2025 Super Bowl Odds: Packers Favored to Dethrone Chiefs with Jordan Love
The 2024 NFL season is in full swing, and football fans across the country are eagerly watching as all 32 teams battle it out on the gridiron for a shot at the Lombardi Trophy. As the season progresses, the Super Bowl odds for each team are constantly shifting, giving bettors plenty of opportunities to make their predictions on who will be crowned champion at Super Bowl LIX.
To provide some insight into the current landscape of the NFL and the Super Bowl favorites, I reached out to our team of experts at CBS Sports to get their take on the best bets for the upcoming season. With seasoned analysts like Pete Prisco, Joel Magaraci, and Eric Kernish, along with writers Jordan Dajani, Jared Dubin, and Tyler Sullivan, among others, our panel is well-equipped to offer valuable insights into the potential outcomes of the 2024 season.
Before diving into the Super Bowl odds for all 32 teams, let’s take a closer look at some of the top contenders and long-shot picks that our experts have identified as potential winners in the quest for the Lombardi Trophy.
Top Contenders for Super Bowl LIX
**Kansas City Chiefs +575**
Dubin: “I am getting plus money to be on the best player and best team to win the Super Bowl. I will gladly take it.”
Edwards: “No one has ever won three Super Bowls in a row so the feat itself has proven to be impossible thus far. However, the Chiefs did not get measurably worse this offseason and no one in the AFC got measurably better. It is a cowardly, chalk pick but I am not going to choose another team simply for the novelty.”
Kernish: “They’re arguably even better this season, and Patrick Mahomes is extra motivated. Think this team cannot pull off the first three-peat in the Super Bowl era? Bet against them if you wish.”
**San Francisco 49ers +625**
Magaraci: “Now that the 49ers have their bookkeeping in order, they are locked and loaded for another run at the Lombardi Trophy. It might be their last chance.”
**Baltimore Ravens +900**
Podell: “Baltimore lost three key components from the league’s top defense in 2023: defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald, linebacker Patrick Queen, and safety Geno Stone. However, the Ravens offense could soar to new heights because of the burden of being the team’s leading rusher being lifted from Lamar Jackson’s shoulders.”
Benjamin: “They’ve got the reigning MVP, a coach who’s reached the mountaintop before, and a defense that should remain elite. Does Lamar Jackson have big-game questions to answer still? Sure. But unless you’re betting on the Chiefs, is there a ‘safer’ pick in terms of perennial AFC contenders? Baltimore has been in the mix among the elite for years.”
Long-Shot Picks and Value Bets
**Detroit Lions +1000**
Dajani: “I was a Lions doubter last year because of their defensive deficiencies. Still, they made it further than I thought they would. Now, Detroit has upgraded on that side of the ball with players like D.J. Reader, Marcus Davenport, Carlton Davis, and Terrion Arnold.”
**Houston Texans +1300**
Kernish: “If you feel like going a different direction than the Chiefs, taking the Texans at +1300 feels like a wise decision. Yes, they’d have to somehow get past the defending champs, but if they do, they have more than enough on offense and defense to win it all.”
**Cincinnati Bengals +1300**
Breech: “The 2024 season will mark the widest the Bengals’ Super Bowl window has ever been open, and now, they just need to jump through it. If Joe Burrow can stay healthy, he’ll be playing behind the best offensive line he’s ever had and throwing to one of the best receiving duos in the NFL.”
McCarriston: “Joe Burrow is back and in turn I believe the Bengals will be too. Not just back in the playoff race, but back on the big stage at Super Bowl LIX. If anyone is taking down the defending champs, I believe it could be the Bengals.”
**Philadelphia Eagles +1300**
Benjamin: “If all their talent actually translates under a refined coaching staff, it’s gonna be hard to keep them down in the NFC. Could they just as easily implode? Yep. Could they return to form and knock off favorites like the Lions and 49ers this time around? Their lineup suggests they can.”
**Buffalo Bills +1700**
Dubin: “There’s really just no reason for Buffalo to be behind eight teams. The fact that there are five teams in the AFC alone ahead of them seems crazy to me.”
Edwards: “The Bills lost a lot this offseason, but if you have a quarterback like Josh Allen, then you will always have a chance.”
**Green Bay Packers +1700**
Sullivan: “If Jordan Love is the player he was to end last season, he’s more than capable of taking a team on a Super Bowl run. Last season, the Packers were one of the top offenses on third down and I expect they’ll be even better with the arrival of Josh Jacobs out of the backfield.”
Prisco: “They will win the Super Bowl? Why? Jordan Love, a fast group of receivers, and an improved defense.”
DeArdo: “Nice betting odds for a team that ended last season on a tear, shocking the Cowboys in the NFC title game and taking the eventual NFC champion 49ers to the wire a week later.”
Underdogs with Potential
**New York Jets +1700**
Sullivan: “The talent gives this team a Lombardi Trophy ceiling. Defensively, they have a collection of talent that could make them the top unit in the league. Meanwhile, the offensive skill positions are headlined by wideout Garrett Wilson and running back Breece Hall.”
Magaraci: “We are talking about the Jets of course, so this is truly a loooooooong shot. Aaron Rodgers has something to prove and this Jets team has loads of talent on both sides of the ball, so why not?”
**Los Angeles Rams +2500**
Breech: “The Rams were one of the biggest surprises of the 2023 season and they could be an even bigger surprise this year. The Rams have so much offensive firepower that it’s almost unfair with Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua, and Kyren Williams.”
**Miami Dolphins +2500**
McCarriston: “If the Dolphins can learn to win in the cold weather, there is no limit to where they could go. The playoffs have been their Achilles heel, but they have the talent to surprise people this season.”
**Cleveland Browns +4000**
Dajani: “Cleveland had an incredible defense last year that carried the Browns to the playoffs, while a 38-year-old backup quarterback found success in NFL Coach of the Year Kevin Stefanski’s offense.”
**Tampa Bay Buccaneers +9000**
Prisco: “This might seem crazy, but they are the best team in their division — despite what the odds say. The schedule is tough, but they have a great mix of young and old. Baker Mayfield will play well.”
DeArdo: “Of the teams with lower Super Bowl odds, the Buccaneers have the best odds of going all the way. Remember, Tampa upset the Eagles in the playoffs last year and lost a very winnable game a week later in Detroit.”
With a wide range of contenders and long-shot picks to choose from, the 2024 NFL season is shaping up to be an exciting one. As teams battle it out on the field, fans and bettors alike will be eagerly watching to see which team emerges victorious and takes home the coveted Lombardi Trophy at Super Bowl LIX.
