Of course these odds do not represent the real odds to win the Super Bowl. There is actual real odds where money is legally bet, and money won and lost. The Bears are 14-1, the Lions are 100-1, in real life.

I know that it has become the in thing to do here, to post anti-Bear stuff, but this is just inaccurate.

That’s not surprising in the slightest. Both teams have far better QBs than the Bears and this is a QB league these days.

They don't, at all lol. To be clear, the same service in September last year ranked the Bears 29th. You got the wrong guy if you think I really care what any service thinks out there. Just pointing out it is fictional for them to list their own fictitious odds. They can make projections all they want, they can only make odds if they are making a market and allowing people to bet on them.

OP, this just isn't accurate at all and/or is outdated. Everywhere I look has us as better odds than both the Detroit and the Packers.

I don't think the Lions have a better chance than the Bears of winning the Super Bowl. Quite the opposite. I think the Bears have a better chance of winning the Super Bowl than the Lions. So I disagree with this article. I think it's misguided and wrong, and I think making monetary bets based on its advice is a fool's errand.

So Detroit and Green Bay have a better chance than the bears but not Minnesota? There’s stupid shit and then whatever that is.

I'm kind of shocked that whatever algorithm/data that they use would lead to these percentages. They must really believe that this season will be injury plagued & the offense will regress.
