The San Francisco 49ers are making a statement this season, leaving no doubt about which team is the NFL's best. Any lingering doubt was extinguished during Sunday night's 42-10 dismantling of the Dallas Cowboys.
The unbeaten 49ers are averaging over 33 points per game through five weeks, boasting an average margin of victory of nearly 20 points. Their dominant play has improved their Super Bowl odds, furthering the distance between first and second place.
San Francisco entered Week 5 with the best Super Bowl odds, sitting at +500, per BetMGM.
That improved to +375 after their win over the self-proclaimed "America's Team." The boost is evidence of a growing confidence in what head coach Kyle Shanahan's squad is capable of this season.
The Kansas City Chiefs own the second-best odds at +550, while the only other undefeated team, the Philadelphia Eagles, come in at No. 3 with +700 odds.
The 49ers have created a considerable gap between themselves and the rest of the NFL.
This week's power rankings have the Bay Area team unanimously in the top spots, proving that the national media has taken notice, declaring that this could be the Niners' year.
Below are BetMGM's Super Bowl odds heading into Week 6, as of Tuesday morning.

Ian Rapoport sends clear message regarding 49ers' Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel
One thing is clear: Ian Rapoport expects Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel to be on the San Francisco 49ers roster when the team takes the field in Week 1 of the 2024 season. At this point, most probably feel that way. The fact that both stayed with the team throughout the draft clearly signals that general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan intend to retain their two talented receivers—at least for one more season.
"Week 1 of 2024, it looks like they both will be [on the roster]," Rapoport told guest host Tom Pelissero on "The Rich Eisen Show."
However, nothing in the NFL is ever certain.
"Now, look, crazy things can happen," Rapoport continued. "Someone loses a star receiver, they decide to give the 49ers something of value for this
