NFL & Super Bowl HIstory
NFL history dates back to 1920. In 1960, the American Football League (AFL) was created to serve as a rival league. The two leagues eventually merged, which is how the Super Bowl was created. In 1967, the first Super Bowl was played between the Kansas City Chiefs, who won the AFL and the Green Bay Packers, who won the NFL. By 1970, the two leagues formally merged with the Super Bowl continuing to be played every year between the winner of the AFC Championship Game and the winner of the NFL Championship Game.
2024-25 NFL Recap
The Chiefs began the season as the two-time defending Super Bowl champs and the early favorites to win Super Bowl 59. They proved why they were the favorites by winning 15 regular season games, setting a new franchise record. To be fair, the Bills and Ravens also put together impressive seasons in the AFC, challenging Kansas City’s supremacy. The Bills nearly won an epic conference championship game. However, as they did during the regular season, the Chiefs found a way to win a close game, sending them back to the Super Bowl, making them just the fourth team in league history to play in the Super Bowl in three straight seasons.
In the NFC, the regular season was even more interesting. The San Francisco 49ers began the season as the favorite but failed to live up to expectations. Instead, the Lions were the best team during the regular season, matching Kansas City’s 15-2 record. Alas, the Lions faltered in the playoffs, opening the door for the Eagles. The Packers, Rams, and Commanders all challenged the Eagles in the playoffs. But Philadelphia prevailed to reach the Super Bowl for the second time in the last three years.
Super Bowl LIX Predictions
Super Bowl 59 will be played on February 9, 2025, at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. This will be the 11th that New Orleans has hosted the Super Bowl, tying the Big Easy with Miami as the most frequent host city. The matchup between the Chiefs and Eagles is also a rematch of the Super Bowl two years ago that the Chiefs won 38-35.
The x-factor in Super Bowl 59 could be Philadelphia running back Saquon Barkley. He’s coming off one of the best seasons by a running back in NFL history and has been even in the playoffs, averaging 147.3 rushing yards per game. Barkley wasn’t with the Eagles when they lost to the Chiefs two years ago, so he could be a difference-maker this time around.
On the other side, the combination of head coach Andy Reid, quarterback Patrick Mahomes, and tight end Travis Kelce has been almost unbeatable on the biggest stage. Since Mahomes took over as the starting quarterback in 2018, the Chiefs are 17-3 in the playoffs. Moreover, the Kansas City defense this season has been the best it’s been during the team’s recent reign, so it’s not all up to Mahomes and the offense to carry the Chiefs to another championship.
Who Will Win Super Bowl LIX?
The betting odds for the Super Bowl are close with the Chiefs only favored by 1.5 points. That’s a strong indication that this will be a close game that either team could win. However, given Kansas City’s track record for winning close games both this season and in past years, backing the Chiefs is probably the smart move. One way or another, they always seem to make plays in critical situations. After all, they beat the Eagles by three points in the Super Bowl two years ago and survived an overtime game with the 49ers in last year’s Super Bowl. That gives the Chiefs more than enough experience in competitive games to find a way to win Super Bowl 59.
Awards & Other Predictions
In a Super Bowl, the only post-game award that matters is Super Bowl MVP. This award typically goes to the quarterback of the winning team, which has been the case in six of the last eight Super Bowls. All three times the Chiefs won the Super Bowl during that span, Mahomes was awarded Super Bowl MVP honors. If the Chiefs win again, Mahomes is likely to win the award again. On the other hand, if the Eagles pull off the win, it could be Barkley and not quarterback Jalen Hurts who leads the way and earns MVP honors.
NFL Betting Tips, Odds & Preview
Betting on the Super Bowl isn’t the same as betting on American Football regular season games. For starters, there is more time to focus on all of the little details and collect betting insights from pundits. It’s possible to take a closer look at how each team’s strengths and weaknesses match up against the other team. There is also time to look at betting trends from throughout the season that might be relevant in the Super Bowl. Also, since these teams met in the Super Bowl two years ago, it might be worth looking at how each team has changed over the past two years and how those changes might impact the outcome in this year’s game.
Types of Bets & How to Bet on NFL
The types of bets you find for any other NFL game will be available during the Super Bowl. At the same time, there will also be bets that are usually only available during the Super Bowl. This includes novelty props related to the coin toss, national anthem, and other aspects of the Super Bowl as an event that aren’t directly related to the action on the field.
Here are some of the most common types of bets available for the Super Bowl:
Moneyline - A moneyline bet is an outright bet on the winner of the Super Bowl.
Total - Instead of betting on the winner and loser, a total bet is based on the total points scored between both teams.
Handicap - A handicap bet is also called betting against the spread . This bet requires the favored team to win by a certain amount of points. Otherwise, the underdog will win the bet, even if they lose the game.
Game Props - There are many prop bets available during the Super Bowl, including specific score predictions and bets on certain events within the game, such as if the game will go to overtime.
Player Props - Player props are popular during the Super Bowl and relate to the stats a specific player collects during the game. For example, passing yards, rushing yards, and receiving yards for players receive an over/under value or milestones with specific odds attached.

Live Bets - Even after the Super Bowl begins, it’s possible to continue placing live bets on the game, although the odds change based on how the game unfolds.
Parlay - With a parlay , bettors can combine multiple bets from different sports into one larger bet. This increases the payout but also makes it hard to cash because every bet in a parlay must win or else the entire parlay loses.
Same Game Multi-Bet - Similar to parlay betting, a same game multi-bet allows you to place multiple types of Super Bowl bets within a single bet slip.
