Rams, Chargers Top 2026 NFL Betting Favorites

The Rams have significantly upgraded their defense by acquiring reigning Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett and two-time All-Pro cornerback Trent McDuffie, while also bringing back franchise sack leader Aaron Donald. This addresses their biggest weakness from 2025 when they allowed the 16th-most yards per game. The Rams return their entire offensive unit that led the NFL in scoring and total offense last season, giving them arguably one of the best rosters in recent NFL history.

Meanwhile, the Chargers won 11 games in 2025 despite missing two of the best offensive tackles for most of the season. With both Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt expected back in 2026, Los Angeles has what could be the best tackle duo in football, especially with new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel reshaping the offense around Justin Herbert. Their +1700 odds to win the Super Bowl represent significant value for a team that already won 11 games last season. rocore.sbs
