The Seattle Seahawks emerged victorious in rather dominant fashion last night over the New England Patriots by a score of 29-13. And while the Seahawks had some decent play on offense, it was their defense that stymied the Patriots, holding them to almost nothing before some garbage time yards added up in the fourth quarter.

Now, we look forward to Super Bowl 61. What are the odds that our Cleveland Browns can be in this spot a year from now? According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Browns have 125/1 odds of winning the Super Bowl in 2027. While that’s still a big step back from two years ago, when they were 35/1, it’s actually an improvement from last year, when they were 140/1.

The Browns may not have Jim Schwartz returning as defensive coordinator, but a large percentage of their top defense will return. Then, on offense, you can only hope there will be improvement with new head coach Todd Monken bringing a new approach on offense, and Cleveland having two first round picks to upgrade the talent on that side of the ball.

The odds for the AFC North teams are listed below:

  • Cincinnati Bengals (30/1) – worse than last year, when they were 18/1
  • Baltimore Ravens (12/1) – worse than last year, when they were 6.5/1
  • Cleveland Browns (125/1) – better than last year, when they were 140/1
  • Pittsburgh Steelers (100/1) – worse than last year, when they were 65/1

The early favorites for next year’s Super Bowl are the Seattle Seahawks (7.5/1), Los Angeles Rams (8/1), Baltimore Ravens (12/1), Buffalo Bills (12/1), and Green Bay Packers (13/1).

What do you think of the Browns’ odds? Would you place an early bet, hoping to hit big?
