Super Bowl 60 Betting Odds and Predictions: Can the Bills Finally Deliver?

Seattle Seahawks (+425)

• • Head Coach: Mike Macdonald
  • 2025-26 Record: 14-3 (First NFC West)
  • Super Bowl Titles: 1
  • Key Players: Sam Darnold (QB), Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR), Kenneth Walker (RB), Ernest Jones IV (LB), Drake Thomas (LB)

The Seattle Seahawks’ odds to win Super Bowl 60 have soared in recent months. Once considered a +6500 longshot before Week 1, the team has quickly improved under head coach Mike Macdonald. With a fierce defense and a reliable running game, the 10-3 Seahawks now hold the second-best odds to win it all.

With a fierce defense and a reliable running game, the 14-3 Seahawks and NFC West champs now have the shortest 2026 Super Bowl odds.

With the Seahawks on a seven-game winning streak and clinching the divisional title, their winner odds have shortened from +875 to +425 over the last two months. They’ve been winning games on both sides of the ball, which makes them a dangerous team in the playoffs.

Macdonald has accelerated Seattle’s turnaround more rapidly than many anticipated, though it shouldn’t come as a huge surprise. The roster is loaded with talent at every position and has all the ingredients of a playoff-caliber team. Here’s a look at what makes the Seahawks such a formidable contender:

Offense

The Seahawks received a lukewarm response when they announced that former Vikings’ QB Sam Darnold would be starting. In this talented roster, though, Darnold has been rock solid for the Seahawks.

The quarterback has passed for 4,048 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions on 67.7% completions.

The highlight of Darnold’s season was a brilliant performance against the Rams on December 18. In a clutch effort, he led the Seahawks down the field for a game-winning drive in OT, including a successful two-point conversion.

He is aided by one of the most dangerous weapons in all of football. Former Ohio State product WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba is one of the contenders for NFL Offensive Player of the Year and a major scare for defenses in the secondary.

Smith-Njigba hauled in 119 receptions, 1,793 yards, and 10 touchdowns in the regular season.  In addition to Smith-Njigba, the receiver room has a solid asset in veteran WR Cooper Kupp. He isn’t putting up monster numbers but has a presence in the locker room and offers a decoy to allow Njigba to get free.

With Smith-Njigba stretching the secondary, room has opened up underneath for the running game. That has allowed RB Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet to find room to run. Overall, the Seahawks rank eighth with 351.4 yards per game, and third, averaging 28.4 points per matchup.

As the defense continues to set up the offense in prime field position, Darnold and Co. will reap the benefits of short fields in the playoffs.

Defense

Macdonald was hired as a defensive specialist after successful tenures with the Baltimore Ravens and Michigan Wolverines. It may not be the “Legion of Boom,” but the Seahawks’ defense is responding perfectly to Macdonald’s system.

Heading into the season highly rated, they’ve lived up to expectations. The Seahawks finish the regular season in sixth, having allowed 285.6 yards per game and lead the league with just 17.2 points allowed per game this season.

They closed out the regular season in top form, yielding 16.7 points per game and holding the 49ers to three points to win the NFC West.

The Seahawks are fully capable of disrupting the opposing team’s rhythm with their pressure and ball hawking ability. They are seventh in sacks per game with 2.8 and have tallied the fourth-most interceptions with 18 this season. This has helped spring the Seahawks to the top win margin at +11.2 points.

The Seahawks are going to finish as the #1 ranked DVOA defense, and likely will finish as the #1 overall DVOA team.

The linebacking corps, featuring Ernest Jones V and Drake Thomas, has been among the best in the league. Jones leads the Seahawks with 126 tackles and five interceptions. Whether defending the pass or stuffing the run, Jones has been there for the Seahawks.

Thomas leads the team with 3.5 sacks and is second in tackles with 96. Paired with safety Coby Bryant and Nick Emmanwori’s excellent coverage skills in the secondary, the Seahawks are among the most well-balanced defensive units in football. With the No. 1 DVOA defense in the NFL, history bodes well for the Seahawks’ chances.

