Super Bowl LV: Early Longshot Projections
Kansas City captured its first Super Bowl in 50 years when MVP quarterback Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs to a come-from-behind victory over San Francisco in Super Bowl LIV. Heading into the offseason, it’s never too early to begin looking at next year.
The Chiefs (+500) are, of course, the early favorite to win it all again in 2020. What Kansas City – and New England and everyone before them – has shown the rest of the NFL is a certain recipe that makes a Super Bowl possible. First, it’s all the about the quarterback. A running game is nice and a top-level defense is even better.
With that in mind, what teams might be a nice longshot value pick for 2020? We thought you’d never ask.You might want to wager on one or more of these outcomes at a USA online casino!
The Not-So-Longshot
The Philadelphia Eagles won their last four regular season games in 2019 to capture the NFC East. They were ousted in the first round of the playoffs by Seattle, but the 2020 Eagles could be a value pick at +1400 to win next season’s Super Bowl.
The Eagles have the quarterback in Carson Wentz (4,039 yards passing, 27 TDs) as well as a solid running game and a defense that features two very good edge rushers in Brandon Graham (8.5 sacks) and Derek Barnett (6.5).
If you want a bit more value, Green Bay and Seattle check in at +1500. For Seattle, it appears all the Seahawks need is QB Russell Wilson. He almost wills Seattle to victory. The same is true in Green Bay where veteran Aaron Rodgers led the Packers to a 13-3 finish and an NFC North title in 2019.
Dallas (+1600) always has one of the NFL’s best rushing attacks and QB Dak Prescott finished second in the NFL in passing with 4,902 yards. The Cowboys success will hinge on getting Prescott signed this offseason.
True Longshots
If you want a true longshot, look no further than the AFC South. Houston (10-6) won the division with QB DeShaun Watson (3,852 yards, 26 TDs) and a top-10 running game led by Carlos Hyde (1,070 rushing yards). The Texans led the Super Bowl champion Chiefs 24-0 in the postseason but imploded and lost 51-31. If the Houston defense can return to form in 2020, it might make them a nice longshot pick at +2000.
The better longshot pick is Tennessee. At +2200, the Titans offer tremendous value especially after surprising everyone by playing for the AFC title last year. NFL Comeback Player of the Year Ryan Tannehill is back at quarterback and the Titans will return the league’s leading rusher in Derrick Henry (1,540 yards, 16 TDs). Under head coach Mike Vrabel, the Titans are always sound on defense and, as a result, could find themselves right back where they left off in 2019.
The Ultimate Longshot
Remember, Kansas City’s opponent San Francisco was 4-12 the year before playing the Super Bowl. Thinking along those lines and remembering the recipe for success, the 2020 ultimate longshot bet to win Super Bowl LV is…the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Steelers are given +2600 odds to win, which would be a nice payout should it happen – and it could. QB Ben Roethlisberger will return from an injury last season and the defense is loaded. T.J. Watt could have easily won the NFL’s Rookie of the Year after recording 14.5 sacks, 55 tackles, 23 tackles for loss, eight pass breakups, eight forced fumbles, and two interceptions. An experienced quarterback and one of the NFL’s best defenses could propel Pittsburgh to a surprising Lombardi Trophy.

Astute bettors know that at -110 odds (the standard for NFL picks against the spread), you need to win 52.4% of your bets to break even. That decimal is rounded up, so you’d actually make a tiny fraction in profit at that rate. Picking EVERY NFL GAME, with no points shopping or shaving, the FF-Winners self-taught AI computer has won 53.1%, 55.4%, 52.9%,47.3%(covid), 53.4%,54.9% of ATS picks, respectively, in the last 6 years. These are publicly audited results. It is THE ONLY NFL SYSTEM (out of 65+ tracked) to be profitable against the pointspread in 5 of the last 6 years! During this period, FF-Winners has finished 1st or 2nd each year in at least 1 of the 6 metrics tracked!
IN 2020, each week we entered our top 5 rated bets in the MyBookie NFL Supercontest. We finished 81st out of about 1500 participants for a $394 prize (on a $100 entry fee). We won 61.1 percent of our bets for almost a 300 percent return on investment!
Results from Supercontests suggest that only 30% of bettors are profitable over a season and that even the very best bettors only score between 65% and 70%. Anybody claiming results above this (such as on Twitter or Facebook) is simply lying (or they could win $1.5 million in the Westgate Supercontest, for example).

FILM STUDY: How the Chiefs will Frustrate the 49ers.
February 1, 2020 by
The Problem for the 49ers is they play mainly zone, so that the Chiefs can lengthen the field due to
their speed, and then curl back into soft spots. RPOs with Hill or Hardman will drive the 49ers linebackers crazy. On defense Kansas City’s run defense will be able to defend the edge, like they did against Henry.
