Ranking the 10 Teams Most Likely to Win the 2025 Super Bowl

The NFL 2025 playoff teams are officially set! With Wild Card Weekend set to take place this weekend, now is the perfect time to look at the teams most likely to win the big prize this year.

While there are so many incredible and deserving teams, here are the 10 teams most likely to win Super Bowl LIX:

10. Los Angeles Chargers

At 11-6, the Chargers have been impressive under new coach Jim Harbaugh. Quarterback Justin Herbert’s development this season has been solid and their top-ranked defense makes them dark-horse contenders.

9. Pittsburgh Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers looked like the team to beat in the AFC for a period of time, but their confidence has to be at an all-time low right about now. Not only are they on a four-game losing streak, but quarterback Russell Wilson looks out of sorts. Could they make a run? Sure. But they’re going to have to figure things out ASAP.

8. Green Bay Packers

With an 11-6 record, the Packers have been quietly effective and could upset the Eagles this weekend. Quarterback Jordan Love has led an explosive offense, and their defense has been opportunistic, positioning them well for a playoff run.

7. Denver Broncos

Call me crazy, but the Denver Broncos could do some serious damage this post-season. Sure, they have to play on the road in Buffalo — which is no easy task — but they could make some noise.

6. Minnesota Vikings

At 14-3, the Vikings are going to have to do things the hard way this post-season. After losing out on the NFC North title and the #1 overall seed to the Lions, the Vikings will have to win on the road to make it to the Super Bowl. But, with their strong defense and offensive weapons, anything is possible!

5. Baltimore Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens are an extremely impressive team, but they’ve had their ups and downs this season. While they’ve had some head-scratching losses, quarterback Lamar Jackson and running back Derrick Henry have the power to beat any team on any day. Their recent winning streak and offensive prowess make them a team to watch.

4. Kansas City Chiefs

Did the Kansas City Chiefs win a lot of close games this season that they probably should’ve lost? Yes. Are they also the two-time defending Super Bowl champions who manage to find ways to win no matter what? Also yes. While they may not have the talent they’ve had in the past, I think we’ve all learned not to doubt the Chiefs.

3. Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles, with a 14-3 record, have demonstrated a balanced attack, led by running back Saquon Barkley, and solid defense throughout the season. Their recent performances have solidified their status as top contenders in the NFC.

2. Buffalo Bills

With a 13-4 record, the Buffalo Bills have been consistent performers throughout the season. Quarterback Josh Allen’s MVP-like season has been incredible and the offense is firing on all cylinders.

1. Detroit Lions

Finishing the season at 15-2, the Lions have completely transformed into a powerhouse under coach Dan Campbell. And, despite their recent defensive challenges due to injuries, their high-scoring offense and willingness to take risks have put them in an excellent position for the post-season.
