With the NFL season just around the corner, it’s officially hot take time.
We’ve seen how teams have made moves — or not — and their schedules, so we can already start jumping to conclusions about what may or may not happen next season.
With that in mind, NFL analyst Evan Cohen shared his list of the seven likely teams that could make the Super Bowl next season (via UNSPORTSMANLIKE Radio).

While the list didn’t feature a particular order, it wasn’t much of a surprise to see the Kansas City Chiefs at the top of it, as they’re the back-to-back defending champions and will return most of the team.
Then, he chose the Baltimore Ravens, a team that looked poised to get back to the Super Bowl last season before some major struggles in the second half of the AFC Championship Game.
Then, he talked about the Cincinnati Bengals, who didn’t even make the playoffs last season but will get a superstar back in Joe Burrow for this season.
Unsurprisingly, he chose the San Francisco 49ers as well, as they’re fresh off a trip to the big game and are the team to beat in the NFC.
When it comes to dark horses, he has the Los Angeles Rams, who should always be dangerous with Sean McVay calling the shots and Matthew Stafford behind center.
He also has the Detroit Lions, who were just thirty minutes away from reaching the Super Bowl for the first time in franchise history last season.
Last, but not least, he chose the Green Bay Packers, who are clearly ahead of schedule in the post-Aaron Rodgers era.
Perhaps the most notable absences from this list are the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Jets, and time will tell how right or wrong he was for leaving them out.
