What are the Green Bay Packers' 2024 Super Bowl odds? Is Aaron Rodgers still a favorite to win MVP next season?
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
When the futures Super Bowl odds are released every year at the conclusion of a season, the Green Bay Packers are typically among the favorites.
When you have stability at quarterback and when that quarterback is an MVP candidate year after year for well over a decade, you could bet a lot of money on Green Bay being a Super Bowl favorite even if Aaron Rodgers and the Packers have only raised the Lombardi Trophy one time during his tenure and not since the 2010 season.
Well, that's not the case this offseason (at least at the moment). That's not too surprising given the team finished 8-9 and is coming off a playoff-less season. But most importantly in Vegas' eyes is the uncertainty around Rodgers' status with the Packers.
Given that, the Packers find themselves as long shots when looking around at the Super Bowl 58 odds.
Of course, those odds will likely change if the 39-year-old Rodgers comes back to the Packers for a 19th season. Perhaps, we'll find out after he comes out of his four-day darkness retreat next week. And if he returns and you think Rodgers can lead the Packers to a Super Bowl you might want to jump on those odds now before they inevitably drop. And if Rodgers retires or gets traded, you can expect the odds to increase even more this offseason.
Here's a sampling of the Packers' 2024 Super Bowl odds.
Tipico Sports
The Packers have the 10th best odds to win the Super Bowl at +3000, meaning a $100 bet would net a payout of $3,000, but that's well off the favorites. They have the same odds as the Miami Dolphins, Los Angeles Rams, Denver Broncos, Jacksonville Jaguars and Detroit Lions.
The Kansas City Chiefs, who just won the Super Bowl for the second time in four years after defeating the Philadelphia Eagles, opens as next season's favorite at +550. The Buffalo Bills have the second-lowest odds at +650. Meanwhile, the two teams that played in the NFC championship game this past season are the favorites in the NFC, though the loser of that game, the San Francisco 49ers, has lower odds (+700) than the Eagles (+750).
Packers fans can take solace in that Matt LaFleur's squad has better odds than the Minnesota Vikings, a team that ran away with the NFC North this year. The Vikings, eliminated in the NFC wild card round by the New York Giants, are more of a long shot (+4000) than the Packers at this point. The Vikings have never won a Super Bowl.
The Packers come in at +1300 odds to win the NFC, which is sixth, behind the Lions, but ahead of the Giants and Vikings, two playoff teams in 2022.
After the season, Rodgers, the 2020 and 2021 MVP, said he could win MVP again in the right situation. If you like his chances to regain his form, his MVP odds for next year are +2000, which is 10th best, with reigning MVP Patrick Mahomes tied with Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow as the favorite at +650.

The Packers come in 14th at +3500. The Broncos, New Orleans Saints and Cleveland Browns, all teams that also failed to make the playoffs this past season, have the same odds.
A team the Packers aren't accustomed to seeing with better odds to win the Super Bowl than them is the Lions. But the early line on Dan Campbell's team to raise the Lombardi Trophy – something the franchise has never done – is +2500, the same odds as the Jaguars and New York Jets, a team that is connected to Rodgers trade rumors. And let's not forget the Lions won eight of their last 10 games of the season and defeated the Packers twice during that stretch, including in the Week 18 finale to keep Green Bay out of the playoffs.
The Chiefs are the Super Bowl 58 favorites at +600.
Rodgers' MVP odds is +1600, tied with quarterbacks Trevor Lawrence, Dak Prescott and Tua Tagovailoa.
Caesars Sportsbook
Even before the confetti fell on Mahomes, Travis Kelce and Andy Reid at State Farm Stadium in Arizona on Sunday, the Chiefs were already entered as the favorites to win the 2024 Super Bowl. The Chiefs entered last season as favorites.
The Packers entered last season with the second lowest odds at +850 last year and that didn't turn out well. For next season, the Packers have 35/1 odds, along with the Dolphins, Rams, Giants and Baltimore Ravens. Again, the Lions have better odds than the Packers at 30/1. The 49ers are the NFC favorites.
A development that only has to indicate bettors' feelings about a Rodgers trade to the Jets is that after the Super Bowl 57 representatives Eagles and Chiefs, the team that has received the most money to win the 2024 Super Bowl is the Jets, who started off at 45/1.
