The Cincinnati Bengals<\/a> will look to bounce back from an underwhelming 2024 regular season that saw them miss the playoffs despite having one of the best passing offenses in the league.<\/p>\n

Cincy\u2019s issue was on the defensive side of the ball, where it ranked 27th in defensive EPA per play, as well as 25th in opponent points per game and opponent yards per game.<\/p>\n

However, the Bengals started to right the ship in the latter part of 2024, winning five consecutive games to close out the season.<\/p>\n

Can they carry that momentum into their 2025 campaign? Check out our favorite Bengals NFL futures<\/a> bets below to find out.<\/p>\n

Cincinnati Bengals 2025 futures odds<\/p>\n

Cincinnati may not have done much to shore up its defense, but it may not have to worry too much about that side of the ball if the offense plays like it did in the second half of 2024.<\/p>\n

Below, we have all of the Bengals\u2019 futures odds listed, courtesy of the best Ohio sportsbooks<\/a>, including their win total, Super Bowl odds, AFC championship odds, and odds to make the playoffs.<\/p>\n

Make sure to shop around different sportsbooks for the best odds, as they change throughout the season.<\/p>\n

After sifting through all of the Cincinnati Bengals\u2019 futures bets and their odds, I have picked a few to target ahead of the 2025 season. <\/p>\n

Keep reading below for my breakdown on the Bengals\u2019 over\/under odds and Joe Burrow\u2019s odds to win MVP.<\/p>\n

Over 9.5 wins<\/p>\n

Best odds: <\/a>-115 at bet365 Sportsbook<\/a><\/p>\n

Despite dropping four of their first five and boasting a 4-8 record through 12 games, the Bengals nearly made the playoffs, finishing with a 9-8 record.<\/p>\n

The Bengals rattled off five consecutive wins to finish above .500, averaging just shy of 28 points per game and beating opponents by close to 10 points per game in that stretch.<\/p>\n

For Cincinnati to make the postseason, it must start faster than 4-8. <\/p>\n

Entering the 2025 season, the Bengals have the 14th-hardest schedule (based on their opponents\u2019 2024 winning percentage), which is reasonable.<\/p>\n

Luckily, the Bengals face off against the desolate Cleveland Browns in Week 1<\/a> and host the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2. <\/p>\n

Additionally, Cincinnati has a winnable road game against a Vikings team that will roll out a first-year starter in JJ McCarthy, who could turn out to be a solid NFL quarterback but is still young.<\/p>\n

Cincinnati also has a three-game stretch to close out that season that could propel it to double-digit wins and a playoff berth. <\/p>\n

The Bengals should find wins against Miami (road), Arizona (home), and Cleveland<\/a> (home) over their final three weeks.<\/p>\n

Home games against the Steelers, Jets, Patriots, and Bears should also be winnable.<\/p>\n

The remaining eight games on their schedule will be tough, but they only need to find a few wins there to reach double-digits.<\/p>\n

Joe Burrow to win NFL MVP<\/p>\n

Best odds: +600 at Caesars Sportsbook<\/a><\/p>\n

Throughout his NFL career, Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals have struggled at the beginning of each NFL season.<\/p>\n

In fact, Burrow has a 1-4 record in Week 1 games and a 0-5 record in Week 2 games during his NFL career.<\/p>\n

However, Burrow finished the 2024 season throwing for 325 passing yards and more than three touchdowns per game over his final nine outings.<\/p>\n

Burrow has the offensive weapons, including Ja\u2019Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Mike Gesicki, and Chase Brown, to perform at that level over the course of an entire season.<\/p>\n

Burrow will be in a prime position to secure his first MVP if he and the Bengals get off to a hot start.<\/p>\n
