The NFL playoff odds are on the move as we've crossed the midway point of the 2026-27 season.
The Baltimore Ravens' stock fell off a cliff following a thumb injury to Lamar Jackson that could sideline the former MVP for the season. They fell from 86% just two weeks ago to 15%.
Let's take a look at the latest NFL playoff odds.

NFL playoffs odds movement
- The Rams have taken their backers on a rollercoaster ride. They started the season near the top, fell to mid-pack at 54% two weeks ago, and are now back to 72%.
- The Colts have gone from 26% to 2% after a 35-point loss to the Jaguars.
- The Vikings fell from 79% to 71% following their first loss of the season.
- Caleb Williams' return has righted the ship in Chicago, with the Bears going from 54% to 74% over the last two weeks.
NFL playoff predictions
The Seahawks are 21st in remaining strength of schedule. The only games they really have to worry about are two with the Rams, and one at 49ers, albeit off a bye.
Seattle is first in yards allowed per play by a wide margin (4.2 vs. the Vikings' 4.7 mark in second place). Play to 60%.
Pick: Seahawks to make the playoffs (55% at Kalshi)
Pick made on 11-3.

NFL playoffs format
The NFL playoffs expanded prior to the 2020 season and will run the same format in 2026-27, with 14 teams in the postseason — seven from each conference.
In each conference, the division winners will comprise the Nos. 1-4 spots, while the Nos. 5-7 spots will come via wild cards. The top seed in both the AFC and the NFC will get a first-round bye, with the other matchups proceeding as follows:
- No. 2 seed vs. No. 7 seed (lowest-ranked wild card)
- No. 3 seed vs. No. 6 seed
- No. 4 seed (lowest-ranked division winner) vs. No. 5 seed (highest-ranked wild card)
After the first round, the No. 1 seed will face the lowest remaining seed in their conference, while the other two teams will square off. Those winners will meet in the conference championship, and then the winners of those games — the AFC and NFC champions — will meet at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif., on Feb. 14, 2027.
