Jaguars Have 9th-Best Super Bowl 58 Odds

The Jacksonville Jaguars -- for once -- are seen as big threats to the NFL's top teams entering 2023.
After the Kansas City Chiefs knocked off the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII in a 38-35 win, odds are out on Super Bowl LVIII and the 58th rendition of the biggest event in sports.
According to Sports Illustrated's Sportsbook, the Jaguars are tied for 9th in Super Bowl 58 odds at +2500. The top-10 can be found below.
- 1) Kansas City Chiefs: +600
- 2) Buffalo Bills + San Francisco 49ers: +750
- 4) Philadelphia Eagles: +800
- 5) Cincinnati Bengals: +900
- 6) Dallas Cowboys: +1400
- 7) Los Angeles Chargers: +2000
- 8) New York Jets: +2200
- 9) Jacksonville Jaguars + Detroit Lions: +2500
- 10) Los Angeles Rams + Green Bay Packers: +2800
A few teams in front of the Jaguars are odd placements; the Jets currently do not have an NFL-caliber quarterback on their roster, while the Jaguars defeated the Chargers twice last season.
With that said, it is at least a strong sign for the Jaguars that they are as seen as strong of a team as the Lions and stronger than the Rams and Packers, three franchises who receive more national fanfare than the Jaguars on a consistent basis.
“We’re close. We’re close. I think the leadership is right, I think the core guys that we have are right. Listen, it just boils down to continuing to work hard," Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said at the conclusion of the season.
"Just trusting in each other and there’s consistency with the staff, there’s consistency with the players. You look at some of these teams now that are still playing and that’s what they’ve had. Cincinnati right now, they struggled early on, but these last couple of years, they’ve turned that corner. Kansas City is the same way, you look at the Eagles, you look at the Niners, these are teams that have been established for a while. These players have been around each other for a while. That’s what it takes. It takes that continuity and consistency; we’re just at the beginning phase of that.”
