Looking into Super Bowl futures, the Patriots and Steelers are interesting. Both have pretty good defenses, good coaches, and QBs on rookie contracts. The Steelers also have some talented skilled players on offense. The Patriots don’t really but have cap space. Of course it’ll depend on them both getting better QB play next year.
I put $20 on the Patriots at 60-1. Nothing crazy. But I expect them to make some off-season moves and for those odds to shrink over the next few months.
Mahomes is one of the rare highly-paid QBs (top 5/10 in salary) to win the Super Bowl. The good odds are when you can find well-coached teams with QBs on reasonable contracts (often rookie deals) and talent around them. Unfortunately I’ve lose twice with this strategy but have come close each time (Bengals last year, Eagles this year.) maybe this year it will payoff.
