Each year, Covers tracks the largest wagers on the Super Bowl right up until game time. 

We're still months away from Super Bowl LXI on Feb. 14, 2027, but it's never too early to make a call on who's next to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.

Soon after the conclusion of Super Bowl LX, and the Seattle Seahawks' 29-13 pounding of the New England Patriots, one bettor put $2,500 on the Cincinnati Bengals to beat the Dallas Cowboys in the next title game.

And that's not the oddest Super Bowl bet out there.

Super Bowl LXI Biggest Bets

Amount To Win Bet Sportsbook Date
$10,000 $200,000 Broncos to win Super Bowl (+2,000) BetMGM April 27
$10,000 $160,000 Chargers to win Super Bowl (+1,600) BetMGM July 9
$5,000 $330,000 Giants to win Super Bowl (+6,600) BetMGM July 9

July 9

The New York Giants and Denver Broncos are among the biggest liabilities at BetMGM. Likely because the sportsbook has reported that a $10,000 bet has come in on the Broncos to win Super Bowl LXI at +2,000 odds, and a $5,000 wager was placed on the Giants to win the Super Bowl at +6,600 odds.

A sound argument can be made for the Broncos, a team that reached the AFC Championship game last season and could have reached the Big Game if not for an injury to starting quarterback Bo Nix. 

The Giants are much more of a longshot, as only 10 teams have longer odds than Big Blue to lift the Lombardi Trophy. At least one bettor has fully bought in to the John Harbaugh-Jaxson Dart regime in New York.

Feb. 9

DraftKings Sportsbook announced it accepted a $2,500 wager to win $1.25 million. A video posted on the company’s X page Feb. 10 detailed the bet, which will cash if the Cincinnati Bengals beat the Dallas Cowboys in Super Bowl LXI.

The bet carries 1-in-500 odds, as both teams are the ninth-likeliest to win their respective conferences.

Here are the biggest bets made on last year's Super Bowl between the Seahawks and Patriots.

Super Bowl LX Biggest Bets

The largest reported Super Bowl LX wager went through Caesars on Jan. 25, two weeks before Super Bowl Sunday. The +100 odds bet was for the AFC to win the Super Bowl. 

Six bets between $1 million and $1.1 million were also reported. Three of them were on the Patriots moneyline (from +188 to +200 odds), and the rest were on Patriots +4.5 (-105), Seahawks -3.5 (-125), and Seahawks ML (-230).

Bets of $725,000, $500,000, and $325,000 were also reported from various sportsbooks. The only winner of those was Seahawks -7 (+125), which paid $625,000.
