NFL Power Rankings 2025: Super Bowl, All 32 Teams

1. Seattle Seahawks

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +800

Following a dominant run to the title, it is not surprising to see the Seahawks atop this list and the odds for Super Bowl 61. Repeating will obviously be a challenge, but the Seahawks are in a good spot to both bring back their priority free agents (Kenneth Walker, Coby Bryant, Tariq Woolen, among others) and continue to build the roster with an estimated $62 million in available cap space. The biggest concern is the loss of OC Klint Kubiak, who left to be the head coach of the Raiders.

2. Los Angeles Rams

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +900

The Rams came up short against the Seahawks, but they made their case for being the second-best team in the league last season. Matthew Stafford is set to return, but Los Angeles does have holes to fill on the roster, especially along the offensive line and in the secondary. Even so, the combination of Stafford, Sean McVay, Puka Nacua, and a talented young defense should keep them in the mix.

3. Green Bay Packers

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +1400

While things can quickly change given the quarterback talent in the other conference, the top three teams in these initial 2026 power rankings all come from the NFC, which paints a picture of the relative strength of each division last season. Admittedly, I may have the Packers too high here, and they need to prove the defense can play at a high level even after losing Jeff Hafley to the Dolphins. Green Bay is talented, though, and understands how to create explosive plays on offense, which is more important than ever in the NFL.

4. Kansas City Chiefs

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +1400

The Chiefs have some free agent concerns, no cap space, face another legal issue for Rashee Rice, and are coming off easily their worst season since 2012. They also have Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid. Mahomes' knee injury adds another layer of concern, and this organization may be headed for a transitional period. Still, with all the uncertainty across the rest of the AFC, betting on Mahomes and Reid makes a lot of sense, especially after they brought back Eric Bieniemy as offensive coordinator.

5. Baltimore Ravens

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +1200

7. New England Patriots

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +1700

The Patriots just played in the Super Bowl. Even though that was not the best performance, they should probably be higher. The issue is that we should expect the AFC to be better in 2026, assuming health for the top quarterbacks, and New England will get a tougher schedule overall after one of the easiest in the league last year. The Patriots are good, have an ascending young quarterback, a good coach, and the cap space to once again be players this offseason. Will that be enough to completely dismantle the AFC's old royal court? Time will tell.

8. Los Angeles Chargers

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +1500

Yes. We are doing this again. The Chargers started strong last season, beating the Chiefs and the Broncos in the first three weeks, but offensive line injuries ended up being their undoing. They still made the playoffs, though, and have a ton of cap space to replace some older free agents if they choose to go that way. Losing DC Jesse Minter hurts, but Mike McDaniel should be an upgrade at offensive coordinator.

9. Philadelphia Eagles

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +1400

The Eagles have one of the most talented rosters in the league. That is not really in question. There are some concerns, however, with the coaching and overall vibes of the locker room after a tumultuous season. Will A.J. Brown still be around come Week 1? Vic Fangio will be, but should we read into his reported retirement consideration? Will the change at offensive coordinator fix the major issues we saw in 2025? Does the team still trust Nick Sirianni? The Eagles followed up a disastrous collapse in 2023 with a Super Bowl Championship, so we will not write them off by any stretch, but there are at least some concerns.

10. Detroit Lions

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +1500

The Lions once again struggled with injuries in 2025, but Ben Johnson‘s absence loomed large for much of the season. Detroit still had a quality offense, finishing third in yards per play, but they unsurprisingly made a change at coordinator in the offseason, bringing in former Cardinals OC Drew Petzing. It remains to be seen if he can make things easier for the offense in 2026. In addition, the team has some key free agents, no cap space, and plays in a tough division. Those are not positive signs, but the Lions have the roster to compete if Petzing comes through.

11. San Francisco 49ers

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +1700

Tearing down that substation is priority one, but the 49ers have a lot of other work to do this offseason. Brandon Aiyuk is almost certainly gone, Jauan Jennings is a free agent, Ricky Pearsall has not stayed healthy, and Christian McCaffrey was not quite the same as a runner last year. They have to revamp the offense around Brock Purdy.

12. Denver Broncos

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +2000

The Broncos can realistically think they would have made the Super Bowl if not for Bo Nix‘s untimely injury, but like with the Patriots, it is fair to wonder if the traditional AFC powers will come roaring back in 2026. To avoid that, Denver has to keep improving on offense after ranking midpack in both yards per play and points per drive last year. Getting Nix another receiver — or maybe just playing Marvin Mims — would be a good step.

13. Jacksonville Jaguars

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +2000

Liam Coen‘s first season in Jacksonville was a resounding success. Moving forward, they do have some key free agents on defense, and they are in a tough spot with the salary cap, although they can create quite a bit more space through restructuring. Coen's Jaguars look like a team on the rise, and another step forward from Trevor Lawrence would put them in a great position in 2026.

14. Houston Texans

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +2000

The vibes around the Texans are weirdly negative despite the fact that they have won a playoff game in each of DeMeco Ryans‘ first three years in charge. To be fair, C.J. Stroud has not built as strongly off his rookie season as Houston fans would have hoped, and this roster still needs work in key areas. Still, the Texans have consistently been at least good under Ryans, and that likely will continue in 2026.

16. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +4000

The Bucs were among the most disappointing teams in 2025, going 2-7 after their bye week and losing the league's most winnable division. The offense disappointed, and although he could point to injury issues at receiver, OC Josh Grizzard was relieved of his duties after the season. Former Falcons OC Zac Robinson will take over an offense that has Mike Evans and Cade Otton heading to free agency. The Bucs also have important free agents on the other side of the ball, but at least they still play in the NFC South.

