Super Bowl Odds Movement

A variety of things can cause Super Bowl odds movement, including injuries, team performance, or transactions. If you look at 2025 Super Bowl odds now, you'll see movement for teams like the Chiefs and Bills:

Rising: Kansas City Chiefs

Can anyone stop the great Patrick Mahomes? Kansas City's offense is slowly rounding into form. With Hollywood Brown back in the lineup, the Chiefs spread the ball around and finally found some explosive plays in a 27-19 victory over the Houston Texans on Saturday. 

Don't look now, but Andy Reid finally has a ton of offensive options. Isiah Pacheco is back, Kareem Hunt remains dependable, and Brown, Kelce. Xavier Worthy and De'Andre Hopkins give Mahomes a plethora of weapons. Kansas City is third in EPA per play. Most importantly, Big Red has perfected a ball control offense. The Chiefs rank 1st in plays per drive, 3rd in first downs, 7th in scoring drive percentage (45%), and seventh in fewest tackles allowed for no gain. On top of that, Mahomes is third in total QBR on third-downs.  

On the other side of the ball, Steve Spagnuolo's defense is 10th in EPA per play. They're also third in points and yards allowed. 

As you might expect, the Chiefs know how to win the big one. They've perfected a winning formula that will likely have them playing deep into January as they chase a third straight Super Bowl title. At this point, can you really afford to bet against them?

Falling: Philadelphia Eagles

After last week the Philadelphia Eagles were hot on the heels of the Buffalo Bills and had won 10 straight football games. Unfortunately, a brutal Week 17 saw Philadelphia not only lose starting quarterback Jalen Hurts, but also a heartbreaking game against the Washington Commanders. Hurts' return date is still unknown. The former Alabama and Oklahoma star will need to clear the NFL's concussion protocol in order to return to action in Week 17 against the Dallas Cowboys.

Nick Sirianni's team will aim to lockup the NFC East with a victory. However, that's easier said than done with Kenny Pickett under center. Pickett himself was injured against the Commanders, and his status for Sunday is uncertain. With Hurts and Saquon Barkley rolling on all cylinders, the Eagles are a juggernaut. But, winning the Super Bowl without their starting quarterback is a tall mountain for this team to climb. The Eagles falling Super Bowl odds reflect that sportsbooks have planned for the worst. 

Super Bowl 2025 Odds Best Bet: Steelers (+4000)

Death, taxes, and the Pittsburgh Steelers staying above .500. Mike Tomlin's team has now won at least eight games for a record 18 straight seasons. 

The Steelers are certifiable Super Bowl contenders. TJ Watt is as menacing as ever, and Russell Wilson's resurgence has given Pittsburgh the juice they need to contend in the postseason. 

Pittsburgh sits in the top 10 in both offensive and defensive yards per play. Additionally, they are allowing just 62% of passes to be completed with a stellar 3.23 interception percentage. Pittsburgh's top-ranked pass-rush and opportunistic secondary will be a handful for even the greatest passers in the NFL to contend with in the playoffs.

Wilson's revival and the Steelers' strong rushing game will keep them playing in February. I love the value on the Steelers at +4000 to win the Super Bowl.

Making A Betting Strategy For Super Bowl 59

Crafting a winning Super Bowl betting strategy begins long before the first kickoff of the regular season. Assessing offseason changes, coaching adjustments, and previous performances are crucial factors.

You're likely to get the best betting value on a team if you place a bet before the season, but there are times in the regular season and even playoffs when you can still place a smart bet. Keep an eye on the odds, as they fluctuate throughout the year due to injuries, trades, and team performance. Acting swiftly when you spot favorable odds ensures maximizing potential winnings, as odds can shift dramatically over time at NFL sportsbooks.

The general key to crafting a betting strategy for Super Bowl odds is comparing a team's likelihood of winning in your mind to where they are on the odds board. Finding a team much more likely to win than the odds indicate is the smartest bet you can make. This strategy holds true for most futures odds, including NFL award odds.

The Kansas City Chiefs have been a powerhouse lately, winning three of the last five Super Bowls. Led by coach Andy Reid and QB Patrick Mahomes, you can expect the Chiefs at the top of these odds as long as they're around.

The biggest recent Super Bowl underdog was the 2017 Eagles, who beat Brady’s Patriots in the final. They even did so after their No. 1 QB, Carson Wentz, went down with an injury late in the season. Backup Nick Foles took over under center and earned Super Bowl MVP honors to deliver great preseason odds value to Philly’s Super Bowl 52 bettors.
