With Kansas City dispatching of the Ravens in the AFC Championship and cementing their spot in the 2024 Super Bowl, oddsmakers placed Kansas City atop the remaining teams as current Super Bowl favorites.

The longshot to come out of the NFC, the Detroit Lions, are considered slight underdogs currently as we await the winner of the NFC Championship game against the 49ers.

As the two supposed underdogs may face each other in the Super Bowl, let’s talk about the possible Kansas City vs. Lions Super Bowl 2024 matchup.

Current Super Bowl 2024 odds have Kansas City as the favorite over the Lions (+115 or better)

With Kansas City’s win over the original AFC favorite Ravens, Patrick Mahomes and KC boosted their status in sportsbook’s eyes and have jumped in the lead as the new favorite to win Super Bowl 58.

You can bet on Kansas City at +115 to win the Super Bowl at BetMGM.

This is in line with one of the DraftKings Super Bowl special bets that was offered this past week, which had Kansas City listed as a -3 favorite over the Lions in a hypothetical matchup you could have wagered on.

It’s the fourth Super Bowl in five years for Mahomes and Kansas City, while Dan Campbell would be leading a Lions team who have not sniffed the playoffs in a while, but are currently on a Cinderella run.

Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes now the favorite for Super Bowl 58 MVP

With NFL MVP favorite Lamar Jackson now out of the playoffs and off the board for Super Bowl 2024 MVP, along with Patrick Mahomes’ performance to get them to the Super Bowl, it’s easy to see why Mahomes is now the favorite to win Super Bowl MVP.

As we await the final score for the NFC Championship to determine KC’s opponent, Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes has +140 odds for Super Bowl 58 MVP at FanDuel, with Niners QB Brock Purdy around a +340 and running back Christian McCaffrey around +600.

Lions quarterback Jared Goff can be found at a +1100 at FanDuel.

No matter who Mahomes faces in the Super Bowl, he’ll have the postseason experience edge as he heads to his fourth Super Bowl in the past five years, with nearly 5,000 passing yards in the postseason alone. It’s no surprise that he’d be the leading MVP candidate no matter who he faces. But look out for Travis Kelce +1500 or better as a possible MVP, or even a Kansas City defensive player like George Karlaftis, who is a +6500 option after coming up huge in the AFC Championship.
