NFL 2025 Power Rankings + Super Bowl Thoughts
1. Los Angeles Rams (8–2)
The Rams sit tied for the NFC’s best record, and oddsmakers at both DraftKings and FanDuel list them in the top two or three shortest odds to win the Super Bowl. Their offense is humming, the defense remains disciplined, and the coaching edge is obvious.
Super Bowl shot: Heavyweight contender.
2. Philadelphia Eagles (8–2)
The defending champions continue to look like one of the most complete teams in football. Sportsbooks have kept them neck-and-neck with the Rams all month.
Super Bowl shot: True favorite.
3. Kansas City Chiefs (5–5)
The record is shocking, but the betting markets haven’t flinched. As of Monday morning, DraftKings still lists KC inside the top five for Super Bowl futures. Mahomes keeps them alive even in a down year.
Super Bowl shot: Contender based on pedigree alone.
4. Detroit Lions (6–4)
Detroit’s top-five offensive efficiency keeps them firmly near the front of nearly every sportsbook’s futures board.
Super Bowl shot: Right below the elite tier, but with top-shelf value.
5. Denver Broncos (9–2)
The best record in football right now. Despite that, sportsbooks still keep them just outside the shortest-odds tier, reflecting skepticism about their postseason ceiling.
Super Bowl shot: Contender with dark-horse pricing.
6. Indianapolis Colts (8–2)
CBS Sports and ESPN both list Indy among the fastest-rising Super Bowl futures this week, climbing inside the top five at several books.
Super Bowl shot: Strong contender with value still attached.
7. Buffalo Bills (7–3)
Buffalo’s volatility hasn’t scared off bettors — FanDuel still prices them inside the top eight. Their ceiling is one of the league’s highest.
Super Bowl shot: High-variance dark horse.
8. Seattle Seahawks (7–3)
Seattle has jumped into the national conversation, now sitting top five in multiple futures markets. The NFC West race is officially real and now, after Sam Darnold threw 4 interceptions, things are getting spicy.
Super Bowl shot: A legitimate path, with friendly odds.
9. San Francisco 49ers (7–4)
NFL.com standings show San Francisco firmly in the playoff picture, but oddsmakers now place them in the second tier due to inconsistency.
Super Bowl shot: Quality dark horse.
10. Baltimore Ravens (5–5)
A .500 record undersells how dangerous this roster is. ESPN’s futures board still places Baltimore among the league’s top 12.
Super Bowl shot: Sleeper with upside.
11. New England Patriots (9–2)
The most disrespected 9–2 team in the league — sportsbooks still keep them behind the Eagles, Rams, and Lions.
Super Bowl shot: Fringe contender that no one trusts yet.
12. Chicago Bears (7–3)
Chicago’s defense has pulled them into the NFC race, and futures markets now put them in the mid-tier longshot group — a big jump from preseason projections.
Super Bowl shot: Longshot with rising credibility.
13. Green Bay Packers (6–3)
Green Bay’s young core is maturing fast. CBS futures data places them in that 25–1 to 35–1 range.
Super Bowl shot: Fringe hopeful.
14. Jacksonville Jaguars (6–4)
Flashes of greatness, flashes of confusion. Sportsbooks reflect that inconsistency by leaving them in the AFC’s middle band.
Super Bowl shot: Unreliable dark horse.
15. Los Angeles Chargers (7–4)
The Chargers are always talented, always dramatic. Their futures odds land squarely in the 20–1 to 30–1 range depending on the book.
Super Bowl shot: Dangerous but unpredictable.
16. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6–4)
Solid, stable, and sitting in a winnable division. Sportsbooks treat them as a fringe playoff contender, not a championship threat.
Super Bowl shot: Very slim.
17. Pittsburgh Steelers (6–4)
Ugly wins still count. Pittsburgh’s defense keeps them relevant, but markets place them firmly in the longshot tier.
Super Bowl shot: Remote.
18. Houston Texans (5–5)
Improving fast but still priced like a developing team. Most books list them between 40–1 and 75–1.
Super Bowl shot: Future year, not this year.
19. Miami Dolphins (4–7)
Explosive offense, disastrous record. Their Super Bowl odds have fallen accordingly, drifting into the triple-digit longshots.
Super Bowl shot: Essentially none.
20. Carolina Panthers (6–5)
Carolina staying above .500 this late in the season is one of the most unexpected plot twists in the NFC. This is a team most analysts believed would still be in the early stages of a rebuild, but instead they’ve managed to carve out a tough, competitive identity. Their offense isn’t explosive, but it avoids catastrophic mistakes and leans on a functional run game when needed. Their defense is scrappy, opportunistic, and plays with enough discipline to keep games close into the fourth quarter. Still, when you look at major sportsbooks like DraftKings, FanDuel, and ESPN’s futures boards, there’s almost no movement suggesting oddsmakers believe Carolina is anything more than a middle-tier spoiler. The Panthers lack the defining traits of a dangerous January team. They don’t have elite quarterback play, a defense that can take over games on its own, or the depth to survive the playoff gauntlet. They win with grit, but grit alone doesn’t swing Super Bowls.
