Even after losing Sunday’s Super Bowl to the Philadelphia Eagles, the New England Patriots have 5/1 odds of winning their sixth Super Bowl title in Super Bowl LIII, according to Odds Shark.

The Bill Belichick and Tom Brady led Patriots have the best odds for next year’s championship game followed by the Eagles (7/1), Green Bay Packers (8/1), Pittsburgh Steelers (10/1) and Minnesota Vikings (12/1).

The Atlanta Falcons, who lost to the champion Eagles in the Divisional Playoff round, are given 20-to-1 odds to win next year’s NFL title game at Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

The full odds that were determined before the Eagles' 41-33 win can be read on Odds Shark's website.
