Less than two months after announcing his retirement from the NFL, Tom Brady decided to come back. He’s returning for his 23rd season, going back to the Buccaneers in pursuit of another Super Bowl ring.
Even though the Rams are 3-0 against Brady since he joined the Buccaneers in 2020, it’s never great to have a quarterback with seven Super Bowl rings back in the same conference. And unsurprisingly, the Buccaneers’ championship odds increased dramatically with Brady back in the mix.
According to Tipico Sportsbook, the Buccaneers’ Super Bowl LVII odds on Feb. 15 were +2000. At that time, the Rams’ odds were +1000.
As of Monday, the Buccaneers’ odds are now tied for the best in the NFL at +750, matching the Bills and Chiefs. The Rams’ odds have dropped slightly to +1200. The Bucs have also overtaken the Rams and are now the favorites to win the NFC next season.
Everyone knew how important Brady was to the Buccaneers’ success, but their odds have really skyrocketed since he announced his return.