Super Bowl shot: Almost none.
21. Minnesota Vikings (4–6)
Minnesota finds itself in a strange limbo, stuck behind Detroit, Chicago, and Green Bay in a division that has rapidly reinvented itself. The Vikings aren’t bad enough to bottom out and chase a top draft pick, yet not consistent enough to impose themselves on the NFC playoff race. Every week feels like a toss-up. Some games they flash explosive playmaking and enough defensive stops to hang with quality teams. Other games they completely disappear, struggling to convert third downs or keep up with more disciplined opponents. NFL.com’s standings reinforce their reality: a team drifting in the middle, trying to find purpose in a conference loaded with stronger, better-rounded rosters. Sportsbooks treat them exactly the same. Futures markets across all major operators keep Minnesota buried near the back, with long odds reflecting a belief that this team simply doesn’t have the horsepower to make a real run. They’re competitive, but not complete.
Super Bowl shot: Extreme longshot.
22. Arizona Cardinals (3–7)
Arizona’s 3–7 record paints the picture of a team that’s struggling, but the Cardinals have shown more fight than most rebuilding organizations. They play with energy and enthusiasm, and they’ve managed to stay competitive in several games that could have turned into blowouts. The coaching staff deserves credit for squeezing development out of a young roster, and there are glimpses of a foundation being built the right way. Still, the reality is clear. The Cardinals lack depth, their roster is heavily dependent on inexperienced players, and they do not have a reliable identity on offense or defense. There are positive signs for the future, but right now they simply don’t have the talent to hang with top NFC contenders or even consistently beat mid-tier teams. Sportsbooks recognize this, keeping Arizona near the very bottom of every Super Bowl futures board. The focus here is not winning now — it’s setting the stage for next season and beyond.
Super Bowl shot: None.
23. Atlanta Falcons (3–7)
Atlanta’s season has been defined by flashes of promise buried under long stretches of inconsistency. Their defense shows legitimate potential, especially in moments where the front seven disrupts the pocket and forces mistakes, but the offense has been the anchor dragging this team down. The passing attack lacks rhythm, the quarterback play has been uneven, and the coaching staff has struggled to establish a consistent identity. When the run game isn’t clicking, the entire operation falls apart. NFL standings place Atlanta in the lower third of the NFC, and the betting markets match that position. DraftKings and FanDuel both keep the Falcons outside the top 25 in Super Bowl futures, and most books treat them as a team in transition rather than a sleeper waiting to pop. Until Atlanta solves its offensive problems — especially at quarterback — this roster won’t be capable of making noise in a stacked conference.
Super Bowl shot: None.
24. Washington Commanders (3–8)
Washington entered 2025 with excitement following new ownership and a refreshed direction, but the team on the field still reflects a franchise deep in transition. They have young talent in spots, and their defensive front remains competitive, but inconsistency at quarterback and struggles in pass protection have limited their progress. The offense moves in spurts rather than sustained drives, and the defense spends far too much time on the field as a result. Washington is competitive enough to stay in games early, but rarely polished enough to close. The NFL standings clearly position them near the bottom of the NFC, and every major sportsbook echoes that reality, placing Washington near the very bottom of all Super Bowl odds boards. This season is less about chasing a playoff berth and more about evaluating what pieces are worth carrying into the next era of Commanders football. The foundation is being laid, but the build is far from complete.
Super Bowl shot: None.
25. New Orleans Saints (2–8)
The Saints have stumbled through one of their most difficult seasons in over a decade. The issues run deep. The offense has lacked rhythm, big plays are rare, and the quarterback situation has failed to stabilize. The once-dominant defense has aged, and injuries have exposed a lack of depth across multiple positions. What used to be a team built on consistency has turned into one that cannot find its footing from week to week. NFL.com’s standings place them firmly near the bottom of the NFC, and the sportsbooks agree. New Orleans is treated as a total non-factor in every major Super Bowl futures market, sitting near the bottom of the board and often overlooked entirely in broader playoff conversations. The Saints aren’t without talent, but the roster construction feels mismatched and the organization looks like it’s edging closer to a full rebuild. This is not their year, and everyone sees it.
Super Bowl shot: None.
26. Cincinnati Bengals (3–7)
The Bengals entered the season with high expectations, but injuries have turned everything upside down. Key offensive pieces have missed significant time, the offensive line remains inconsistent, and the defense hasn’t been able to carry games the way it occasionally has in past years. Cincinnati still shows flashes of the explosive team that once dominated playoff brackets, but those moments are rare and brief. More often, they’re struggling to move the chains, failing to control the tempo, or getting outmatched by deeper and healthier rosters. Because of that, their Super Bowl futures — once among the league’s most popular preseason bets — have completely collapsed. Major sportsbooks now list Cincinnati deep in longshot territory, reflecting the difficult path ahead. This season feels like a lost chapter, not a continuation of the contender era. Their priority now should be finishing healthy, protecting their stars, and regrouping for a real run next year.
