The new NFL season kicks off September 7 with the Kansas City Chiefs hosting the Detroit Lions at Arrowhead Stadium. Over the next month, many NFL futures bets will be placed as NFL fans gear up for another thrilling season. The defending Super Bowl champions are the 6-1 favorites to repeat according to the latest 2024 Super Bowl odds, but that’s only one way to bet on the NFL this season. For example, the San Francisco 49ers are 10.5 in the latest 2023 NFL win totals, the favorites to win the NFC West according to NFL futures odds.
Other notable NFL win totals include the Dallas Cowboys (9.5), New York Jets (9.5), Pittsburgh Steelers (9) and New England Patriots (7.5).

Top 2023 NFL futures bets
White and Hartstein are both targeting under 7.5 wins for the Chicago Bears for a +105 payout. The Bears started the season strong last year, winning two of their first three games. However, Chicago went on to lose 13 of its next 14 games, including its last 10 matchups.
The Bears averaged just 130.5 passing yards per game last season, which ranked dead-last in the NFL. To make matters worse, Chicago lost running back David Montgomery in free agency this offseason. Montgomery scored 26 rushing touchdowns in four seasons with the Bears, a heavy blow for a team that averaged just 19.2 points per game.
Defensively, the Bears gave up 375.9 yards per game in 2022-23, which ranked 29th. While the Bears are positioned to show improvement with quarterback Justin Fields under center, there are still clear holes on the roster. Head to SportsLine now to see the rest of White, Hartstein, McClure and Selesnick’s picks broken down by team.
