The NFL is down to its final eight teams in the race for the Lombardi trophy. While the playoffs’ wild card round only produced a pair of upsets, there promises to be some closer games during the divisional round. So, let’s look at who has the best odds to win the 2025 Super Bowl in New Orleans.
Odds to win the 2025 Super Bowl
- Detroit Lions +290
- Kansas City Chiefs +350
- Philadelphia Eagles +450
- Baltimore Ravens +475
- Buffalo Bills +550
- Los Angeles Rams +2,000
- Washington Commanders +3,000
- Houston Texans +5,500
The top favorite on the board, the Detroit Lions, is one of three NFL teams that have never played in a Super Bowl—the Jacksonville Jaguars and Houston Texans are the others. Detroit is +290 to win it all in New Orleans, meaning a $100 bet on the Lions will net you $290.
Lions quarterback Jared Goff says they’re rested and ready as the No. 1 seed in the NFC. “We came into this year ready for games like this, ready for games like last week, ready for these big-time games and wanted to have everything run through Detroit and now have the opportunity to do that,” said Goff. “It’s right here in front of us and we have to go take advantage of it.“
The second biggest favorite is trying to make a different kind of history. The Kansas City Chiefs aim to become the first franchise to win three straight Super Bowls. A $100 bet on the Chiefs will earn you $350.
As division winners, the next two teams, the Eagles and Ravens, are similarly priced at +450 and +475. Those two teams will lean on their MVP candidates, Saquon Barkley for the Eagles and Lamar Jackson for the Ravens, to lead them to the promised land.
However, Baltimore faces a possible issue as they meet the next team on the list, the Buffalo Bills—who are at +550 to win the Super Bowl—at home on Sunday, Jan. 19. The Bills also have an MVP candidate in quarterback Josh Allen, though he did not have the best day during a loss to the Ravens back in September.
On Wednesday, Jan. 15, Allen discussed the rematch Wednesday, saying, “Their defense the last eight to 10 weeks has been superb, their offense is fantastic as well –– they got a lot of studs over there –– led by Lamar, obviously. It’s a tough team to play regardless.“
And don’t forget about the three long shots.
The Los Angeles Rams and Washington Commanders have already pulled playoff upsets. They’ll both be on the road for the divisional round, as will the Houston Texans. They have the biggest payoff on the board at +5,500. The Texans take on the Chiefs for the second time in a month after losing 27-19 in Kansas City on Dec. 21.