Los Angeles Rams (+450)

• Head Coach: Sean McVay
• 2025-26 Record: 12-5 (Second NFC West)
• Super Bowl Titles: 2
• Key Players: Matthew Stafford (QB), Puka Nacua (WR), Davante Adams (WR), Byron Young (LB), Nate Landman (LB)

As Matthew Stafford excels in his 17th NFL season, the Los Angeles Rams have emerged as top Super Bowl contenders. The Rams didn’t finish how they would have liked to win the NFC West but still enter the playoffs with a solid mark of 12-5.

Unlike the Seahawks, the Rams won’t have a bye on Wild Card Weekend. Still, they are a heavy favorite to beat the Carolina Panthers and advance to the NFC Divisional Game. They lost two of their last three games, including a key 38-37 OT loss to the Seahawks to dent their divisional bid.

The Rams weren’t able to shake off the defeat and followed it up with a 27-24 loss to the Falcons in Week 17. In a tune-up game for the playoffs, the Rams handled the Arizona Cardinals in a 37-20 final. The defense has some question marks, but Stafford’s explosive offense makes them a top contender.

Here’s what makes the Rams such a dangerous team:

Offense

The Rams’ offense is led by Stafford’s outstanding performance this season. Although he has had some fantastic years in the NFL, Stafford posted the best regular season of his career in 2025-26.

The 37-year-old quarterback has passed for 4,707 yards, 46 touchdowns, and just eight interceptions with a 65% completion rate. His 109.2 QB rating ranks second, behind only New England Patriots’ QB Drake Maye. Since Week 4, he’s thrown 41 touchdowns and six interceptions, making him a leading candidate for his first NFL MVP award.

He benefits from a strong supporting cast on offense. WR Puka Nacua is excelling in his third NFL season and taking advantage of playing alongside WR Davante Adams.

Together, Nacua and Adams form a dynamic duo in the passing game. Adams was recently dealing with concussion symptoms but has been cleared for action in the playoffs.

That’s a big lift for an offense that is already dangerous in his absence. Put Adams on the field with Nacua and the Rams can move the ball down the field in a hurry.

Adams, ecstatic to be in Los Angeles after difficult stints in Las Vegas and New York, wrapped up the regular season with 60 receptions, 789 yards, and 14 touchdowns. Despite not playing since December 14, Adams leads the NFL in receiving scores.

Nacua recorded 129 receptions to lead the league, with 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns. He enters the playoffs on fire after concluding the regular season on a tear. Nacua tallied 27 receptions, 348 yards receiving, and four touchdowns over the last three games for the Rams.

The Rams’ backfield is also formidable, featuring running backs Kyren Williams and Blake Corum. Williams leads the team with 1,252 yards and 10 touchdowns, averaging 4.8 yards per carry. Overall, the Rams rank first in the league with 394.6 yards and 30.5 points per game.

Defense

The Rams’ defense opened the season as one of the brightest units in the NFL. Before their 31–28 loss to the Panthers in Week 13, they were holding opponents to just 17.5 points per game, the third-best mark in the league. Since then, they’ve regressed, with the secondary in particular showing some vulnerabilities.

Through Week 18, the Rams allowed 20.4 points per game, ranking 10th in the NFL. They remain one of the better defensive units in the league, but there’s a legitimate case to be made that they have slipped and put on tape some areas that can be exploited.

In the final six games, the Rams’ defense allowed a minimum of 27 points in four games. The source of their issues primarily comes from the secondary that can be exploited. Darnold was able to demonstrate that much against the Rams. With 216.7 passing yards allowed per game, the Rams are 17th in the NFL.

Against the run, they’ve held up reasonably well, yielding 110.8 rushing yards per game. However, that doesn’t put either the run or pass defense in the top 10. In any event, there are pieces on this defense that can make a huge splash in the playoffs.

Byron Young recorded his 12th sack of the season, tied for the 8th-most in the NFL. He's the first Rams player to hit the 12-sack mark in a season since Aaron Donald in 2021.

LB Byron Young has been a major disruptor, tallying 82 tackles and leading the Rams in sacks with 12. Alongside leading tackler Nate Landman and pass rusher Jared Verse, who notched 7.5 sacks, the Rams still boast a tough, well-rounded defense that can get after the quarterback.

