Odds to win the Super Bowl

Here is a futures report with current Super Bowl odds for every pro football team remaining in the race for the Lombardi Trophy. We also dish out consistent betting updates on the state of affairs for each National Football League squad still standing.

Philadelphia Eagles ( )

Any doubts about how the Eagles finished the regular season were put to bed when they dominated the Giants, 38-7, with 268 rushing yards, 17 rushing first downs, and a 10-for-14 conversion rate on third down. Stud tackle Lane Johnson (abdomen) said his pain had subsided ahead of the game and Jalen Hurts (shoulder) showcased his usual toughness with 38 rushing yards and a TD on the ground. Rushing dominance might not be as easy to come by in the NFC Championship Game against the second-rated 49ers rushing defense. Their team total is set at 23.5 points with -135 odds at DraftKings for the Eagles to score over 2.5 touchdowns points against San Francisco. The NFC title game is expected to be relatively even with oddsmakers offering +300 for the Eagles to win both halves.

Kansas City Chiefs ( )

While the Chiefs handled the Jaguars to reach a fifth straight AFC Championship, Patrick Mahomes suffered a high-ankle sprain injury in the process. The likely regular season MVP said he plans to play on Sunday in a rematch with Joe Burrow and a Bengals team that came back from an early 21-3 deficit to beat the Chiefs, 27-24, in OT in the AFC title game last January. Kansas City will host this game (rather than playing at a neutral site) and Mahomes is 9-2 in home playoff games with a 112.7 passer rating and 68.3% completion rate. The Bengals held Mahomes to 223 passing yards when these teams met in Week 13 at Cincinnati. Both teams are projected for 23.5 points and there is an appealing market for both teams to score 20-plus points (+120) or 25-plus points (+400) in this contest at DraftKings. However, the early forecast calls for 20-degree temperatures, 15 MPH winds, and snow showers on Sunday in KC.

Cincinnati Bengals ( )

The Bengals continued to exceed expectations with a convincing win at Buffalo and they’re now 5-1 against the spread in the playoffs since last year. Joe Burrow and company have won three straight against the Chiefs, including a 27-24 win at KC in the AFC title game last year. The Bengals are 10-1 ATS in non-division games and 3-0 ATS as underdogs this year. They are +1 at the Chiefs at most books, thanks in part to the injury suffered by Mahomes. The total for the AFC Championship opened at 52.5 points, but was quickly bet down to 47.5 points with inclement weather in the forecast. Burrow was able to pass for 242 yards and 2 TDs and the Bengals rushed for 172 yards at a 5.1 YPC in Buffalo despite missing three linemen due to long-term injuries. La’El Collins (knee) is on I.R. and backup LT Jonah Williams (knee) couldn’t play last week. Williams and RG Alex Cappa (ankle) might get upgraded to questionable ahead of the AFC Championship. The Bengals are getting +205 odds to score first and win and +390 odds to win both halves at Arrowhead.

San Francisco 49ers ( )

The Niners have won 13 straight games and are scoring 32.2 PPG since Brock Purdy took over under center in Week 14. They’re still getting the longest odds to win the Super Bowl with a rookie QB under center, as they opened as 1.5-point underdogs in Philadelphia next Sunday and are shifting up to 3-point dogs at some books. The Niners allowed 96 rushing YPG at a 3.5 YPC on the road this season. They are 3-4 ATS on the road, compared to 9-2 ATS at home this year including playoffs. Christian McCaffrey has found the end zone in eight straight appearances for San Francisco and he’s getting the shortest odds (-120 at DraftKings) as an anytime TD scorer on Championship Weekend. McCaffrey appeared to be dealing with a calf issue down the stretch against Dallas. The Niners are getting +300 odds to win with the game going under a projected total of 45.5 points.

Super Bowl spread

With the Super Bowl being the most bet sporting event of the year, it’s no wonder that sportsbooks already have point spreads up for matchups that might not even transpire. FanDuel Sportsbook posted Super Bowl lines for all four potential matchups, which you can view below.

Chiefs +1 vs. Eagles -1

This would be dubbed the Andy Reid Bowl as Big Red would square off against the franchise he coached from 1999 – 2012. The Chiefs and Eagles faced one another in 2021 with Kansas City winning on the road, 42-30. Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts both enjoyed big individual days as Mahomes threw 5 TD passes and Hurts aired it out for 387 yards.

