Updated Super Bowl XLII odds: Here comes the Pack; plenty of room on that Tennessee bandwagon

Courtesy MGM Mirage (as of July 15):

Patriots: 3-1
Chargers: 11-2
Colts: 13-2
Cowboys: 11-2
Jaguars: 8-1
Packers: 10-1
Steelers: 10-1
Vikings: 10-1
Giants: 12-1
Seahawks: 12-1
Bears: 15-1
Browns: 15-1
Eagles: 15-1
Saints: 15-1
Jets: 20-1
Buccaneers: 24-1
Broncos: 25-1
Redskins: 28-1
Raiders: 30-1
Ravens: 30-1
Panthers: 35-1
Bengals: 40-1
Texans: 40-1
Cardinals: 45-1
Titans: 45-1
Bills: 50-1
Dolphins: 50-1
49ers: 50-1
Rams: 50-1
Lions: 60-1
Chiefs: 80-1
Falcons: 125-1

Note the drop in the Packers' Super Bowl odds; the Mirage had them at 20-1 to win the title in May. I guess this has something to do with their potentially improved QB depth, no?

Also, the Giants continue to get no love. The Cowboys, Vikings and Cowboys all have lower odds to win the title.  

The Colts' price would figure to float up if there are any questions whatsoever about Peyton Manning's status for the opening weeks of the season. Their odds remain unchanged from late May.  

Only three playoff teams from a season ago -- Tampa Bay (24-1), Washington (28-1) and Tennessee (45-1) -- are lower than 12-1 on the line. In horse betting terms, the Titans are dead on the board; they opened at 30-1 and have floated up to their curent price.
