Cowboys open playoffs as longest of long shots to win Super Bowl

The odds have been against the Dallas Cowboys for most of the 2018 season, so this should come as no surprise.

Oddsmakers, including BetDSI.eu, don’t think much of the Cowboys in the playoffs.

In fact, the Cowboys are the longest of long shots among the 12 playoff teams.

The NFC’s No. 1 seed New Orleans Saints (13-3) are the favorite, followed by the AFC top-seed Kansas City Chiefs (12-4).

Last year’s Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles, who won Sunday to earn the last wild card spot, are given the second-worst odds.

The Cowboys opened as slight favorites (minus 3) in their wild card matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The teams play at 7:15 p.m. Saturday at AT&T Stadium.

Odds to win Super Bowl 43:

Saints +200

Chiefs +300

Patriots +450

Rams +500

Texans +1900

Colts +2000

Chargers +2500

Bears +3500

Ravens +4500

Seahawks +5500

Eagles +6500

Cowboys +8000