Bengals +1.5 vs. Eagles -1.5

This battle would feature Joe Burrow against Jalen Hurts. Burrow was the first overall pick of the 2022 NFL Draft while Hurts went in the second round. The Bengals and Eagles haven’t met since early in the COVID-impacted 2020 season where Philadelphia and Cincinnati played to a 23-23 tie. Burrow drew the start as a rookie in that game, throwing for 312 yards and 2 TDs on 31-of-44 passing. Hurts had 2 carries for 5 yards in the game but this was still when Carson Wentz was prominently under center for the Birds.

Chiefs -1.5 vs. 49ers +1.5

This would be a rematch from the Super Bowl three years ago in which the Chiefs were victorious, 31-20. These are much different teams these days as the Chiefs no longer employ Tyreek Hill and the 49ers have Brock Purdy under center.

Bengals +1 vs. 49ers -1

The Bengals and 49ers played in a classic late in the year last season. San Francisco went into Cincinnati in December and toppled the Bengals, 26-23, in overtime. Here we look at how much Super Bowl odds have changed throughout the NFL season.

How Super Bowl betting odds changed throughout the season

Philadelphia Eagles: The Eagles were getting +4000 odds to win the Super Bowl at the start of the offseason, and they shifted to +2200 after GM Howie Roseman made a slew of good offseason moves. When Jalen Hurts and company started rolling through the competition, the Eagles’ odds shortened quickly to +850, then +500, then eventually down to +400 on Dec. 19 when they held a 13-1 record. Hurts suffered a shoulder injury and they struggled without him, but still entered the playoffs at +500. San Francisco 49ers: The Niners didn’t see much movement this offseason after opening at +1400 to win the Super Bowl and they slowly climbed higher on odds boards early in the season. Their biggest shift came after Jimmy Garoppolo (foot) was lost for the season in Week 12, when they dropped from +650 to +1200. Brock Purdy proved to be an upgrade at QB and the Niners won 7 straight to close the regular season, becoming the NFC favorites in the process with +450 odds to win the Super Bowl entering the playoffs. Kansas City Chiefs: The Chiefs opened in late January as the favorites to win it all with +700 odds at DraftKings. They shifted down to +750 in the offseason, then dropped to +1000 when Tyreek Hill was traded to the Dolphins. Patrick Mahomes and company quickly dispelled that notion by rolling to a 5-1 start. Their odds quickly shortened to +650 and moved up to +800 when they lost to the Bills. Then the Chiefs finished on a 10-1 run and clinched the No. 1 seed, slowly moving past the Bills as the favorites with +300 odds to win it all. Cincinnati Bengals: The Bengals made a surprising run to the Super Bowl last season but only opened at +1400 to win it the following year. They shifted to +2200 by the start of the year and dropped to +3500 after starting 0-2. Trailing the Ravens in the AFC North for most of the season, the Bengals didn’t get below +2000 until Week 12, then they kept dropping to +800 after beating the Chiefs in a third straight matchup, and clinching their division for a second straight year. Here is a snapshot of how much each team’s Super Bowl odds changed month-to-month. Team Super Bowl Odds: September 8 Super Bowl Odds: October 11 Super Bowl Odds: November 14 Super Bowl Odds: December 19 Super Bowl Odds: January 17 Super Bowl Odds: January 23 Chiefs +1000 +650 +500 +500 +300 +260 49ers +1600 +1400 +1000 +650 +450 +330 Eagles +2200 +650 +500 +400 +500 +250 Bengals +2200 +3000 +2800 +850 +800 +275 Odds to win the Super Bowl throughout the season: All 32 NFL teams Throughout this past year, TheLines kept track of odds to win Super Bowl 57 for all 32 NFL teams.

Super Bowl line

The line for this year’s Super Bowl will be posted immediately following the AFC Championship Game on Sunday, Jan. 29. Below is a look at last year’s Big Game and how the odds for the Rams vs. Bengals Super Bowl changed in the days leading up to kickoff. The Bengals opened as +4 underdogs against the Rams. Rams vs. Bengals Super Bowl spread Sunday, January 30: Rams -4, Bengals +4

