Commanders eye Super Bowl, long-shot history
Briefly

The Washington Commanders are on the brink of a remarkable postseason, facing the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship Game. Initially starting the season with 150-1 odds to win the Super Bowl and drifting to 250-1, the Commanders have gained unexpected popularity among bettors, even outselling other teams at BetMGM. A significant $500 bet was made on them back in August. Reaching the Super Bowl would tie them with the 1999 Rams for the longest preseason odds in NFL history since the schedule change in 1978.
Washington Commanders, once a 150-1 long shot for the Super Bowl, could become one of the biggest preseason underdog success stories in NFL history.
With a win against the Eagles, Washington could tie the 1999 Rams for the longest preseason odds for a Super Bowl participant since 1978.
