Super Bowl LVIII is still a few weeks away, but that doesn’t mean oddsmakers aren’t gearing up for the 2024 season when it comes to future bets.
Whoever wins this year’s Super Bowl will undoubtedly be one of the favorites to win next year’s as well, even before free agency and the NFL draft begin.
There is always a least favorite team to win, though, with incredibly long odds to take home the Lombardi Trophy.
This year, it’s none other than the team that finished with the worst record in the NFL – the Carolina Panthers, who have +20,000 odds to win the Super Bowl (via DraftKings).

This should come as no surprise considering how poorly Carolina played this year coupled with the reality that they also don’t have the No. 1 overall pick after the Panthers traded it to the Chicago Bears a year ago to move up and draft quarterback Bryce Young.
It doesn’t help, either, that the Panthers will have a first-year, first-time head coach in Dave Canales, who joined the team after just one season as a Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator.
The biggest issue is that the Panthers didn’t have a lot of talent in 2023 and have no real way of acquiring more talent in 2024 unless they make some wild offseason moves.
A lot of the team’s success or failures will hinge on Young’s ability to improve dramatically after a poor rookie season and Canales’s ability to develop him as a quality quarterback.
Oddmakers aren’t too optimistic that either will happen enough to vault the Panthers from the worst team in the NFL to the best in just one season.
