Let the odds tell it, and the Rams and Ravens are expected to be this season's juggernauts. Los Angeles certainly makes sense, but why might this be the case for Baltimore? Well, presumably, the hope is that a healthy Lamar Jackson returns to form. Check out which teams are expected to win the most games, as well as which squads are expected to remain undefeated the longest (DraftKings Sportsbook, as of Aug. 3).

MOST WINS Rams: +590 (bet $10 to win $69 total)Ravens: +790 (bet $10 to win $89 total)Bills: +1125 (bet $10 to win $122.50 total)Seahawks: +1150 (bet $10 to win $125 total)Lions: +1425 (bet $10 to win $152.50 total)Eagles: +1450 (bet $10 to win $155 total)Patriots: +1550 (bet $10 to win $165 total)Chiefs: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total)Bengals: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total)Packers: +1700 (bet $10 to win $180 total) What to know: Last season's leaders in wins were the Broncos, Seahawks and Patriots (14), followed by the Jaguars (13). However, Seattle is the only one of that group near the top of the oddsboard coming into this season, and still, it only has the fourth-shortest odds. Topping the board are the Rams (who are also the Super Bowl favorites), along with the Ravens (who are favored to win the AFC). The Rams won 12 games last season, finishing second in the NFC West behind the Seahawks. The Ravens, though, only won eight games and missed the playoffs in the process. Buffalo slots in at third on the board, and it also won 12 games last year. LAST UNDEFEATED TEAM Chiefs: +700 (bet $10 to win $80 total)Rams: +750 (bet $10 to win $85 total)Ravens: +750 (bet $10 to win $85 total)Seahawks: +900 (bet $10 to win $100 total)Lions: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)Packers: +1200 (bet $10 to win $130 total)49ers: +1300 (bet $10 to win $140 total)Texans: +1400 (bet $10 to win $150 total)Bears: +1400 (bet $10 to win $150 total)Eagles: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total) What to know: The Chiefs are +1600 to win the most games (eighth on the board), but are favored to be the last undefeated team. Why? Well, this one has a lot to do with scheduling, but the Chiefs' schedule isn't a walk in the park to begin the season. They host the Broncos in Week 1 and Indy in Week 2, before games against the Dolphins and Raiders in Weeks 3 and 4. Then there is a bye in Week 5, followed by a home date with the Chargers, at Seattle and at Denver in Weeks 6, 7 and 8. As for the Rams and Ravens, they are tied at second on the board. L.A. opens the year with the 49ers, Giants, Broncos, Eagles and Bills, while the Ravens have a seemingly easier road, opening with the Colts, Saints, Cowboys, Titans, Falcons and Browns.

Winning isn't for everyone a few teams know that well enough. Let's check out the odds for which teams are expected to be friends with futility heading into 2026 (DraftKings Sportsbook, as of Aug. 3).

No: -2000Yes: +900 What to know: The last time a team lost every regular season game was the Cleveland Browns, back in 2017. Ironically, the Browns went 4-0 in the preseason that year. They suffered four 3-point losses, one 4-point loss and two overtime losses in the regular season. FEWEST WINS Cardinals: +250 (bet $10 to win $35 total)Dolphins: +350 (bet $10 to win $45 total)Jets: +850 (bet $10 to win $95 total)Raiders: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)Browns: +1050 (bet $10 to win $115 total)Falcons: +1500 (bet $10 to win $160 total)Titans: +1700 (bet $10 to win $180 total)Panthers: +2300 (bet $10 to win $240 total) What to know: Four teams Arizona, Tennessee, Las Vegas and the New York Jets won a league-low three games last season. It was the second season in a row that the Titans were one of the teams with the fewest wins in the league, and they have six total victories across 2024 and 2025. As for the Cardinals, they top the board as they go through a rebuilding phase, having moved on from Kyler Murray at quarterback. Jacoby Brissett will start for Arizona. The same can be said for Miami, which moved on from Tua Tagovailoa and signed new starter Malik Willis to a three-year deal. LAST WINLESS TEAM Cardinals: +225 (bet $10 to win $32.50 total)Dolphins: +400 (bet $10 to win $50 total)Jets: +900 (bet $10 to win $100 total)Raiders: +900 (bet $10 to win $100 total)Browns: +1100 (bet $10 to win $120 total)Falcons: +1200 (bet $10 to win $130 total)Commanders: +1400 (bet $10 to win $150 total)Titans: +1500 (bet $10 to win $160 total) What to know: Arizona is atop this board for a reason. It has the third-hardest schedule based on opponents' 2025 win percentage, and saying it out loud makes it sound even worse. Within the first 13 weeks (they have their bye in Week 14), the Cardinals will play the Seahawks and Rams twice, alongside the Chargers, 49ers, Lions, Broncos, Cowboys, Chiefs, Commanders and Eagles. Arizona will need to win its Week 4 game at the Giants. As for the Dolphins, things are even worse. They have the second-hardest schedule on paper. In Week 2-5, they get the 49ers, Chiefs, Vikings and Bengals. After the bye in Week 6, Miami still has games left against the Patriots (twice), Bills (twice), Lions, Broncos, Bears, Packers and Chargers. Miami is essentially in a must-win scenario in Week 1 at Las Vegas.

