Betting on the Falcons for the Super Bowl in 2025: Odds, team win total, prop bets, and top futures wagers for Atlanta
The Atlanta Falcons are gearing up for an exciting season in 2025, with a new quarterback at the helm and a promising roster. The team has set its sights on a promising campaign, as they are projected to win under 7.5 games with odds of +130 at Caesars.
Last year, the Falcons selected Michael Penix Jr. as the No. 8 overall pick in the draft, seen as a potential long-term replacement for Matt Ryan. The young QB had a promising start to his career, albeit a brief one, with three starts under his belt. In those games, he averaged 32 points per game for the Falcons.
The Falcons' offense is expected to be one of the better units in the league this year, boasting great talent at the skill positions. However, there's been little improvement around Penix Jr. on the offensive side, leading to some concerns about the team's ability to consistently score points.
The Falcons made some notable signings during the offseason, including wide receiver D.J. Chark and linebacker Leonard Floyd. Floyd, who signed a one-year, $10 million deal, is the team's biggest signing of the offseason on an average annual value basis. The Falcons also signed Kirk Cousins to a $180 million deal as a potential short-term replacement for Matt Ryan, but Cousins struggled to return to form after an Achilles tear in 2023 and was later replaced by Penix Jr.
On the defensive side, there's a lot of turnover on the roster. The Falcons used two first-round picks on Jalon Walker and James Pearce, and also selected two defensive backs in the draft.
The schedule for the Falcons this year is fairly easy, with only three of the final 13 games being played against playoff teams from a year ago. This could potentially help the team's record, but the offense will need to perform consistently to take full advantage of the schedule.
Penix Jr.'s MVP odds are 6600 at BetMGM, and he's expected to throw over 3350.5 passing yards, according to FanDuel, with odds of -114. The over/under for his passing yards is 3400.5 at FanDuel, and the over/under for his passing touchdowns is 18.5 at DraftKings. The odds for Penix Jr. to throw over 2000 passing yards are 2000 at BetMGM.
Despite the promising outlook, there are concerns about Penix Jr.'s accuracy, as he completed under 60% of his passes in his three starts, with three touchdowns and three picks. The Falcons will need to address these issues if they want to achieve their projected win total.
The Falcons' Offensive Player of the Year odds for Penix Jr. are 10000 at Caesars, indicating a long shot for the award. With a promising roster and a relatively easy schedule, the Falcons will look to capitalize on these advantages and make a push for the playoffs in 2025.
