2026 Super Bowl Odds: Seahawks Lead Patriots, Rams, Broncos as Betting Favorites

We're just three weeks away from Super Bowl 2026, and the latest Super Bowl odds feature a familiar team at the top entering the NFL conference championship round.

The Seattle Seahawks are the betting favorites to win the Super Bowl after thrashing the rival San Francisco 49ers in the divisional round to set up another rematch with the Los Angeles Rams, who were the title favorites until they lost in Seattle a few weeks back.

The New England Patriots are the second-favorites to win the Super Bowl and the front-runner to emerge from the AFC ahead of next Sunday's tilt with the Denver Broncos, who are the biggest long shots after losing starting QB Bo Nix for the season.

You can catch our picks to win both matchups - and our look-ahead predictions for the Super Bowl - with our NFL Conference Championship predictions this week.

🏆 Seahawks favored to win Super Bowl entering NFC Championship

Follow all of our NFL analysis and betting advice for the 2026 NFL playoffs.

The Seahawks entered the postseason as the betting favorites to win the Super Bowl, and they were my pick to win it all in my NFL playoff bracket predictions entering the divisional round.

That was all before they absolutely demolished the 49ers in a 41-6 win that would have put the league on notice if it wasn't akin to what Seattle has been doing all season long. The 'Hawks finished the regular season with the NFL's highest point differential (+191) behind a brutally efficient offense and suffocating defense, and the special teams unit has come on lately with midseason acquisition Rasheed Shaheed on a tear.

I've said it before, and I'll continue to say it over the next three weeks: the Seahawks simply have so many ways to win, and it makes it virtually impossible to close the door on this team across a full 60 minutes. That's why they remain my pick to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.

📈 Can Patriots, Rams win Super Bowl behind MVP quarterbacks?

While the Seahawks' defense is the single-best unit remaining in the playoffs, the two best players left in the field are quarterbacks Matthew Stafford and Drake Maye, who will finish as the top-two finalists for the NFL MVP and have led their team to the doorstep of a Super Bowl appearance with their steady postseason play.

Stafford showed why he's the likely MVP winner and one of the most clutch QBs on the planet with some bona-fide superstar throws down the stretch of that wild overtime win over the Bears. Meanwhile, Maye has avoided the critical mistake that has plagued other young passers this postseason, but he's also thrown some absolute darts downfield to build an early lead and let his defense and run game do the dirty work from there.

That's a legitimate formula for either quarterback this week as they look to lead their team to the promised land. And if the Seahawks aren't the ones enjoying the confetti in a few weeks, one of these two passers will surely be the reason why.

🎯 Do Broncos have a chance as Super Bowl long shot?

Entering the divisional round, the Broncos felt like a potential sleeping giant in the playoff field with an elite defense and a high-upside offense with Nix flashing his immense arm talent in concert with his big-bodied receivers in Denver.

All of that came crashing down when Nix broke his ankle on the final drive of his team's overtime win over the Buffalo Bills, forcing Broncos backup QB Jarrett Stidham into action next Sunday for his first start of the season and career playoff debut. That's not exactly what Sean Payton had in mind when mapping out a potential title path a few weeks ago.

While Stidham's presence under center will surely limit (or completely derail) the Broncos' offense next week, their defense remains a championship-winning unit that can make enough plays to give their journeyman QB a chance on the other side. Still, the odds are stacked against Denver ahead of what would be a truly storybook run if they survive.
