NFL Week 17 Odds
We’ve finally reached the conclusion of the 2008 NFL Season, so don’t miss out on any of the week’s final action. Oddsmakers have released the point spreads and over/under totals for Week 17.
There are huge playoff implications this week for some NFC teams. The Minnesota Vikings need a win over the New York Giants in order to clinch the NFC North. Oddsmakers from online sports book Sports Interaction have made the Vikings –6.5 point favorites because the Giants could rest starters. If the Vikings lose, it opens the door for the Chicago Bears to win the division if they can beat the Houston Texans, who have opened as –3 point favorites.
The NFC South is still up for grabs as well, as the Carolina Panthers still need a win over the New Orleans Saints to clinch the division. The Panthers have opened as –3 point road favorites.
If the Panthers lose, the Atlanta Falcons still have a shot to win the NFC South with a win over the hapless St. Louis Rams. The Falcons are currently –15 point favorites and with a win coupled with a Carolina lose, Atlanta would not only win their division but also earn a first round bye in the playoffs as the No. 2 seed.
The Baltimore Ravens could clinch a playoff berth with a win over the Jacksonville Jaguars at home. Baltimore is currently a –12.5 point favorite, while the over/under total has been set at 36.
