The early NFL odds for the Superbowl was the AFC team to beat the NFC team by 10 points. With the Colts losing to the Steelers, this spread has been trashed. The Colts are known for being a high explosive offense that wins their games large and with them having been the favorite to make it to the Superbowl, the spread was 10. Without them in the playoffs, I guarantee you the spread will no longer be 10 for the AFC team.

The Steelers are Broncos are very legitimate AFC teams but public perception goes a long way in inducing NFL Superbowl Odds. In fact, Las Vegas is going to shade the line on the the public team in the Superbowl. I would even go so far as to say that if the Steelers made it to the Superbowl, that they could even be underdogs to the Seattle Seahawks.

My advice to anybody in the future years is when they see an early betting line like this AFC -10, to go against the public perception. The best bet in the early line would be to take the NFC at +10 because the line was completely formulated based on the assumption the Indianapolis Colts were making it to the Superbowl. There is value if they do not. With a Broncos and Steelers matchup possibly being a 3-7 point spread, you can take the AFC team and hope for a middling situation. A middling situation is when you both on both sides of a game and win both of them.
