The Arizona Cardinals are a slight favorite to win Super Bowl 50. | AP

Before the NFL season began, the Arizona Cardinals were anywhere from 30-1 to 50-1 to win the Super Bowl. As it stands today, the Cardinals at 5-1 are the slight favorite to win Super Bowl 50, according to MyTopSportsBooks.com.

The Patriots had been the favorite most of the season until several key injuries set them back. The Panthers became a slight favorite a few weeks ago but slipped after losing their first game to the Falcons.
