NFL 2026 NFC Division Winners Way Too Early Betting Odds & Picks

We’re now two full weeks removed from that snooze-fest of a Super Bowl in San Francisco. Congratulations to the Seattle Seahawks. But it’s time to move on to what’s coming next: the 2026 NFL season. The national scouting combine has already gotten underway in Indy, for crying out loud.

NFL betting odds on season-long futures props like Super Bowl 61 winner or 2026 NFL MVP are already available as well. We’ve already handicapped the early odds on those markets, so we move on here to the division winner futures betting markets for the NFC.

Will it be the Eagles, Bears, Panthers, and Seahawks that emerge with division crowns again after winning their respective divisions in 2025? Check out the odds as well as our best bet for each division as we sit here just over six months out from the start of the 2026 campaign.

NFL 2026 NFC Division Winners Way Too Early Betting Odds & Picks

All betting odds provided by Betway.

NFC East Division Winner Odds

This is likely to be one of the most competitive divisions in the league, but the Eagles still have the shortest division winner odds in the NFC. At +105, they are not offering much value. However, 2026 feels like it’s going to be a bounce back year for the Eagles. They still have all the talent in the world, and if they can maintain that offensive line they should be better than they were last year.

That off-field drama generally doesn’t spill over into multiple seasons. The odds aren’t great, but the Commanders need a major roster overhaul, the Giants are completely unproven, and the Cowboys have the same issues they had at the start of the 2025 campaign.

Best Bet: Philadelphia Eagles (+105)

NFC North Division Winner Odds

This is one of the toughest divisions to call because if the Vikings can figure out the QB position, there are legitimately four teams that could win this division. However, we generally agree with how Canadian sportsbooks are handicapping this one. The Bears had a Cinderella season in 2025; they will crash back down to Earth. The Packers just feel like a second-place team.

Despite Detroit finishing last in this division just a year ago, we can see them going worst to first—the Bears did just that last year. Not to mention the Lions will get to play a fourth-place schedule which, as the Patriots proved, can be a massive boon for regular season success.

Best Bet: Detroit Lions (+165)

NFC South Division Winner Odds

This is one of the most interesting divisions when you look at these odds. It’s not often that a team that won the division the previous year sits last in odds to win it the following year. That’s where the Carolina Panthers find themselves, however.

Putting them behind the Falcons and the Saints is certainly a choice. Carolina was just 8-9 last year, but they won the division and very nearly beat the Rams in the playoffs. They ended the year on a massively positive note. We think that will propel them to another playoff appearance. The Panthers have become a pretty decent destination for free agents for the first time in a while as well.

Best Bet: Carolina Panthers (+550)

NFC West Division Winner Odds

The Seahawks took advantage of a down year among the usual contending suspects in the NFL last year. They are still an excellent team, but we can see a Super Bowl hangover hitting them in 2026. It doesn’t help their case that the Rams are bringing back the same band in 2026 and the 49ers can’t possibly be as injured as they were in 2025.

The 49ers are a fun dark horse candidate here, but the safe bet is that those tight games go their way next year and they take the division on their way to bigger accolades.

Best Bet: Los Angeles Rams (+160)
