With the preseason wrapped up, the NFL’s 2025 regular season is just over a week away from getting started. The league fires up its regular season with the Philadelphia Eagles hosting the Dallas Cowboys next Thursday, while the Green Bay Packers host the Detroit Lions the following Sunday to get the NFC North underway. Three of those four mentioned teams above are near the top of the list of contenders for Super Bowl LX, which will be played on February 8, 2026 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
With the regular season about to begin, season-long prop and futures bets are a primary focus over the next few days, and not just for bettors. It’s a good opportunity for fans of all kinds to gauge the preseason expectations for their teams and their favorite players, and those expectations are reasonably high for the Packers this season.
Here is a look at the current odds involving the Packers as of Monday, August 25th, as provided by FanDuel sportsbook.
Only five teams have shorter odds than the Packers’ 19:1 odds to win this year’s Super Bowl at this point. That group includes a pair of NFC teams in the Eagles (+700) and Lions (+1100) and three from the AFC: Baltimore (+650), Buffalo (+750), and Kansas City (+1100).
There’s a big gap between that group of five teams and the next set, however. The 49ers join the Packers at +1900, while another two teams are at +2000 and three more sit at +2200.
If you really want to get crazy and bet on the Packers to play in the Super Bowl against a specific opponent, those odds are available as well. As one would imagine from the odds listed above, the top three possibilities for the Packers to face are the Ravens (+4000), Bills (+4000), and Chiefs (+4500).
Packers to miss playoffs: +104
The odds clearly favor the Packers to be in the postseason one way or another in 2025. If they do so, it would be their third straight playoff appearance, with the team making it as a Wild Card each of the last two years. There are intriguing odds on the Packers to do more than that, however.
The Lions are the best bet to win the division this season at +160, but the Packers sit in a decent second place at +240 with Minnesota back at +300. This one could be intriguing for Green Bay, particularly with the Lions losing significant depth on the offensive line as well as both coordinators.
We dove deeper into this line last week, and the odds remain the same as they were last Thursday. The Packers won 11 games last season and 9 the year before; what...
