2025 NFL Playoff Odds: Which Teams Are Bettors Back To Make Postseason?
NFL Week 1 is just under two months away, and bettors are gearing up for the return of football. Between coaching changes, rookie additions, free-agent signings , trades and beyond, teams will enter the 2025 NFL season looking a bit different from last year. What teams do football fans believe will make the playoffs, and which ones do they think will miss postseason play? Let's check out the odds at BetMGM Sportsbook as of July 17, as well as what to know about playoff betting. TEAMS TO MISS PLAYOFFS Favorite: Browns: -1600 (bet $10 to win $10.63 total) Betting trends: The Saints (-800) are the most bet team to miss the playoffs in terms of handle and the Lions are the most bet in terms of tickets. What to know: The Cleveland Browns last made it to the postseason in 2023, where they lost their wild-card matchup to the Texans. As they head into the 2025-26 season, the team faces uncertainty at quarterback. Cleveland's offseason has been busy adding signal callers to its roster, including last year's Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year, Shedeur Sanders, who was selected with the 144th overall pick. Last year, the Browns ranked last in average yards per completion (5.9) and second to last in completion percentage (59.8%), while leading the league in interceptions thrown (23). With only three wins last season and an average of 5.7 wins per year over the past decade (57-106-1 record), the Browns are heavily favored to miss the playoffs. While Cleveland tops the oddsboard to miss the playoffs, bettors are eyeing New Orleans. Last season, the Saints posted their worst record (5-12) since 2005 and have not reached the playoffs since 2020, when they won the NFC South with a 12-4 record. TEAMS TO MAKE PLAYOFFS Favorite: Bills: -750 (bet $10 to win $11.33 total) Betting trends: The Bears (+155) are the most bet team to make the playoffs in terms of tickets and the Vikings (-115) are the most bet in terms of handle. What to know: The Bills have made the playoffs in six consecutive seasons. Josh Allen is coming off of an MVP season, leading Buffalo to set franchise records for points (525) and touchdowns (65). Meanwhile, Minnesota reached the wild-card round in 2024, and despite losing quarterback Sam Darnold, it will now turn to J.J. McCarthy, the No. 10 overall pick in the 2024 draft.

52 days until the Texans' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No.52
The Houston Texans are less than 100 days away from kicking off the 2025 season in Los Angeles against the Rams at SoFi Stadium and we're counting down the days until a victory ensues on the west coast. Texans Wire will each day tell you which player has worn the number of the day leading up to kickoff and pick the player who ensured the number best during their time at NRG Stadium. As for today, let's take a look at who has worn No. 52 since the inaugural season in 2002. Texans players to wear No. 52 No. 52 currently belongs to new defensive end Darrell Taylor. After a promising season with the Chicago Bears, Taylor inked a one-year, prove-it deal with Houston as a potential No. 3 option on pass-rushing sets. Houston already has its two stars with Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter, but Tayor and Derek Barnett could compete for playing time throughout fall camp. Over his career in Chicago and Seattle, Taylor has racked up 24.5 sacks, 22 tackles for loss and 43 QB hits. He's a rotational option, but the upside in the pass-rushing department offers the Texans another punch to a promising defensive line in what could be a record-setting season at NRG Stadium. Since Taylor is new and technically hasn't worn the jersey in a game, he can't be the G.O.A.T. of the jersey. So, who is after two decades of play? The Texans have options at center following inconsistent play in 2024, so Patterson will need a promising camp tpo prove he's the right option past this upcoming a break? Play the USA TODAY Daily Crossword Puzzle Best Player: Jonathan Greenard Does recency bias play a role in this selection? Sure, but Greenard's peak as a rising stud off the edge makes him a more valuable option for the title of G.O.A.T. than a special-teams standout like Peters. Afrer a promising second season, Greenard was expected to take a substantial jump forward under Lovie Smith, an injury sidelined him for half the season. In DeMeco Ryans' defense, the 2021 version of Greenard reappeared as the anchor for the Texans' front seven. Will Anderson received national praise and accolades en route to winning Defensive Rookie of the Year honors, but Greenard was the more productive option, totaling 12.5 sacks and 18 tackles for loss. Greenard inked a massive four-year deal with the Vikings the following offseason and has continued his reign as a rising pass-rusher in the NFC. The Texans miss his impact, but also lucked into landing Pro Bowler Danielle Hunter, who put up similar numbers after leaving Minneapolis en route to helping Houston secure a second AFC South title. If Greenard stuck around Houston, he wouldn't just be the best player to wear No. 52. There's a chance he'd be the second-best defensive end in franchise history behind J.J. Watt.

PFF projects New Orleans Saints will win under six games in 2025 NFL season
There is not much hope surrounding the New Orleans Saints in the league this season, but just how many games would they have to win to prove the doubters wrong? Pro Football Focus analyst Tyler Phillips recently released projected win totals for each team in the NFL for 2025. For the Saints, PFF had them at 5.9 wins. That is slightly above the sportsbook average of 5.5 wins, but essentially the same at somewhere between five and six wins. The main reason that New Orleans is expected to win fewer than six games is not hard to understand. They won five games last year and have a reworked coaching staff with an extremely young quarterback room. Spencer Rattler, having the most in-game experience with six starts, does not exactly scream confidence. There is always the chance that either he or Tyler Shough explodes onto the scene under the tutelage of Kellen Moore, but that is not the type of thing that experts usually count on. In all likelihood, this is just a rebuilding roster that needs some time before they are ready to go on a run. One thing working towards the Saints' favor is that they have one of the easiest schedules in the league. PFF has their strength of schedule at 31st, with the San Francisco 49ers being the only team below them. All of the extreme cold-weather teams that New Orleans plays, like the Buffalo Bills and Chicago Bears, happen before Halloween. It could also help that the second half of the schedule is far easier than the first half, given that the younger players could find a bit of a groove down the stretch. The NFC South is also once again one of the league's weaker conferences. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had the highest win total at 9.4, the Atlanta Falcons had 8.0, and the Carolina Panthers had 6.9. The only teams with a lower win total than the Saints were the New York Giants and Cleveland Browns, who were at 5.9. New Orleans plays the Giants at home in Week 5.
