NFL Betting: Which Teams Have the Lowest Win Lines in 2025

With the 2025 NFL season just a few months away, betting outlets have revealed their early game lines, props, and futures. When it comes to the Super Bowl winner market, it's the usual suspects that garner top billing.

The Philadelphia Eagles head into the new campaign as the reigning champions after their destruction of the Kansas City Chiefs in New Orleans back in February, and it is the champs that online football odds providers make the team to beat next term. The latest online football odds currently price the Eagles as the +600 favorite to retain the Lombardi this season, with the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills expected to push them all the way.

 But while those three are predicted to fly high next term, some teams hold projections so low that they’re hard to ignore. Here, we break down the three teams with the lowest win lines for the 2025 season and whether the projections for each team are accurate or not.

Browns

The Cleveland Browns sit at the bottom of the league with their win line set at a paltry 4.5, and for good reason. The Ohio outfit limped through a brutal 2024 campaign, finishing 3-14. Their struggle was made all the more painful considering the fact that the veteran Joe Flacco took them to the playoffs the year before, providing the perfect foundation to build upon and return to contention in the AFC North.

Their offseason reinforced the reality that this is a franchise that is stuck in the mud, almost. The Browns have brought in no fewer than four quarterbacks, while they still have the much-maligned Deshaun Watson eating an almighty hole into their payroll. Flacco has returned, while Kenny Pickett has been brought in after a season backing up Jalen Hurts in Philadelphia. Both Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders arrived in the draft, but questions remain about both, and it remains to be seen whether either of them will see the field next term.

Another major constraint is Cleveland’s defensive line rotation. Star rusher Myles Garrett secured a four-year extension, but the roster around him remains thin, especially after losing safety Juan Thornhill and struggling to add reliable talent through free agency.

The Browns’ underwhelming 2024, instability under center, and a leaky defense are the primary reasons for their minuscule win total next term. To make matters worse, they will have to run the gauntlet of the AFC North next season, with both the Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals harboring genuine Lombardi ambitions, while the Pittsburgh Steelers will be aiming to sneak into the playoffs. As such, while that 4.5 line appears low, we wouldn't be at all confident in slamming the "over" selection any time soon.

Titans

The Tennessee Titans also went 3-14 last term, but they are projected to narrowly improve next season, with their betting line set at 5.5 wins for the upcoming season. However, even so, problems linger for a team trying to rediscover its identity in the shadow of its past dominance.

One positive from their dismal 2024 campaign was the fact that they secured top spot in the 2025 NFL draft. The Nashville side duly took full advantage, selecting talented quarterback Cam Ward first overall. The former Miami Hurricanes star is seen as a potential franchise-altering talent, but as we have seen over the last two seasons with Caleb Williams and Bryce Young, expectations of number one picks should be somewhat tempered.

The Titans are in the earliest stages of what appears to be a rebuilding effort under coach Mike Vrabel. However, unlike the aforementioned Browns, Tennessee doesn't have a grueling division to compete against next term. Both the Jaguars and the Colts missed the playoffs last season, while the Texans are perhaps the weakest of the AFC's four reigning divisional champions. While Tennessee might hover near its projected win total, hitting six victories could depend on Ward getting up to speed as quickly as possible.

Jets

The Jets landed here after a disastrous 5-12 season in 2024, missing the playoffs for the fourteenth consecutive year. Despite entering last season with considerable fanfare courtesy of Aaron Rodgers' return to fitness, the Green Machine imploded. Following that, their win line has been set at 5.5 next term, clearly showing that the bookies have next to no faith in a potential turnaround of fortunes.

This offseason, the MetLife Stadium outfit made a clear pivot to prioritize youth. The aforementioned A-Rod has been shipped off to Pittsburgh, with Justin Fields selected as his replacement. The former Chicago Bears quarterback has certainly had his moments as a starter, both at Soldier Field and last season with the Steelers, and if he can finally display some consistency, the Jets have a more than capable playmaker on their hands.

Davante Adams has also left after a disastrous stint throughout the second half of last season. However, the Jets already have the talented Garrett Wilson in the receiving corps, who is a more than capable primary target. Add to that the fact that running back Breece Hall remains, as do Sauce Gardner and Quincy Williams, and there is a reason for cautious optimism at MetLife next season.

Much of the woes last season stemmed from a gun-shy offense that ranked last in the league in terms of points. If Fields can display his best form, the Jets can certainly be competitive. The Buffalo Bills are their toughest divisional rival, but both the Dolphins and the Patriots are nothing to be feared.
