Who should I bet on in the NFL in 2025-2026?

NFL betting is never short on surprises, but these five teams lead the pack heading into the new season:

Buffalo Bills

Led by 2024 NFL MVP quarterback Josh Allen, the Bills powered through the season to score a franchise-record 525 points - the highest in team history - cementing their offense among the league's elite. The defense is talented but the secondary remains a liability, with coverage grades near the bottom of the NFL heading into 2025.

Baltimore Ravens

Baltimore boasts one of the league's most dynamic offenses, with Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry fueling a devastating run-pass option attack that averaged more than 30 points per game last season. The concern is up front, where an inconsistent pass rush and lack of a true game-breaking edge rusher could be exposed against a schedule stacked with top quarterbacks.

Kansas City Chiefs

Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid keep Kansas City in the Super Bowl hunt every year, but the spotlight in 2025 shines on a defense ranked among the league's best under Steve Spagnuolo, anchored by Chris Jones. The weakness is an offensive line that finished just 19th in pass blocking last season, leaving Mahomes to extend plays under constant pressure.

Philadelphia Eagles

The reigning Super Bowl champions still dominate the trenches, with a powerful offensive line paving the way for Saquon Barkley and Jalen Hurts while Vic Fangio's defense thrives on relentless front-four pressure. Their biggest challenge is a brutal late-season stretch - four games in 18 days followed by another four in 20 - that could strain depth and focus.

Detroit Lions

Despite losing both its offensive and defensive coordinators, the Lions remain the pick of the NFC North thanks to one of the league's most balanced rosters and a defense that ranked near the top of the NFL when healthy in 2024. The offensive line, however, has been weakened by retirements and departures, raising concerns about protection for Jared Goff and the team's ability to hit deep passing plays.