Super Bowl shot: None without a miracle.
27. Las Vegas Raiders (2–7)
The Raiders are once again living in the NFL’s danger zone, where talent exists but direction is missing. They have explosive playmakers on offense and a handful of defensive pieces capable of big moments, but the roster lacks cohesion and consistency. The coaching situation has been unstable, and it shows in the product on the field. Drives stall, leads disappear, and mistakes pile up at the worst possible times.
NFL standings place them near the bottom of the AFC, and the betting markets reflect that reality with brutal honesty. DraftKings, FanDuel, and nearly every sportsbook list the Raiders in the bottom five for Super Bowl futures, with odds so long they essentially confirm that this is a transition year. Las Vegas has pieces worth building around, but they are far from a complete team. Right now, they’re more of a weekly upset threat than any kind of postseason contender.
Super Bowl shot: None.
28. New York Jets (2–8)
The Jets remain one of the most confusing teams in football. They have a defense capable of competing with elite offenses, led by some of the best young talent in the league. But the offense continues to hold them hostage. Turnovers, inconsistency at quarterback, and poor offensive line play have created a situation where the defense spends too much time on the field and eventually wears down. The result is predictable: close games early, blowouts late, and a standings position near the bottom of the AFC. Sportsbooks have completely moved off the Jets as any kind of threat, placing them near the very bottom of every futures market. The potential is there for future years, but this season is effectively lost. Until the Jets solve their quarterback situation and rebuild the offensive infrastructure around their playmakers, they’ll remain a team defined by “what if” rather than “what is.”
Super Bowl shot: None.
29.Cleveland Browns (2–8)
Cleveland’s season unraveled quickly due to a wave of injuries, inconsistent quarterback play, and breakdowns on defense. What looked like a potentially competitive roster on paper has struggled to stay healthy enough to execute the system at a high level. Their defense, once the backbone of the team, can no longer compensate for the offensive stagnation. NFL standings have them near the bottom of the AFC, and sportsbooks reflect the same evaluation, placing them among the teams with the longest Super Bowl odds in the entire league. Cleveland’s issues go beyond injuries, though. The roster feels top-heavy, and the lack of depth at key positions has been exposed against physical and well-rounded opponents. This season now feels like a reset moment. The Browns must spend the rest of the year figuring out which players are foundational and which pieces need to be replaced heading into 2026.
Super Bowl shot: None.
30. New York Giants (2–9)
The Giants have fallen from last year’s competitive form into one of the league’s toughest regression seasons. The offense lacks rhythm, the protection hasn’t improved the way it needed to, and the defense has struggled to make up for offensive shortcomings. Injuries haven’t helped, but even at full health this roster lacks the depth and explosiveness needed to compete with NFC contenders. NFL.com’s standings position them as one of the lowest teams in the league, and sportsbooks follow suit, ranking them near the bottom in every major Super Bowl futures market. The Giants are in a transitional phase, even if the organization hasn’t said it publicly. They need a full evaluation of the quarterback position, the offensive line, and the long-term identity of the franchise. This season’s results are harsh, but they also reveal what needs to be fixed for the team to move forward.
Super Bowl shot: None.
31. Tennessee Titans (1–9)
The Titans are in a full rebuild whether they intended it or not. The roster is young, inexperienced, and inconsistent, and the offense depends heavily on a rookie quarterback who is learning every week under tough circumstances. Tennessee has moments where the potential is clear, especially when the run game finds rhythm or the defense forces turnovers, but those stretches rarely last. The lack of depth, especially on the offensive line and secondary, has led to repeated breakdowns in crucial moments. NFL standings place them at the bottom of the AFC, and the sportsbooks agree. Tennessee is consistently listed among the longest shots in all Super Bowl futures markets, reflecting a team focused on development rather than contention. This season is about reps, evaluation, and laying the groundwork for the next era of Titans football. There’s future potential, but the present is rough.
Super Bowl shot: None.
32. Dallas Cowboys (3–5)
Dallas is the most brand-famous disappointment of the entire 2025 season. A franchise with sky-high expectations has instead delivered inconsistency, turnovers, and a defense that hasn’t played to its talent level. The offense has stalled far too often, failing to find explosiveness or rhythm against even average defenses. Coaching adjustments haven’t solved the underlying issues, and the team lacks the cohesion required to overcome adversity. NFL.com standings place them in a shocking position near the bottom of the NFC playoff picture, and every major sportsbook has dramatically downgraded their Super Bowl futures. Dallas is now sitting in the deep longshot category, something almost unimaginable just months ago. The team still has star players, but the execution and discipline are missing. This version of the Cowboys is far from the contender they were projected to be, and the numbers now reflect that reality.
Super Bowl shot: Essentially zero in 2025.
