After three weeks of the NFL season, only five teams remain undefeated.
While a 3-0 start is no guarantee of postseason success, it certainly doesn’t hurt, and these five teams have gained an early lead over the competition.
Here they are, listed in order of Super Bowl odds (according to DraftKings).
Let’s take a look.
Kansas City Chiefs (+450)
The two-time defending Super Bowl champions don’t win beautifully, but they win. The Chiefs beat the Ravens by seven, the Bengals by one, and the Falcons by five. Some teams just know how to win.
Buffalo Bills (+850)
Josh Allen and the Bills have improved week by week. In Week 1 they narrowly defeated the Cardinals, then in Week 2 they dismantled the Dolphins. On Monday night they built a 34-3 lead against Jacksonville and then pulled off a 47-10 victory. Allen has thrown for 263 yards and four touchdowns – and is the early favorite for the MVP title at +200 according to Draftkings.
Minnesota Vikings (+2500)
The Sam Darnold era was good for the Vikings, who beat their three opponents – the Giants, 49ers and Texans – by an average margin of 18.3 points.
Pittsburgh Steelers (+3500)
The Steelers have thrived with Justin Fields at quarterback, but also with a defense that crushed opponents and allowed just 8.7 points per game. They have beaten the Falcons, who put pressure on Kansas City, the Broncos and the Chargers, who were 2-0 before their matchup.
The Seattle Seahawks (+4000)
The Seahawks may have benefited from a relaxed start to the season after beating the Broncos, Patriots and a Dolphins team that had to compete without star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
