AFC North Odds
Cincinnati Bengals Win Division
Baltimore Ravens
With two of the past four AFC North titles, the Baltimore Ravens combination of Lamar Jackson and John Harbaugh has been a viable and profitable duo for bettors over nearly a half-decade. Baltimore Ravens sportsbooks believed in the duo once again this season, as the team was the betting favorite for the AFC North entering this season with +145 odds. Other preseason odds had the Ravens as a strong team as well, with their +2000 Super Bowl and +900 were also the shortest in the AFC North heading into the season. As the current campaign continues to play out, updated odds on the Baltimore Ravens will be available on this page.
Cincinnati Bengals
Despite coming off their first Super Bowl appearance since 1988, Cincinnati Bengals gave the Joe Burrow-led group +175 odds to win the AFC North, +1100 odds to reach the Super Bowl and win the AFC Championship, and +2200 odds to win the Big Game heading into the season. Since then, injuries to Ja'Marr Chase and Chidobe Awuzie have greatly influenced the Bengals' futures odds, as has the play of the team and its competitors. Updated Cincinnati Bengals futures odds will be available above and below this section.
Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns came into the 2022-23 season with their futures odds longer than in years past across the board. Cleveland entered the year with +4000 odds to win the Super Bowl (up from +1600 last season), +2200 odds to win the AFC Championship (up from +750), and +375 odds to win the AFC North (up from +150). Those odds have changed throughout the season, with the Browns' odds having the interesting distinction of not necessarily suffering with each loss as long as they are reasonably within playoff contention by the time Deshaun Watson is back from his suspension in Week 12.
Pittsburgh Steelers
A season of firsts for the Pittsburgh Steelers as the City of Champions' team entered the 2022-23 season with their longest odds in franchise history to win the Super Bowl (+9000), the AFC Championship (+5000), and the AFC North (+900). With Pittsburgh fielding a young team headlined by Kenny Pickett, Dionte Johnson, and George Pickens those odds have continued to fluctuate, with the most common talking points surrounding the Steelers this season more on their win total. Head Coach Mike Tomlin has never had a losing record as a Head Coach, but their preseason wins total of 7.5 indicated it was more likely than not in the cards this season. Updated win total odds on the Steelers are available below.
