The 49ers are the +225 favorites at DraftKings
to return to the title game, but they are only third among NFC
teams with 12 percent of the money backing them to make it to
New Orleans for Super Bowl LIX in February.
It's the Lions who have garnered by far the most money, with 28
percent at +550 odds to claim the NFC title. That's well ahead
of the Philadelphia Eagles, with 17 percent of the money backing
them at +600.
However, San Francisco does remain in the lead in terms of total
bets to win the conference. The 49ers have drawn 26 percent,
ahead of the Lions at 24 percent and the Eagles at 17 percent.
The third-shortest odds to win the NFC belong to Dallas at +700.
But the Cowboys have drawn very modest support at the book, with
4 percent of the total bets and 5 percent of the money.
The fourth most popular pick has been the Green Bay Packers, who
have been backed by 11 percent of both markets at +800. The
Chicago Bears have also been popular with 9 percent of the money
backing their longshot odds of +1500 under the direction of
rookie quarterback Caleb Williams.
