2026 Super Bowl Rankings: The Top 10 Contenders

4. Green Bay Packers

The Packers came off their bye week and picked up a big win against the Bengals in Week 6. They are very talented on both sides of the football, and their defense has a chance to be one of the top units in the league.

5. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The offense was missing three of their top playmakers on offense this past week, and still Baker Mayfield played at an MVP level. If he continues to play that well, this Bucs team is going to be a force. Their only loss this season came against the Eagles.

6. Kansas City Chiefs

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (1) celebrates scoring a touchdown against Detroit Lions during the first half at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri on Sunday, Oct. 12, 2025.

They have not been playing their best football yet this season, but they’re still competitive. Over the next 3-4 weeks, they could easily move up these rankings, especially because the offense could get significantly better when Rashee Rice returns. Would anybody be surprised to see the Chiefs back in the Super Bowl?