The narrative heading into last year’s Big Game

After getting crushed, 41-16, in Cleveland heading into their bye in Week 10, the Bengals had +6000 odds to win the Super Bowl. That was actually a marked improvement from where they opened the season (+10000) and their odds dropped to +15000 at some books following a Week 2 loss at Chicago. Joe Burrow led his team to three straight wins to make the playoffs, and the Bengals still opened the postseason as a longshot with +2000 odds entering Wild Card weekend. After beating the Raiders and upsetting the Titans, they were listed as 7.5-point underdogs in Kansas City and their odds were the longest (+750) of the remaining four teams. The Bengals were getting +450 odds to win the Super Bowl with the Chiefs (+125) getting the shortest odds of the remaining teams. Now the Bengals are underdogs once again with +160 odds on the moneyline to take down the Rams on their home turf. The Rams opened as 4-point favorites with a total hovering around 50 points. The Rams have been in the mix of favorites for a full year thanks to their trade for Matthew Stafford last winter. LA had odds at +1400 to win the Super Bowl just prior to the start of the regular season. With Stafford looking great out of the gates, their odds dropped to +700 following a Week 3 win over the defending champion Bucs, and they held steady despite a couple of early hiccups. When the Rams traded for Von Miller and Odell Beckham Jr. ahead of the deadline, their odds dropped to their lowest point (+650) during the regular season. Things didn’t click right away and the Rams dropped three straight games before winning five of their last six to clinch the NFC West. They entered Wild Card weekend with +850 odds to win it all and were getting +200 odds to get past the 49ers and win the Super Bowl ahead of the NFC Championship game. After overcoming a 10-point fourth quarter deficit against the Niners, the Rams will play in their second Super Bowl in four years. The Rams opened around -200 on the moneyline.

How to bet on the Super Bowl

One of the main ways to bet on the Super Bowl is through futures bets. Sportsbooks have odds for who will win the Super Bowl throughout the year. In fact, in late January and early February most books have odds to win the current season’s Super Bowl as well as the following year’s Big Game. Super Bowl odds appear in different ways at different sportsbooks. At most US sports betting outlets they will appear as such:

Super Bowl odds

Bills (+550)

Buccaneers (+700)

Chiefs (+1000)

Packers (+1000)

Rams (+1200)

Chargers (+1400)

You may also see Super Bowl odds appear like this:

Super Bowl 57 odds

Bills (11-2)

Buccaneers (7-1)

Chiefs (10-1)

Packers (10-1)

Rams (12-1)

Chargers (14-1)

Futures bets

Futures bets are a great way for diehard sports fans to get themselves a little more involved in the upcoming success of their favorite teams and/or players. They can also be a good way for the maligned hometown fan to shift focus a little bit and worry more about the success (or failure) of rival teams. Fans can put their prediction skills to the test by placing wagers on things such as the Super Bowl LVII champion, division and conference winners, win totals for each team, and individual player awards such as MVP and Offensive and Defensive Rookies of the Year. Additionally, many books offer over/under lines on certain yardage or touchdown numbers for specific players or head-to-head options between two stars of a shared position. These are often referred to as “specials.” Odds on certain futures will often be updated throughout the offseason as players change teams or suffer injuries. Once the season starts, odds can change wildly based on injuries, and fast or slow starts with bettors having to know the difference between pretenders and contenders. There’s nothing like placing a wager on a longshot early in the offseason and watching the year play out in their, and your, favor. It can be ill-advised to bet on a favorite in the offseason with so much time for things to go against them. All online sportsbooks come in slightly different layouts, but futures sections are typically in the same general area. Simply click the “NFL” or “Pro Football” tab on your book of choice. The default screen is generally the Week 1 schedule with all 16 games listed, but in a dropdown menu or separate menu bar, there should be several other options, including futures and specials. Peruse these sections at your whim, looking for the teams, players, or odds which matter most to you. A wager such as Super Bowl Champions or MVP will have money options listed, whether it be all 32 teams or 30-50 of the league’s biggest stars. Each option will have odds listed next to it. Betting Super Bowl odds on the Buffalo Bills at +550 means a $100 wager returns $550. A safer bet such as the Bills to win the AFC East comes with diminished -240 odds. Win totals and player specials typically come in the form of over/unders on a number set by the sportsbook. Each side of the bet will have odds for any result coming in above or below the line.

Best Super Bowl bets

Super Bowl point spread

Betting the Super Bowl point spread will be one of the most popular methods of placing a wager on Super Bowl 57. The point spread is the projected margin of victory set by oddsmakers for the favored team. If a bettor wagers on the favorite to “cover” the point spread, the favorite must not only emerge victorious, but must do so by more than the point spread for the bet to be a winner. If the favorite wins the game but does so by less than the spread – or if it loses the game altogether – the bettor will have lost his/her money wagered.

Super Bowl moneyline

A moneyline wager is a bet on which team will win the game outright, regardless of margin. A moneyline wager is essentially the same type of bet that has been placed among family and friends for decades. When placed with a sportsbook, a moneyline wager pays winning bets based on the odds attached to the wager. For example, a moneyline wager on the favorite may carry odds of “-110”, meaning a bettor wins $100 for every $110 wagered. Conversely, a moneyline wager on the underdog may carry odds of “+112”, meaning a bettor wins $112 for every $100 bet.

