Regardless of what pessimistic fans, analysts and odds tell you…all 32 NFL teams have a scientifically and mathematically possible shot at winning the Super Bowl. That’s the beauty of this sport: It’s truly ANY given Sunday.
With that all said, let’s dive into one reason why your favorite NFL team will win Super Bowl 58.
Arizona Cardinals: Kyler Murray Has Something To Prove
Bear with us. We’re just trying to be positive…as we have to do for all 32 teams on this list.
Best-case scenario for Arizona? Their backup QBs keep the team around .500 until Murray returns. He comes back with a vengeance and plays up to his Pro Bowl-like standards…gets hot in January, his teammates rally around him and defy all odds by winning the Super Bowl.
Atlanta Falcons: Offensive Firepower
Kyle Pitts. Drake London. Bijan Robinson. Tyler Allgeier. Cordarrelle Patterson. Five guys who can realistically put up 1,000 yards of offense in 2023.

Don’t get us wrong, you need defense to win. But maybe this 2023 Falcons’ squad outscores all of its problems en route to a championship.
Baltimore Ravens: A Bolstered Passing Game
Having a top-tier rushing offense is fun, but it’s not enough to win a Super Bowl in today’s pass-heavy NFL league. Fortunately for Ravens fans, the front office and coaching staff finally took note.
They replaced Greg Roman at OC with Todd Monken, who’ll run a more balanced offense. Odell Beckham Jr.., Nelson Agholor and rookie Zay Flowers give Lamar Jackson a great set of receivers to complement Mark Andrews and the rushing game.
Buffalo Bills: They're DUE For Some GOOD LUCK
A top-three QB. A top-five wide receiver. A top-five offense. A top-five defense. You know how great the Bills are. What more will it take for them to finally break through?
Honestly, just luck at this point. They haven’t gotten the postseason bounces that other juggernauts seem to get more often than not. The Bills are too freaking talented to just disappoint in January again.
This has to be the year. Right?! Right?!
Carolina Panthers: A Balanced Offense
Been a while since Carolina had a dangerous passing game to complement its always-stout rushing game. But with first overall pick Bryce Young taking over the offense now, Carolina finally has a QB that can strike fear into the opposing team’s secondaries.
If the Young and Frank Reich-led offense comes along as hoped, Carolina’s potent passing game and explosive rushing offense could carry this team all the way.
Cincinnati Bengals: Joe Burrow & The Offensive Firepower
What more needs to be said? Joe Burrow is a top-five QB. He’s led Cincy to consecutive AFC Championship Game appearances. Teams just can’t contain his dangerous receiving trio of Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd…not to mention capable 1,000-yard rusher Joe Mixon.
Burrow and company have been laying the boom on opposing defenses over the last two years. Why can’t they do it again this year and finally break through with the franchise’s first championship?
Chicago Bears: Justin Fields Has Weapons
If the Bears shock the world and win the Super Bowl this year, it’ll be because of the offense.
The weapons around Fields are beautiful: Newcomer DJ Moore, two more potential 1K receivers in Chase Claypool and Darnell Mooney and a pair of capable 1,000-yard rushers in Khalil Herbert and D’Onta Foreman.
And TD machine Cole Kmet isn’t too shabby, either.
Dare we say this offense could go off and lead Chicago to a championship?
Cleveland Browns: Defensive Dogs
You need defense to win, and the Browns have it.
Myles Garrett is a top-five defensive player in the league right now. The Browns also added Ogbo Okoronkwo, Dalvin Tomlinson, Shelby Harris and Za’Darius Smith to bolster the pass rush around Garrett.
Denzel Ward, Juan Thornhill, Greg Newsome II and breakout candidate Martin Emerson Jr. headline a scary secondary, too.
Dallas Cowboys: Defensive Dominance
The Cowboys’ offense is always a juggernaut in the regular season, but it tends to be a no-show in the postseason. That’s just who they are.
Good thing they have a top-tier defense, though. A team that ranked fifth in scoring D last year added a world-class corner in Stephon Gilmore to complement Trevon Diggs. And you know the Micah Parsons-led front seven will be as scary as ever.
Denver Broncos: Sean Payton Will Fix Russell Wilson
If Russell Wilson can regain his Seattle Seahawks-like form, the Broncos will be dangerous in the AFC – especially when you factor in their stingy defense.
We fully expect Wilson to improve considerably with offensive guru Sean Payton now leading the offense. Payton’s too legendary to fail with another future Hall of Famer QB in Wilson. If he repairs No. 3, the Broncos can absolutely make a run.
Detroit Lions: Controlling The Trenches
You can still win the old-fashioned way in today’s NFL, and the Lions are built to do just that: A top-level offensive line, a prolific ground game with David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs and a scary front seven.
