According to DraftKings Sportsbook, the top five teams with the best odds to win Super Bowl LIX are as follows:
- San Francisco 49ers, +550
- Kansas City Chiefs, +650
- Baltimore Ravens, +900
- Buffalo Bills, +1000
- Detroit Lions, +1200
Conversely, the Carolina Panthers are at the bottom of the list with odds of +25000. Among NFC West teams, the Los Angeles Rams trail behind the 49ers with odds of +3500.
None of this offers consolation for the defeated 49ers, who will remain haunted by the disappointment of Sunday's loss and the missed opportunities it entailed. They will carry that heartbreak with them throughout the offseason.
"I hurt the most for the players," head coach Kyle Shanahan said after the game. "I can't tell you guys how long it takes to get here and just how long an NFL season is, going through January and all the way into February. So our guys, I hurt for them the most."