An over under wager is one that hinges on whether the bettor correctly bet the game’s combined final score would finish over or under the number projected by the sportsbook at the time of the wager. For example, say Super Bowl odds carry a projected total of 49 points. If one wagers the “under” on that figure and the game finishes with a 30-21 final score, the bet is a losing one, since the combined total of that score is 51 points. However, if the game instead finishes 24-21 – a combined score of 45 – then that bet would be a winner.

Super Bowl player prop bets

Player Prop bets are wagers that are based on whether the individual player that’s the subject of the bet falls short of or exceeds certain statistical benchmarks. Sportsbooks typically offer an extensive array of such bets for an event of the magnitude of the Super Bowl. Player prop bets are based on the statistics usually accrued by players at different positions. A prop bet for a quarterback would be whether the player throws for less or more than 250 yards in the game, for example. For a running back, an example would be whether the player receivers less or more than 20 carries. As for a receiver, an available prop wager could be based on whether the player falls below or exceeds a certain number of receptions during the game. Even non-skill position players such as kickers or even an entire defensive unit can be the subject of prop bets. A standard prop bet for a kicker could be based on whether the player will successfully hit more or less than a certain number of field goals, or whether they will miss an extra point. For a defense, prop bets could be based on whether that unit will give up a certain amount of points, or whether it will score a touchdown on an interception or fumble return. Player prop bets are most often graded on full-game statistics, but there are also prop bets that are based on statistics accrued during a specific quarter or specific half of a game.

Exotic Super Bowl prop bets

Prop bets for major events such as a Super Bowl can also center on outcomes that aren’t based on traditional in-game statistics. For example, a prop bet can be placed on whether the game-opening coin toss comes up as heads or tails or which team will win the toss; the color of the Gatorade that is dumped on the winning team’s coach; and what the jersey number of one of the players who scores during the game might be. There are even prop wagers based on the two flagship non-sports events associated with the game – the National Anthem and the halftime show. Bettors can place wagers on contingencies such as the length of time of the National Anthem, whether the performer will omit a word, whether a certain celebrity will make an unexpected appearance during the halftime festivities or how many songs will be performed by the halftime act.

Betting on Super Bowl MVP

The most prestigious individual Super Bowl-related award is that of Super Bowl MVP. While any player is technically eligible for the distinction, the best odds by and far lie with the quarterback position, which has taken home 31 of the 56 MVP awards in Super Bowl history. Five quarterbacks have won the MVP award on multiple occasions. The Patriots’ Tom Brady leads the way with five. The 49ers’ Joe Montana follows with three. Meanwhile, the Packers’ Bart Starr, the Steelers’ Terry Bradshaw and the Giants’ Eli Manning each garnered two apiece. Even when a future Hall of Famer like Brady is on the winning side, it’s important to remember there is no such thing as a surefire bet. In the Patriots’ win over the Rams in February of 2019, receiver Julian Edelman earned MVP honors with a 10-reception, 141-yard tally. Rams QB Matthew Stafford was one of the big favorites to win

Alternate Lines for the Super Bowl

Alternate lines are those offered by sportsbooks as secondary options to the official point spread that has been set. These lines feature an extensive array of different point spreads for both the favorite and underdog side of the game. These lines typically begin at points well above the number associated with each team in the official game line and range well into the other side of the bet, i.e. allowing for a heavy favorite to be bet as a heavy underdog and vice versa. To cite an example from a recent NFL title game, the Chiefs – Bucs matchup, Kansas City entered the game as 3-point favorites at many sportsbooks. Alternate lines offered could have included a wagering opportunity on the Chiefs as seven-point favorites instead. Moreover, that bet would have included a very favorable “price” – the preset ratio at which the bet would pay out – due to the much lower probability of the Chiefs not only winning, but winning by more than a touchdown.

Super Bowl live betting

Live betting offers bettors the opportunity to place wagers on the point spread, moneyline or projected total of a game as odds on each fluctuate depending on the flow of a game. With a live betting option, a bettor doesn’t have to be locked into just the wagers they placed prior to the start of the game or at halftime. Rather, if, for example, the favored team unexpectedly falls behind by a two-touchdown margin in the first half, the bettor can hedge his original wager by investing in a new line with odds that reflect how the game is unfolding.

