The Favorites Podcast, hosted by the Action Network, doesn't believe in an offseason from talking about the NFL.

The podcast — brought to you by bet365 and hosted by Chad Millman and Simon Hunter — discussed betting on NFL futures and how the hosts' power rankings have shaped up after free agency. The gentlemen have a pick for the Super Bowl that no one is talking about.

Can the Bengals Win the Super Bowl?

Millman believes the Bengals are flying under the radar heading into the 2024 season.

"Not everyone is talking about the Bengals as much as we are," Millman said. "Everyone is talking about the Lions, everyone is talking about the Bills, everyone is talking about the Chiefs, everyone is talking about the Niners. No one is talking about the Bengals."

Joe Burrow suffered an injury in Week 11 and the Bengals ended up making a playoff push without him. Millman believes people are looking at the Bengals as if Burrow did not miss the second half of the season.

"This doesn't make sense. The Bengals are being graded as if Joe Burrow played last season and was just terrible," Millman said. "The Bengals aren't being graded as if Joe Burrow was hurt from literally the time the season started and never got healthy."

The Bengals are currently 18-1 to win the Super Bowl next season and +175 to win the AFC North at bet365.

"The defense has gotten better and the coaching staff returns," Millman said. "So to me there is just tremendous value in the Bengals right now."

Thoughts from bet365 starting at 38:00.
