While the Los Angeles Rams begin their celebrations of winning their second-ever title, the sportsbooks wasted little time flipping the page to next season as they dropped their opening Super Bowl LVII odds.
The Super Bowl LVI champions, who outlasted the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 on Sunday night at SoFi Stadium, are listed as the No. 3 favorites to win it all next year and become the first team since the New England Patriots in Super Bowls XXXVIII and XXXIX (2003, 2004), according to DraftKings.
Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs — who have made each of the last four AFC Championship Games and two Super Bowl appearances in the last three years — are tied with the upstart Buffalo Bills as the favorites to win Super Bowl LVII. Kansas City was defeated by the Bengals in the postseason this year, highlighting an improbable run that saw a franchise that had won just six combined games over the previous two seasons win its first AFC title since the 1988 season.
With Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase leading the way, the Bengals are tied for the fourth-best odds to finally win a championship. Surprisingly enough, the teams with the same odds as Cincinnati is a Dallas Cowboys side that has not advanced past the Divisional Round since the 1995 season and a San Francisco 49ers team that is facing an offseason of uncertainty at the quarterback position.
After losing Tom Brady to retirement, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' title odds have slipped from a top-three standing over the last two years to 10th. Meanwhile, the Denver Broncos possess top-10 odds despite not having a long-term answer at the quarterback position, either.
Despite making the playoffs, the Philadelphia Eagles aren't regarded too highly by the sportsbooks. At +4000 to win their second Super Bowl next year, they're tied for the 20th-longest odds in the league.
Naturally, questions remain about the long-term viability of Jalen Hurts as the Eagles' franchise quarterback, but a lack of legitimate outside playmakers paired with a need for a boost on the defensive side of the ball — particularly at defensive end and safety — don't help their odds, either.
With three first-round draft picks coming up this spring, though, those numbers can change if general manager Howie Roseman can hit on his selections.
