As the NFL prepares for the divisional round of the playoffs, there seems to be a good amount of parity right now, as there are multiple teams that seem to have a real shot at winning the Super Bowl championship.

The matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills has been called by some as the real AFC Championship Game, while the two-time defending world champion Kansas City Chiefs lurk on the other side of the bracket.

In the NFC, the Detroit Lions are gearing up for a run at their first trip to the Super Bowl, and the Philadelphia Eagles could be the Super Bowl contender people aren’t talking much about.

According to DraftKings odds, the Lions remain the favorites to win it all, with the Chiefs right behind them, per NBC Sports Bet.

The Lions were picked by plenty of people to win the Vince Lombardi Trophy dating back to this past summer, and it is no wonder why, as they went 12-5 last season and were minutes away from punching their ticket to the big game.

This year, despite plenty of injuries to their defense, they went 15-2, tying Kansas City for the best record in the league, and they destroyed the Minnesota Vikings in Week 18 with the NFC North title on the line.

Kansas City has won a lot of games this season by the skin of their teeth, but they know how to prevail in big games, and their defense has remained rock solid.

Philly and Baltimore have strong running games and dual-threat quarterbacks, not to mention underrated defenses, and both teams could very well end up meeting in New Orleans next month for all the marbles.
