't watched their Super Bowl odds deteriorate.
As we get closer to the year without a resolution in the Tom Brady "Deflategate" case, it is becoming more and more real that Brady will sit for four games, leaving Jimmy Garoppolo, who has had up and down results in his exhibitions, to fend for himself the first quarter of the campaign.
In Green Bay, wide receivers have been dropping like flies. Jordy Nelson's season is over with after he tore his ACL in the second preseason game, and there's a chance that Randall Cobb isn't ready for the season thanks to a shoulder injury.
All that said, these two teams are both still right there when it comes to winning it all. New England remains the fourth favorite to win the Super Bowl at +915, while the Packers are still the second favorites at +645.
Interestingly enough though, the beneficiaries of all of this have been the Seattle Seahawks, who have jumped to a +410 favorite after starting off the year close to 6 to 1 to win a championship.
If you're looking for a trendy underdog to back to win the Super Bowl, look no further than the Minnesota Vikings. They were once 50 to 1 to win it all and have come down to 40 to 1. Part of that is because Teddy Bridgewater really looks like he has made great strides in the preseason, while this could also in part be attributed to Green Bay losing Nelson for the year.
The NFC North is going to be there for the taking for sure if the Packers struggle on offense without their best wide receiver, and between a really good defense and a an improving offense behind one of the top young signal callers in the NFL, Minnesota fits the bill for a club which could pull off some upsets.
