MINNEAPOLIS -- Injury issues and an undistinguished preseason haven't hurt the Minnesota Vikings much in Las Vegas.

The Bodog Sportsbook on Thursday released odds that put the Vikings at 12-to-1 to win Super Bowl XLV.

Only six teams have shorter odds: Indianapolis (17-2), Dallas (10-1), Green Bay (10-1), New Orleans (10-1), Baltimore (11-1) and San Diego (11-1). New England and the New York Jets join the Vikings at 12-to-1, with no other team at better than 22-to-1.

The Vikings are 11-to-2 to win the NFC championship (Dallas is the favorite at 9-2) and 7-to-5 to win the NFC North Division (Green Bay is even money). The over/under on their win total is 9½.

Bodog also set up over/under prop bets on a bunch of Vikings players, including:

• QB Brett Favre: 3,850 passing yards, 28½ touchdown passes, 14½ interceptions.

• RB Adrian Peterson: 1,450 rushing yards, 13½ rushing touchdowns.

• WR Percy Harvin: 65 receptions, 825 receiving yards, 5½ receiving touchdowns.

• WR Bernard Berrian: 750 receiving yards, 4½ receiving touchdowns.

• DE Jared Allen: 13 sacks.

• DE Ray Edwards: 6½ sacks.

Favre and Peterson both are 15-to-1 to win NFL MVP honors.
