Unsurprisingly, the Kansas City Chiefs are on top of the odds boards heading into the 2025 NFL post-season. After winning the last two Super Bowls, the Chiefs want to make NFL history by becoming the first team to three-peat.
The Chiefs are 15-1 heading into week 18 but will likely drop this game to rest their starters. Since the team has already clinched a first-round bye and home-field advantage through the playoffs, it would rather lose a game than risk injury.
Below, we will discuss how you can bet on the Kansas City Chiefs and other NFL teams online and what the sportsbook odds suggest leading into the wild-card weekend.
NFL Game Lines For Week 18
NFL game lines for this weekend might look a little wacky, as some teams are expected to rest their starters, and others are not. Below, you will see that the Broncos are favored to beat the Chiefs by 10 points. That’s because the Chiefs have already announced that Carson Wentz will start this weekend.
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes suffered an injury a few weeks back but hasn’t missed a game yet this season. Starting Wentz is likely a strategic move to get Mahomes back to 100% before their first scheduled 2025 playoff appearance.
Kansas City Chiefs vs. Denver Broncos (Week 18)*
- Spread: +10.0 (-110), -10.0 (-110)
- Win: +390, -550

2025 NFL Super Bowl Odds
With history at stake and the Chiefs finding a way to overcome adversity on the field, legal Super Bowl betting sites currently favor the Chiefs to bring home the Lombardi. Fans and critics alike say the team is getting hot at the right time, right before the postseason.
However, if the Chiefs make a deep postseason run, they will likely have to beat the Bills, which gave the team their sole loss up to this point. The Bills have always played the Chiefs close but have typically lost to the team in the playoffs. Josh Allen and the Bills will seek revenge if the two teams meet again in the AFC Championship.