Betting tips and strategies

Line shopping and getting the best number

With any purchase, shopping for the best price is advisable. Sports betting is no different. The “prices” associated with sports betting are the odds attached to each wager that determine the payout if the bet is a winner. Other sportsbook-to-sportsbook variables that are important for a better to also be conscious of include possible differences in the point spread and projected total posted for a particular game. The original lines set by oddsmakers when a game is first posted can often be the “sharpest”, i.e. most difficult to consistently beat over time. Therefore, the biggest edge can often come from waiting things out and seeing what way the betting public’s wagers move a point spread as a game draws closer. Factors such as faulty “groupthink” can sometimes alter a team’s projected advantage to the extent it creates a tangible edge for a sharp bettor. One caveat about the Super Bowl is that no one NFL game sees its line affected more by “sharp money.” Therefore, line movement for this particular game is often the byproduct of bets placed based on an effective process more than any other during the season.

Fading the public

The strategy of betting against the most popular side of a bet can pay off on occasion. It is not a strategy that’s necessarily advisable to be utilized with great frequency, however. There are certain instances when the general public’s infatuation with a certain team’s reputation (or in some cases, even certain superstar players such as Patrick Mahomes) can lead to a notable amount of money being wagered on that team. The line, in turn, could move to a point where a team is favored by an increasingly unrealistic amount of points. By “fading the public” in such an instance, a bettor could exploit the situation and place a winning bet on the underdog to slide in under the spread. The same could hold true for a projected total that gets bet up to a certain level due to the offensive reputations of one or both of the teams.

Using advanced metrics

While many bettors likely put only a modest amount of what could accurately be termed “research” before placing a wager, there’s certainly no shortage of metrics available to be evaluated for those who wish to avail themselves. For team-based wagers such as moneylines, point spreads and projected totals, bettors can review the history of each team’s performance in each category. However, where advanced metrics can be particularly helpful is when making individual- or team-based prop wagers. Statistical trends can certainly help a bettor make an informed decision on whether a certain receiver is likely to exceed a certain amount of catches versus a certain opponent’s defense, for example. The same could apply to countless other such prop wagers, such as a quarterback reaching the 300-yard threshold and a running back eclipsing the 100-yard mark, to cite just two other examples. A good example from a recent Super Bowl was the matchup between the Chiefs and 49ers, involving San Francisco star tight end George Kittle. Say a sportsbook offered a prop wager on Kittle making over/under five catches. A bettor evaluating this wager might have gone with the Over when considering Kansas City faced the second-most tight end targets (141) in the league last season and tied for the third-most catches (96) allowed to the position. Kittle finished the game with four catches, just slightly under the number – a win for Under bettors.

Middling

“Middling” a game is defined as a bettor placing wagers on both sides of the contest. Football is considered the most popular sport to utilize this strategy. Because it involves placing more than one wager on a game, middling can be a strategy that’s rarely used by novice bettors. However, it ironically helps mitigate the risk involved by significantly upping the chances of one of the two bets being a winner. Middling is typically made possible when there is notable line movement on a game within a week. Using an example from the Super Bowl LV Chiefs-Bucs matchup, hypothetically, say Kansas City opened up as a three-point favorite. A bettor initially places a wager on this line, but over the course of the two weeks, the line is bet up even further to a seven-point projected advantage for KC. That same bettor then places a bet on the Bucs +7, i.e. San Francisco to lose by six points or less or win outright. In this example, the bettor is a winner on both bets if either:

The Chiefs win by four points or more.

The Bucs lose by six points or less or win outright.

Taking advantage of free bets and promotions

Legal, regulated sportsbooks typically offer a variety of enticing promotions, for both first-time and existing customers. Those offers are even more prominent for an event the magnitude of the Super Bowl. Bettors should therefore be on the lookout for such offers as soon as the participants for Super Bowl LIV are decided in this coming weekend’s conference championship games.

Examples of special offers and promotions include:

Risk free bets up to a certain amount. This year, DraftKings Sportsbook offering first-time depositors up to $500 worth of risk-free bets on the game by matching a first bet up to $500. New accounts will also get $25 in free bets just for signing up — no deposit necessary!

Special odds boosts on certain wagers.

How much money is bet on the Super Bowl?

The Super Bowl is annually the most lucrative single-event sports betting opportunity. It is estimated that nearly $600 million was legally bet on last year’s Super Bowl between the Bengals and Rams. At many sportsbooks, proposition bets constitute more than half of the wagers and amount placed for the Super Bowl. With the ongoing expansion of legalized, regulated sports wagering across the United States, the total “handle” – the cumulative amount wagered on the game – should continue to edge upward for several years based solely on the increase in legal betting opportunities for sports fans.
