Sportsbooks now list the 49ers ahead of the Rams, who had held the top spot for much of the season.\n\nThe move follows another marquee loss for the Rams on Monday night, though they still sit near the top of the board despite a 2-3 record. The Bills and Ravens round out the group just behind the new co-favorites.\n\nElsewhere in the odds, the Jaguars are closing in on the Ravens and Chiefs, a sign that the league's betting landscape is shifting well before the stretch run. None of this locks anything in, but it does show how quickly perception can change based on a single prime-time result.\n\nFor now, the 49ers and Rams share the top of the market, with Buffalo and Baltimore keeping pace just behind them. Expect the numbers to keep moving as more divisional and conference games play out.","published_at":"2026-10-13T23:18:46.370532+00:00","source_count":4,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"49ers are now the favorites to win the Super Bowl, moving ahead of Rams in betting odds","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/49ers-now-favorites-win-super-195601031.html"},{"outlet":"Pro Football Talk","publisher":"NBC Sports","title":"49ers are now the favorites to win the Super Bowl, moving ahead of Rams in betting odds","url":"https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/49ers-are-now-the-favorites-to-win-the-super-bowl-moving-ahead-of-rams-in-betting-odds"},{"outlet":"The Athletic","publisher":"The Athletic","title":"Super Bowl odds: Rams still favored over Bills as Jaguars close in on Ravens, Chiefs","url":"https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7686645/2026/10/13/super-bowl-odds-tracker-rams-bills-jaguars/"},{"outlet":"ESPN","publisher":"ESPN","title":"Super Bowl LXI odds: 49ers join Rams on top, just ahead of Bills, Ravens","url":"https://www.espn.com/espn/betting/story/_/id/47809892/2026-super-bowl-lxi-odds-nfl-sports-betting-season-win-totals-playoffs"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Unbeaten 49ers replace Rams as Super Bowl favorites after Los Angeles falls to 2-3","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/unbeaten-49ers-replace-rams-super-171448708.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Rams’ odds to win NFC West drop under 20%","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/rams-odds-win-nfc-west-191336132.html"}],"image":{"url":"https://nbcsports.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/eeef79e/2147483647/strip/false/crop/1920x1080+0+0/resize/1920x1080!/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fhdliveextra-a.akamaihd.net%2FHD%2Fimage_sports%2FNBCU_Sports_Group_-_nbcsports%2F300%2F246%2FGreenlawsuspensuionpftneww10-13.jpg","credit":"Pro Football Talk","width":1920},"embed":null,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","attribution":"Analysis data is licensed CC BY 4.0.