Aidan Hutchinson, James Houston, Charis Harris and Malcolm Rodriguez headline a ferocious pass rush. Detroit will play smash-em-in-the-mouth defense and look to win by wearing down their opponents with their strength and superior physicality.
They don’t need Jared Goff to be Superman if their dominance in the trenches reaches another level.
Green Bay Packers: Winning The Old-Fashioned Way
Like the Lions, the Aaron Rodgers-less Packers are actually built to win the old-fashioned way in 2023. AJ Dillon and Aaron Jones might be football’s best rushing duo, and the front seven has loaded potential here: De’Vondre Campbell, Quay Walker, Rashan Gary, Preston Smith, Kenny Clark, Devonte Wyatt and Lukas Van Ness?
These Packers could run the ball down opponents’ throats while also using their ultra-physical and fearsome front seven to win games — the way teams did it in the ‘60s and ‘70s. Aaron Rodgers who?!
Houston Texans: C.J. Stroud Time
As we did with the Cardinals’ entry, we ask you to bear with us here. The Texans are on the right path with their rebuild, but there’s not enough veteran talent in place for them to realistically win a Super Bowl.
That is, of course, unless rookie QB CJ Stroud goes off and pieces together a rookie season like no other? Maybe Stroud dominates the NFL right away, emerges as an MVP-level QB and leads Houston to a Super Bowl way sooner than anyone expected.
Indianapolis Colts: Anthony Richardson = Superman?
Again, just trying to stay optimistic here. The Colts have a bottom-five roster in terms of talent, but we also haven’t seen a freak-of-nature dual-threat QB like Anthony Richardson in quite some time.
What if A-Rich follows other dual-threat QBs like Cam Newton, Michael Vick and Lamar Jackson and enjoys immediate success? Maybe a historic rookie year from Richardson is enough for the Colts to win it all?
Jacksonville Jaguars: An Unstoppable Offense
The Jaguars’ offense could, quite literally, be unstoppable this year. Trevor Lawrence will only get better with experience. Christian Kirk, Zay Jones, Evan Engram and new arrival Calvin Ridley could all push for 1,000 yards receiving. And Travis Etienne Jr. might make the jump to top-five RB in the game.
This offensive firepower just might be way-too-much for any team to stop in 2023.
Kansas City Chiefs: Patrick Mahomes
The defense has its issues and the wide receiver room is a giant question mark. But who cares? The Chiefs have the game’s best player in Patrick Mahomes — the reigning league MVP and Super Bowl MVP.
Mahomes is all the Chiefs need to have a chance. Having Andy Reid and Travis Kelce obviously helps matters, too!
Las Vegas Raiders: Jacobs & Adams
Hard to be optimistic on the Raiders in year one of the post-Derek Carr era. But if reigning rushing champion Josh Jacobs and superstar wideout Davante Adams play up to their usual standards, the dynamic duo could be enough for the Raiders to go on an unexpected championship run?
Los Angeles Chargers: Prolific Passing Game
Superstar QB Justin Herbert will once again challenge for the MVP and crown for every major passing category.
Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are still a top-10 receiving duo. Rookie Quentin Johnston could go off, too, and do-it-all running back Austin Ekeler is always doing damage in the pass-catching game.
Hiring Kellen Moore as the new OC could help Herbert reach another level, too. If that happens, the Bolts’ high-powered passing game might deliver the franchise its first Super Bowl.
Los Angeles Rams: Championship Pedigree
The roster depth and star power isn’t as strong as 2021, but this team did just win the Super Bowl 19 months ago. Sean McVay, Matt Stafford, Cooper Kupp and Aaron Donald are still here.
With that experience and championship pedigree, don’t fully bet against the Rams. This core might – MIGHT — have one more special run in them.
Miami Dolphins: The O’s “Big Three”
Tua Tagovailoa was an MVP-level QB in year three.
It’s too bad that three head-related injuries limited his playing time. But as we saw a year ago, this Miami team is super-dangerous with a healthy Tua throwing the football to Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle — who only make up the NFL’s No. 1 receiving duo.
Miami almost got to the Divisional Round with a third-stringer last year. And may we remind you that Tua was the league’s passer rating leader last year? Yeah, this offensive trio can carry Miami to a Super Bowl if they’re all healthy.
Minnesota Vikings: Justin Jefferson. Nuff Said
The Vikings are a snake-bitten franchise that might never win a Super Bowl. Their defense is a mess and Kirk Cousins has never convinced us that he’s capable of leading a team to the promised land.
BUT…the Vikings do have the league’s best non-QB offensive player in Justin Jefferson. If he continues to build off his ridiculous 2022 season, JJ might be able to carry the bulk of the workload and take Minnesota to the Super Bowl.
