The Chiefs have a 20% chance of taking their second title in three years per numberFire's schedule-adjusted metrics. The four teams after them with the next best odds -- the Green Bay Packers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Buffalo Bills, and Dallas Cowboys -- are the only teams with at least a 10% chance of victory by those metrics.

The second straight loss for the New England Patriots saw their line move out to +1700. A hard-fought Thursday night win over the San Francisco 49ers saw the Tennessee Titans' odds improve to +1800, while the Cincinnati Bengals are now available at +2600 after their stomping of the Baltimore Ravens. Baltimore is now at +5500 and has just a 0.4% chance of ultimate victory by our metrics.

As we head into Week 17, the FanDuel sportsbook has closed the book on eight teams when it comes to winning the Super Bowl. This number is only going to increase over the next few weeks with the trapdoor snapping at the heels of the Denver Broncos, the Atlanta Falcons, and the Washington Football Team.
