Super Bowl odds 2022: Teams that improving, dropping headed into Week 3, what Trey Lance's injury means

The NFL returned for Week 2 and 14 of the first 16 games are official a wrap. The week wraps up with a doubleheader of featuring the Titans vs. the Bills and the Vikings vs. the Eagles. In the meantime, plenty happened on Thursday and Sunday to re-assess where things stand in the Super Bowl race

The biggest news is the Trey Lance injury. The 49ers second-year quarterback broke his ankle and will miss the rest of the season. Jimmy Garoppolo is back in the saddle and guided the 49ers to a 27-7 win over the Seahawks on Sunday. The 49ers Super Bowl odds improved from +2200 to +2000 with the win. Garoppolo brings a potentially lower ceiling than Lance but he brings a higher floor given his experience and being a part of two NFC title game (and one Super Bowl) teams.

The Cowboys stunned the Bengals on Sunday and while their odds dropped from +2200 to +3500 due to the Dak Prescott injury, Cooper Rush looked solid in his second career start. He's not the guy who will lead them to a Super Bowl, but his Week 3 performance suggests he can keep them alive in the NFC East race.

The Broncos saw their odds drop from +1800 to +2500 in spite of a win over the Texans. They looked atrocious and it's hard to see where improvement will come from. Nathaniel Hackett is not good at situational football and Russell Wilson is looking a little cooked.

The other big improvement this week saw the Giants go from +13000 to +7000 as they improved to 2-0. They beat the Panthers following a Week 1 upset of the Titans. It wasn't pretty and they've got a long way to go, but the Giants are looking like they won't be the worst team in the league.

Here's a full list of Super Bowl 57 odds heading into Week 3, and how they compare with the first two weeks.
