Momentum isn’t something the Los Angeles Rams have had much of since last season, trending in the wrong direction for most of the last year after making the Super Bowl two seasons ago. They regressed in 2019 and endured a number of key losses this offseason, leading to their Super Bowl odds plummeting compared to last summer.
That hasn’t stopped bettors from putting some money down on the Rams, though. There’s been a large uptick in wagers on Los Angeles lately, making them the most popular Super Bowl bet in the last week.
That comes from Oddschecker, which collects data from the largest sportsbooks, including BetMGM, FanDuel and DraftKings. According to their numbers, 32% of all bets placed on the Super Bowl LV winner in the last week have been on the Rams, which is the most of any team in the league.
At BetMGM, the Rams are currently 30/1 to win the Super Bowl next season, which is tied for 14th in the NFL. They’re right there with the Bills and Titans, and slightly behind the Vikings and Colts.
After the Rams in wager popularity is New England, which has received 26% of the bets to win the Super Bowl in the last week. The Eagles are third at 11%.
