The 2024 NFL season is set to kick off in less than two months, and bettors are already placing their bets on which teams they think will succeed and which ones will struggle. One market that bettors are looking at is the fewest regular-season wins, and currently, the New England Patriots are the favorites to have the fewest wins.
After parting ways with veteran coach Bill Belichick in January, the Patriots named former assistant Jerod Mayo as his successor. Despite Mayo’s past success with the team, the odds makers are predicting a tough season for the Patriots.
Here are the odds for the teams most likely to finish at the bottom of the standings in the upcoming season:
– Patriots: +340
– Panthers: +550
– Broncos: +600
– Titans: +800
– Giants: +1000
– Commanders: +1100
– Vikings: +1100
– Raiders: +1200
– Cardinals: +1700
– Steelers: +2000
– Buccaneers: +2200
– Seahawks: +2200
– Saints: +2500
– Colts: +2500
– Browns: +4000
The Patriots are at the top of the list with +340 odds, indicating that they are the favorites to have the fewest wins in the 2024 season. While the team has secured contracts for many of their key players, there are still uncertainties, such as the status of Pro Bowl edge Matthew Judon.
The Panthers follow closely behind the Patriots with +550 odds. However, some experts, like pro bettor Adam Chernoff, believe that the Panthers could surprise this season and compete for a wild card spot in the NFC. Chernoff praised the coaching staff led by Dave Canales and believes that they have the potential to turn things around for the team.
As the NFL season approaches, bettors will be keeping a close eye on these odds and the performances of the teams. It will be interesting to see if the favorites live up to expectations or if there will be any surprises in the upcoming season. Stay tuned for more updates and analysis as the season progresses.