17. Minnesota Vikings

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +5000

I could not put the Vikings any higher, but they are one of my favorite Super Bowl sleepers heading into the offseason. They do have real salary cap concerns, but they do not have a ton of pivotal free agents. They will bring back the defensive coordinator (Brian Flores) and most of the key pieces to a defense that was among the best in the league last season. It is all about the quarterback. Can they get more out of J.J. McCarthy? Can they find another option? If the answer to either question is yes, they should win more games in 2026.

18. Cincinnati Bengals

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +3000

I truthfully have no idea where to put the Bengals. They went 5-3 in games with Joe Burrow last season. Despite once again having a dreadful defense, they actually started the season well for once, and they are the only team in the division with coaching continuity. If they can get the defense to respectable, they would have a real shot, but how likely is that with Trey Hendrickson almost certainly leaving in free agency?

19. Dallas Cowboys

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +3000

Like with the Bengals, the Cowboys slot in as a team I have no idea about. They did a good job adding some talent on defense after the Micah Parsons debacle, and if George Pickens sticks around, they have one of the best receiver duos in the league. On the other side, they have salary cap issues, and their roster is simply not as good as some of the top teams in the NFC.

20. Washington Commanders

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +5000

The Commanders were one of the more disappointing teams last year. Jayden Daniels starting just seven games did not help, but the Commanders were only 2-5 in his appearances. Their veteran gambit did not work, and now many of those veterans are headed to free agency. On the positive side, Washington has the cap space to go for it again this year.

21. Indianapolis Colts

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +4000

The Colts were going to be a playoff team before Daniel Jones suffered a season-ending injury. They will move higher if Jones, who is scheduled to be a free agent, returns, but do we trust Jones to come back at the same level he was early in 2025? Is their roster better than midpack? Both are fair questions as we stand right now.

22. Pittsburgh Steelers

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +8000

For the first time since 2007, the Steelers are entering the season with a new head coach. Hiring Mike McCarthy could convince Aaron Rodgers to give it another season, but that would be yet another band-aid that doesn't heal Pittsburgh's long-term quarterback concerns. If Rodgers returns, they have to find a No. 2 receiver, and they have work to do on defense.

23. Carolina Panthers

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +10000

We might not be giving the Panthers enough respect, but it feels like they more backed into the playoffs last season. They did keep DC Ejiro Evero around, which is a big win, but they need to get him some more talent on defense, especially talent that can rush the passer. On offense, they have to figure out if Bryce Young is really the long-term answer.

24. New Orleans Saints

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +15000

The Saints were arguably the best team in the division by the end of last season. That's not saying a ton because it is the NFC South, but Tyler Shough showed enough to get a real shot as the starter moving forward. Now they need to build around him on offense while continuing to get younger on defense — long-time veterans Cameron Jordan and Demario Davis are scheduled to be free agents.

25. Atlanta Falcons

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +6600

New coach Kevin Stefanski walks into yet another team with quarterback questions. Michael Penix is returning from another serious knee injury, his third, and he has yet to prove is the long-term answer. Atlanta has other questions throughout the roster, but what Penix is able to do in 2026 will determine both their short-term and long-term path.

26. New York Giants

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +6600

I was higher on the Giants than the consensus last season, and that did not work out great. Still, Jaxson Dart looks like a hit, and that plus a returning Malik Nabers gives them a great foundation on offense. Is Matt Nagy the offensive coordinator to help that pair hit their ceiling? Will John Harbaugh be able to replicate his Baltimore success? How will the new coaching staff work with returning GM Joe Schoen? There are a lot of questions.

27. Tennessee Titans

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +10000

Unlike a lot of teams down at this end, the Titans can be pretty optimistic under new coach Robert Saleh. 2025 No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward has to take a step forward under new OC Brian Daboll for any of it to matter, and they really need to help him with a legit No. 1 receiver. Still, they at least have a key piece at quarterback to build around.

28. Las Vegas Raiders

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +15000

The Raiders are not quite in the same spot as the Titans because they have yet to draft their quarterback, but they will almost certainly be adding Fernando Mendoza to that room and will need to build around him. They also have to answer the Maxx Crosby question this offseason, and there are big free agents and holes to fill on defense.

29. Cleveland Browns

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +15000

Unlike some of the other teams at this end of the rankings, the Browns do have considerable talent on one side of the ball. Unfortunately, they don't really have a quarterback, they don't have a quality receiver group, and they need a complete revamp along the offensive line. New coach Todd Monken has a lot of work to do on his primary side of the ball.

30. Arizona Cardinals

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +25000

Likely to move on from Kyler Murray this offseason, the Cardinals appear headed toward a rebuild under new coach Mike LaFleur. That said, they have done a good job adding talent on defense over the last couple of seasons, and the emergence of Michael Wilson last year gives them a better option behind Marvin Harrison Jr. (or, perhaps, ahead of if Harrison does not develop). I like Arizona's roster more than a few of the teams ahead of them, but I am not sure they really want to push this season.

Aaron Glenn is getting another shot, but it is fair to wonder how fair that shot will be given the state of the roster and the quarterback situation. They do have the No. 2 overall pick, at least, and a lot of cap space, but the front office might be more interested in collecting assets and trying to make a run at a quarterback next draft.

32. Miami Dolphins

Super Bowl 61 Odds: +25000

The order of these last two could have easily been flipped, but at least the Jets have some pressure to win this season. The Dolphins have already shed several key veterans, are almost certain to move on from Tua Tagovailoa, and appear to be heading into a full rebuilding year under new coach Jeff Hafley.
