The San Francisco 49ers currently have odds of +550 (bet $10 to win $65 total) while the Kansas City Chiefs follow closely behind at +600 (bet $10 to win $70 total). The Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals both sit at a higher price point, with odds set at +950 (bet $10 to win $105 total) for the former and +1300 (bet $10 to win $140 total) for the latter. The Detroit Lions and Buffalo Bills share these same chances of winning it all next year, both listed at odds of +1300 (bet $10 to win $140 total).

The Dallas Cowboys have seen their Super Bowl futures move slightly longer after Day 1 of the NFL Draft. Their current odds stand at +1500 (bet $10 to win $160) compared to last week’s price point of +1300 (bet $10 to win $140 total). Other teams that have seen their Super Bowl futures shorten following the NFL Draft include Atlanta, now at odds of +2400 (bet $10 to win $250 total), and Chicago, currently listed as having a chance of winning it all next year with odds set at +4000 (bet $10 to win $410 total).

As for which team could potentially shock the league? While still a longshot contender according to Super Bowl futures, FOX Sports NFL analyst Dave Helman understands why some might be intrigued by Atlanta’s recent draft picks. “In a vacuum,” he acknowledged, “if you’re comfortable with the medicals, you probably think this guy’s great.” The Falcons recently selected Michael Penix Jr., eighth overall in the first round of this year’s NFL Draft and signed four-time Pro Bowler Kirk Cousins just last month. However, FOX Sports NFC North reporter Carmen Vitali cautioned that “team building doesn’t work like that” when it comes to wasting a quarterback’s rookie contract in today’s modern NFL.

Who will ultimately emerge as Super Bowl champions remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the game on February 9, 2025, at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans promises to deliver an unforgettable spectacle that football fans won’t want to miss!