While Matthew Stafford’s MVP-caliber season has drawn much of the spotlight, don’t overlook the Rams’ defense. However, they need to get back to what worked earlier in the season, or Stafford will be forced to win shootouts in the postseason. That’s something he’s capable of, but there won’t be any margin for error.

I was higher on the Rams before they began to show some defensive lapses. Young, for instance, was much stronger in the first half of the season.

Nevertheless, there is still plenty of talent on the defensive side of the ball that could deliver clutch plays at just the right time in January.

Denver Broncos (+700)

• • Head Coach: Sean Payton
  • 2025-26 Record: Record: 14-3 (First AFC West)
  • Super Bowl Titles: 3
  • Key Players: Bo Nix (QB), Courtland Sutton (WR), Nik Bonitto (LB), Jonathan Cooper (LB), Talanoa Hufanga (S)

The Denver Broncos ended the Kansas City Chiefs’ reign of terror in the AFC West. For the first time since 2015, the Broncos are divisional champs after the Chiefs failed to win their 10th consecutive title. There appears to be a changing of the guard, and the Broncos are at the forefront of that charge.

After a 31-7 Wild Card exit to the Buffalo Bills last year, the Broncos have shown major strides. Spearheaded by one of the best defenses in the league, they shouldn’t be taken lightly in the postseason.

Do any bettors have faith in QB Bo Nix, though? With the top overall record in the AFC, the Broncos earned a bye week in the first round of the playoffs.

Let’s dive into the details, and find out of the Broncos are worth it for your 2026 Super Bowl picks:

Offense

The Broncos will lean heavily on their defense to pave the way in the playoffs. If they’re going to win the Super Bowl, it will be primarily because their defense shuts down opposing offenses. Still, they’ll need Nix to make a few key plays when it matters.

The quarterback started the season unevenly but settled in during the second half. He threw six touchdowns and just two interceptions over the final four regular-season games. The Oregon product finished the year with 3,931 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions while completing 63.4% of his passes.

Bo Nix is the first QB in NFL history to win 10+ games and score 30+ total TDs in each of his first two seasons.

WR Courtland Sutton was his favorite target, as the 30-year-old veteran hauled in 74 receptions, 1,017 yards, and seven touchdowns. Flanking Sutton on the other side, Nix’s former collegiate teammate WR Troy Franklin had a productive campaign, too. He finished with 709 yards and six touchdowns.

RB J.K. Dobbins hasn’t played since November 6, but could be back before the Super Bowl. Former UCF Knight, RB RJ Harvey, has done a solid job replacing Dobbins in the backfield. However, Dobbins’ presence would change the dynamic for the Broncos’ offense.

The offensive line enters the playoffs with a couple of question marks after being hit by the injury bug late in the season. LT Garett Bolles exited with an ankle injury, and center Alex Forsyth suffered the same issue.

With center Luke Wattenberg already sidelined, their depth up front could be tested in their Divisional Round matchup.

This isn’t the league’s most explosive offense, but it’s more than serviceable and should be fine with the defense consistently setting up strong field position.

Defense

The Broncos’ defense is the hallmark of this roster. With numerous playmakers on the field, they can get to the Super Bowl on the back of their defensive effort.

Through 18 games, the Broncos are third with 18.3 points allowed per game. Overall, they are the top-ranked defense, yielding an average of 278.2 yards in 2025-26.

Teams with struggling offensive lines are going to be a miserable experience playing against the Broncos’ pass rushers. Denver leads the NFL with four sacks per game, which is 0.6 more than the next closest team. Edge rusher Nik Bonitto was a beast for the Broncos, as he racked up 14 sacks and 14 TFLs in the regular season.

They can generate pressure from anywhere on the field. The Broncos have four players with at least seven sacks in their portfolio. Jonathan Cooper brought down eight quarterbacks behind the line of scrimmage, while John Franklin-Myers was active with 7.5 sacks.

Also, the Broncos have been exceptional against the run. They’ve allowed an impressive 91.1 yards per game to rank second in the NFL. Coupled with their pass rush, the Broncos have put teams in tough third-and-long situations often this season. It could be long nights for offensive coordinators trying to prepare for the Broncos’ defense!