New England Patriots: Bill Belichick Is Still Here
Enough with the Pats’ record in the post-Tom Brady Era. Belichick is the greatest coach ever. He also won two Super Bowls as a Giants’ assistant long before the Brady era — so yes he can win without the other GOAT.
New England’s rushing game and run D will dominate as always under Belichick. So of course they can win it all the old-fashioned way, with the greatest coach of all-time.
New Orleans Saints: Finally, A Stable QB Option
The Saints haven’t had a stable and efficient QB situation since 2018, Drew Brees’ last fully-healthy season in New Orleans. They have used five different starting QBs since Brees’ retirement yet just-barely missed out on the postseason in consecutive years.
4-Time Pro Bowler Derek Carr assumes a loaded offense led by Alvin Kamara, Chris Olave and Michael Thomas. Throw in a top-10 o-line and an elite defense, and you have all the ingredients needed to win it all.
New York Giants: Saquon Barkley
Daniel Jones isn’t elite. The defense isn’t quite top-10 level and the receiving room is loaded with question marks. But if Saquon Barkley plays up to his usual standards, he just might propel this team to a Super Bowl championship the way Terrell Davis did for the Broncos in 1997 and ‘98.
New York Jets: We’ve Got A QB!
…And a spectacular one at that.
The Jets acquired four-time league MVP Aaron Rodgers to address this team’s never-ending search for a franchise QB. He joins a team with a top-five defense from 2022, reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson and the dynamic RB duo of Dalvin Cook and Breece Hall.
Think the Jets might win a Super Bowl now that they have an elite QB? So do we!
Philadelphia Eagles: The BEST Roster…Duh
The Eagles have:
- The MVP Runner-Up
- The second-best receiving duo in football
- The NFL’s best offensive line
- The NFL’s best cornerback duo
- The NFL’s best front seven
Something tells us with zero roster weaknesses and the NFL’s top roster…the reigning NFC champs just might be good enough to win a Super Bowl. What do you think?
Pittsburgh Steelers: “The Big 3” In The Front Seven
Kenny Pickett should improve after an up-and-down rookie year, but we’re not sure if the Steelers’ young offense is ready to make the jump to “elite” in 2023.
They’ll need to rely on their D to steal games, which has been the case the last four years. Fortunately, they have a scary three-headed monster in the front seven in TJ Watt, Cameron Heyward and 2022 breakout star Alex Highsmith.
If those 3 continue to click, the Steelers can ride them to a Super Bowl.
San Francisco 49ers: A Healthy QB Room?
Who knows? If Brock Purdy didn’t tear his UCL in the NFC title game, maybe the 49ers are the reigning Super Bowl champions.
This team has been hit hard by the injury bug at QB for a while now. Eventually, they’ve gotta get some better luck on that front. As long as Brock Purdy and/or Sam Darnold are healthy, this star-studded roster should finally come together and win it all.
Seattle Seahawks: Legion Of Boom 2.0?
With all due respect to Russell Wilson, the original Legion of Boom is what propelled Seattle to consecutive NFC title banners and a Super Bowl 48 championship.
Well, dare we say the Legion of Boom 2.0 may be growing before our eyes? Tariq Woolen and Coby Bryant had phenomenal rookie years. Fifth overall pick Devon Witherspoon has future superstar written all over him, and Jamal Adams and Quandre Diggs are a top-tier safety duo.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Unstoppable Front Seven
Vita Vea is an all-world run-stopping force. Rookie Calijah Kancey should be a nice fit beside Vea on the interior part of the d-line. Shaq Barrett and Lavonte David are still elite, and maybe this is the year Devin White and Joe Tryon-Shoyinka both finally put it all together.
If the Bucs’ front seven regains its 2020 and 2021 championship-level form, they just might bring the Super Bowl back to Tampa.
Tennessee Titans: Double (D) Trouble)
“D” as in Derrick Henry and DeAndre Hopkins, that is.
The Titans don’t have a lot of strengths, but they do have an annual rushing champion contender and a five-time Pro Bowl wideout to help the offense.
Ryan Tannehill or Will Levis might just have to be average-to-above-average for the Titans to go all the way?
Washington Commanders: Defense Still Wins Championships
In Sam Howell, Washington has the most uncertain QB situation in the NFL. But maybe Howell — or Jacoby Brissett – won’t have to light it up.
What if the Commanders’ stingy defense — one that finished third in yards allowed and seventh in scoring D — does the heavy lifting again?
You do want a potent offense to win championships, but the Commanders’ resilient pass rush and lockdown secondary could be enough for the team to win it all. Hey, Dan Snyder’s not here to ruin things anymore!
Who do you think will win Super Bowl 58?
