Every NFL Team’s Odds to Make the Playoffs in 2024 Season

The NFL offseason continues on but with teams gearing up for next season we have odds for who will make the postseason.

One of the most hotly contested divisions in the 2024 season is the NFC East, which features the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys.

The Eagles made a splash in free agency by adding running back Saquon Barkley as well as hiring former Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore. Can the Eagles hold off the Cowboys in hopes of getting back on top of the division and make the postseason?

There will be plenty of heated races in the postseason in addition to the NFC East one mentioned above, including a crowded group in the AFC East and AFC North.

Below you will find the odds for each team to make the postseason in 2024.

There are a ton of quality teams heading into the season with the postseason in its sights.

Look at the AFC East, who have three teams projected to make the postseason in terms of implied probability greater than 50%. The Dolphins have an implied probability of 57.38%, the Bills are 62.69% and the Jets are slightly ahead, listed at 62.96%.

Elsewhere, the AFC North has three teams with heavy odds to contend for the postseason, with its longest shot, the Steelers at only +190 (34.48%). The Ravens (72.60%), Bengals (70.15%) and Browns (42.37%) all have more than a puncher's chance to make the postseason.

The NFC East race is for the division, but both are expected to make the postseason in a much weaker conference, will the two be able to hold up? The Eagles and Cowboys each have mandates to win and better hope to at least make the postseason in order to keep the status quo.

Saquon Barkley Blasted Giants Fans Angry He Was Cheering on the 76ers

Saquon Barkley took to Twitter to blast New York Giants fans Thursday night. They believed they had been given another reason to be angry at him and he urged them to get over it.

Barkley was at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia as the 76ers took on the New York Knicks in Game 6 of their first round NBA playoff series. A newly-minted member of the Philadelphia Eagles, Barkley was there to cheer on the Sixers as they attempted to keep the series alive.

Giants fans couldn't believe he was in attendance rooting on a rival and made a big stink about it on social media. In response to the hate he was getting online, Barkley tweeted the following.

It’s been two months… lol no way ya can still be this mad! Mf can’t even go to a basketball game 😂😂😂

After six seasons with the Giants, the two-time Pro Bowler left the franchise to join the rival Eagles this offseason. After years of attempting to get a long-term contract out of the Giants, Philadelphia handed him a three-year, $37.75 million deal and he jumped on it. Barkley grew up in Pennsylvania and starred at Penn State, so the move to Philly is also something of a homecoming.

When a Giants fan accused Barkley of bailing on New York, he had a sharp reply. The 27-year-old running back said, "Let me educate some of you fans here... I can't bail or become a traitor if I never got an offer to come back... so I went to the organization I felt that was the best and after already being here for a month man I'm excited to be a eagle ! Go birds."

He does have a point. The relationship with the Giants felt broken when the two sides couldn't agree to a long term deal for more than a year. He played the 2023 season on the non-exclusive franchise tag and New York showed no urgency to lock him up. Maybe he's right that Giants fans should hurry up and get over his departure.
