As the Kansas City Chiefs celebrate their recent Super Bowl victory, football franchises are already eyeing the next championship opportunity. Super Bowl LVIII is scheduled to take place in Las Vegas on February 11, 2024. Oddsmakers have already begun speculating on the favorites for the upcoming event, with the Chiefs and Bills emerging as the top contenders.
We’ll take a brief look at the Super Bowl LVIII odds and explore which teams are expected to shine in the next NFL season.
Favorites to Win Super Bowl LVIII
After their triumphant victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII, the Kansas City Chiefs have quickly become the front-runners to secure back-to-back titles. According to PointsBet, the Chiefs, led by the exceptionally skilled Patrick Mahomes, are currently positioned at the forefront with +600 odds to emerge victorious in Super Bowl LVIII.
Following the Chiefs, several teams that made impressive playoff runs in the previous season are also viewed as strong contenders. The San Francisco 49ers and Buffalo Bills come in next on the list, both with +750 odds. The Cincinnati Bengals (+900) and Philadelphia Eagles (+850) round up the top five, displaying promising potential for the upcoming season.
These are the teams with the worst odds to win Super Bowl LVIII
On the other end of the spectrum, the Arizona Cardinals and Houston Texans find themselves with the least favorable Super Bowl odds for the upcoming season, both standing at +20000.
After a challenging season, the Houston Texans faced difficulties, concluding with a record of 3-13-1. As a consequence of their disappointing performance, head coach Lovie Smith was dismissed from his position following Week 18. While the Texans had a chance to secure the first overall draft pick in 2023, their unexpected triumph against division rivals, the Indianapolis Colts, propelled them to the second overall selection instead.
Similarly, it will be a difficult road for the Arizona Cardinals after quarterback Kyler Murray’s ACL injury. With new head coach Jonathan Gannon, the Cardinals will have to overcome significant challenges to compete in the 2023 season.
