NFL Season 2023: Chiefs and Mahomes Set for Another Stellar Year

The 2023 NFL season gets underway in September with one question dominating the headlines – will the Kansas City Chiefs keep building their dynasty?

Having ended their 50-year wait to win the Super Bowl in 2019, the Chiefs have continued to be one of the top teams in the NFL.

The Chiefs reached the Super Bowl the following season, before narrowly missing out on another appearance in the championship decider in 2021.

They put those disappointments firmly behind them last season, defeating the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 to claim another Super Bowl.

With that in mind, we assess some of the key betting angles to consider this season, starting with a look at the Chiefs’ hopes of winning another championship.

Highlights

  • Chiefs favourites to go back-to-back.
  • Mahomes fancied for another MVP award.
  • Rodgers set to fire Wilson to greater heights.

Chiefs Set to Emulate the Patriots

The New England Patriots are the only team to win back-to-back Super Bowls this century, but the Chiefs look a good bet to emulate them.

The top betting apps are taking no chances with the Chiefs, installing them as best-priced 6/1 favourites to claim their fourth Super Bowl.

With head coach Andy Reid and quarterback Patrick Mahomes still on board, the Chiefs will be extremely tough to beat again this season.

Mahomes Eyeing Another MVP Prize

If the Chiefs have another strong season in the NFL, Mahomes should be firmly in contention to win the third MVP award of his career.

He won the prize in 2018 and 2022, and will be keen to follow in the footsteps of Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers who won the award back-to-back during the 21st century.

Mahomes can be backed at odds of 7/1 on new betting sites to emulate that duo, and plenty of punters will be willing to back him to achieve the feat.

Wilson Could Have a Stellar Year with the Jets

The New York Jets have not reached the NFL play-offs in the past 12 seasons, but that could be about to change now they have acquired Rodgers as their quarterback.

Rodgers will likely bring the best out of wide receiver Garrett Wilson, who recorded 1,103 receiving yards last season despite being fed by an underwhelming core of QBs.

Odds of 16/1 with UK betting sites to lead the NFL in receiving yards look great each-way value, and would deliver a solid return to punters even if he finishes in the top three.
