Now that the combatants for Super Bowl LV are known, it’s time to look forward to Super Bowl LVI. This year’s big game hasn’t been played yet? So what, it’s time to look ahead to next season, and the oddsmakers are right there with all the fans.

Everyone knows this season was a bit of an aberration for the Dallas Cowboys due to the injuries they suffered, especially on the offensive side of the ball. Losing Dak Prescott, Tyron Smith and La’el Collins for most or all of the season and also losing Zack Martin was far too much for any team to overcome in normal circumstances, much less in the middle of a panny with a new coaching staff. So their 6-10 record is hardly seen as indicative of the roster’s overall potential. It shouldn’t come as a shock that, even before free agency and the draft, Dallas is in the Top 10 of odds-on favorites to make it out of the NFC next season.

Dallas is +2500 according to Bet MGM’s early odds.

The odds aren’t the best, in fact they are just the seventh best in the NFC and tied for the 10th best overall. The Packers are +900, followed by the NFC champion Tampa bay Buccaneers at +1200. Also ahead of Dallas are the 49ers, Saints, Seahawks and Rams.

Dallas is far ahead of NFC East rivals Philadelphia (+5000), New York (+6600) and Washington (+6600). One would have to assume if Washington lands one of the quarterbacks on the veteran trade market their odds will make a significant jump.

The Kansas City Chiefs are the favorites to win the Super Bowl next year, which if Vegas is right will be a three-peat. The Chiefs are 3.5 favorites over the Bucs for next Sunday.
