With the 2025 NFL season underway, fans are already eyeing Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium. Which teams have the edge to hoist the Lombardi Trophy in 2026? Here are the top three contenders, backed by star power, coaching, and stats, ready to dominate. These are my top three picks according to Firepower. Let’s break it down!
1. Philadelphia Eagles: Super Bowl Champs with Firepower
The Eagles (+650 odds) are fresh off their Super Bowl LIX rout of the Chiefs, thanks to a dominant offensive line and Saquon Barkley’s historic season. Jalen Hurts remains a dual-threat QB, and GM Howie Roseman reloaded with draft picks like Jihaad Campbell, per ESPN. Their defense, despite losing Josh Sweat, held opponents to under 250 yards in key games last season.
- Why They’ll Win: Their top-ranked offensive line (averaging 6’6”, 338 lbs) controls games, per The Guardian. If Hurts avoids turnovers, Philly’s balanced attack is tough to stop.
- X-Factor: Barkley’s versatility, as noted by NFL.com, makes them a nightmare for defenses.
2. Buffalo Bills: Josh Allen’s MVP-Caliber Push
The Bills (+750 odds) are the AFC’s best bet, led by MVP candidate Josh Allen. Their 13-4 record last season showed resilience despite defensive injuries. Adding a star receiver like Tee Higgins could elevate their offense, per ESPN’s analysts. Their defense, with players like Patrick Surtain II, remains stout.
- Why They’ll Win: Allen’s clutch play (6 interceptions in 2024) and a home-field advantage in Buffalo’s brutal weather give them an edge, per Sports Illustrated.
- X-Factor: RB James Cook’s breakout potential, highlighted by NFL.com, adds balance.
3. Baltimore Ravens: Lamar Jackson’s Relentless Drive
The Ravens (+700 odds) are perennial contenders with Lamar Jackson, a two-time MVP, and RB Derrick Henry. Their physical style wore down opponents, finishing 12-5 last season. A strong draft and coaching stability under John Harbaugh keep them elite, per CBS Sports.
- Why They’ll Win: Jackson’s unmatched athleticism and a top-5 defense (third-best Super Bowl odds at +650) make them versatile, per ESPN Bet.
- X-Factor: Henry’s punishing runs, as seen in NFL.com highlights, exhaust defenses.
The Eagles, Bills, and Ravens stand out for Super Bowl LX with elite QBs, balanced rosters, and proven coaches. Though we all know what the Chiefs are capable of, with their star Power in Patrick Maholmes. But would it be enough to take them all the way? Who’s your pick to win it all?
