Bills Favored at Most Books

When the very first 2022 Super Bowl odds were released, the Buffalo Bills were installed as the overall favorite. Josh Allen is one of the best quarterbacks in the league and he has some talent around him.

On the other side of the ball, the Bills had the NFL’s best defense in terms of total yards allowed per game (272.8) and points allowed per game (17.0). Many of the top experts believe Buffalo would have beaten the Bengals and the Rams had they been able to get past Kansas City. As a result, the Bills are still the 2022 Super Bowl favorite at +700.

Brady Is Back

At the end of the 2021 season, Tampa Bay QB Tom Brady decided it was time to call it a career. A few weeks later, Brady decided he’d had enough of retirement and was back in. The Bucs Super Bowl odds shifted as well.

After Brady’s retirement announcement, Tampa Bay was given +2200 odds to win it all next season. When Brady announced he was returning to play, the Bucs odds shifted dramatically. With Brady and two healthy receivers - Mike Evans and Chris Godwin - the Bucs offense would be back in 2022. Just like that, Tampa Bay was a +750 favorite to win the 2022 Super Bowl.

Trades Shake Up 2022 Super Bowl Favorites

Kansas City had been right behind Buffalo on the betting board, but the Chiefs needed some salary cap room to make their roster work. The team decided to trade WR Tyreek Hill to Miami to provide some payroll relief.

After the trade, the Chiefs fell all the way to +1000 on the board.

Their AFC West rival Denver also got involved as the Broncos traded for QB Russell Wilson which helped the Broncos go from +2500 to +1600. Kansas City is now third on the board at +900.

Can the Rams Repeat?

An NFL team has not repeated as Super Bowl champion since Brady and the New England Patriots did it in the early 2000s. The Rams will definitely have the roster to make it happen.

They return QB Matthew Stafford who won his first Lombardi Trophy. Los Angeles also returns one of the best defenses in the league. They allowed LB Von Miller to go, but they picked up LB Bobby Wagner and added another weapon for Stafford - WR Allen Robinson.

With a few subtle changes in the offseason, the Rams are now listed at +1200 to win the 2022 Super Bowl.

The Rest of the Field - 2022 Super Bowl Favorites

Green Bay is given +1100 odds at top NFL bookmakers despite letting WR Davante Adams go. QB Aaron Rodgers returns and that is why the Packers remain among the favorites.

The Browns traded for former Texans QB Deshaun Watson and watched as their Super Bowl odds fell from +3000 to +1800. Cleveland is now favored to win the AFC North and Watson is among the favorites to win the NFL Comeback Player of the Year.

Cleveland, which failed to make the postseason last year, is now listed (+1800) right behind Denver, the Los Angeles Chargers, and the Dallas Cowboys. All three teams are given +1600 odds.
