The Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers — who faced off in Super Bowl LVIII — are the early favorites to win their respective conferences once again this upcoming season.
Even though San Francisco lost the big game, the 49ers had the lowest odds entering the offseason at +225 to win the NFC. Now, the Niners’ odds in that market have lengthened slightly to +240.
The Chiefs were +330 to win the AFC immediately following the Super Bowl. Those odds are now at +370.

FOX Sports betting analysts Geoff Schwartz and Sam Panayotovich gave their insights for the upcoming season.
Schwartz said the Chiefs are the AFC’s best until someone dethrones them.
“Last season was supposed to be an offensive rebuild, but they went out and won the Super Bowl,” Schwartz said. “This season, the Chiefs had their worst offense in the [Patrick] Mahomes era, but it didn’t matter as they won the Super Bowl again.”

Sammy P said the Packers are a long shot worth considering.
“Green Bay’s offense was extremely explosive from Thanksgiving Day through the playoffs, as Jordan Love emerged as one of the league’s most efficient quarterbacks,” Panayotovich said. “Assuming the Packers take another step forward, they can easily win the NFC North and host a playoff game.”
The Chiefs and 49ers were the preseason conference favorites at +350 in late February last year.
