As the odds indicate, a Super Bowl rematch between San Francisco and Kansas City is expected. They are the first and second favorites, respectively, to lift the Lombardi Trophy next February. There is a pretty big gap behind the top 2, after which you can find the Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Detroit Lions and Cincinnati Bengals.

San Francisco 49ers +550
Kansas City Chiefs +650
Baltimore Ravens +900
Buffalo Bills +950
Detroit Lions +1200
Cincinnati Bengals +1200
Miami Dolphins +1700
Philadelphia Eagles +2000
Green Bay Packers +2000
Dallas Cowboys +2000
Houston Texans +2200
New York Jets +2500
Los Angeles Chargers +2500 

Best early bets for Super Bowl 59

It’s not the most earth-shattering pick by any means, but I would take the Chiefs at anything in the area of +600 or better. As the Pickswise team suggested in advance of Super Bowl 58, it is simply unwise to bet against Patrick Mahomes – especially in the playoffs. In the Mahomes, Travis Kelce and Andy Reid era, this 2023 version of the Chiefs was probably the worst of their 4 Super Bowl appearances. It’s true that the defense was stellar, but Mahomes had fewer weapons at his disposal than in years past. Nonetheless, the future Hall of Famer was as good as ever on Sunday and led this franchise to yet another Lombardi Trophy. If Kansas City was going to stop winning any time in the near future, it probably would have been this season.

If you wanted a longer shot, I would look at a more wide-open NFC. Honestly the Dallas Cowboys are intriguing at lofty +2000 odds, but I just can’t pull the trigger on them given their playoff futility. Instead, I would rather roll with the Detroit Lions at +1200. They probably should have been in the Super Bowl this season and they are only going to get better.