Patriots QB Drake Maye Already Showing Growth in Confidence, Leadership at Training Camp originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.In just his second NFL season, Patriots quarterback Drake Maye led the team to the Super Bowl. While the Pats fell short against the Seahawks, Maye quickly established himself as the face of the franchise.Now entering Year 3 in New England, Maye is looking to not only grow as one of the top players at his position, but also as a reliable leader. With offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels by his side and head coach Mike Vrabel in his ear, Maye is feeling more confident each day."The biggest thing I kept on saying last year was like, 'I feel like I need to do something in this league,'" Maye said (via The Boston Globe). "[The coaching staff] kept on pushing me and said, 'You got to expect that to happen.'"So, I definitely got some more comfort in that area of pushing the guys. I think I need to do it more celebrating, being louder and showing my personality more."Maye has been hot at training camp, connecting with multiple receivers, including A.J. Brown. The 23-year-old has become a more vocal leader early in training camp, and his teammates have noticed the change."[I] put a year on tape where I feel like I did some good things and felt like I knew what I was doing most of the time,"Maye said (via WJAR)."Trying to get to the level of coach McDaniels and some of the coaches is what we're all trying to do. How they see it, how they want us to execute it."From there, we can direct guys, and I can push guys to get to that level, and that's the goal."Drake Maye stats for 2025 seasonMaye produced the following stats last year as the Patriots returned to the playoffs for the first time since 2021:4,394 passing yards31 passing touchdowns8 interceptions72.0 completion percentage8.9 yards per attempt113.5 passer rating450 rushing yards4 rushing touchdownsMore PatriotsLatest PatriotsnewsTom Brady's Patriots legacy: How legendary QB set new standardComplete history of Patriots championships

Aug. 3This week will mark the final week of summer workouts for the Illinois women's basketball team.It's been a successful summer for 's Illini. Even if it's come in fits and starts at times with injuries and absences especially early on in the summer limiting what Illinois could accomplish.But the Illini have at least had a chance to see how certain lineups might fit together. It's given Green, the fifth-year coach at Illinois, a greater sense of what her rotation might look like when the games actually count in three months when early November arrives.There was enough new about this Illini roster to make the summer important. Illinois didn't just add two freshmen and a pair of transfers in the offseason. Freshman forwards and along with junior-college transfer , a junior guard, and LSU transfer , a sophomore guard were among the newcomers.But Illinois also had to work key pieces, like redshirt freshman forward and redshirt junior guard , back from injury. Alves is expected to play an important role in the Illini's frontcourt rotation and could be a potential starting option during the upcoming 2026-27 season. This after the 6-foot-3 forward sat out all of last season with a torn ACL, and Dolan has also found herself on the other side of a major injury. The 5-11 guard had surgery to address a torn meniscus in her right knee on Feb. 23.A full month of 5-on-5 workouts has afforded Green a baseline of what her newest team might look like. Illinois will wrap up its offseason program this week before the players have a few weeks off ahead of the start of the fall semester.Then, when the Illini return, it will be about a month before preseason practices get underway in late September."It's been a lot of fun, right?" Green said. "It's been fun to, you know, have a lot of depth. I just think right away at the 5 spot. Like to see () and Manuella, you know, really competing down there. Every day growing. ... Seeing that piece, you know, it's a little bit different now with () gone (for training camp with the Canadian women's national team). Seeing those different combinations, it's been great. You know, it's been great, just to have options and to have the depth that we have. Now, knock on wood, we have to continue to remain healthy. So, trying to take it step-by-step in that and making sure we're doing everything we can do to keep these guys healthy."

PHILADELPHIA The intensity increased Monday as the Philadelphia Eagles returned to the Jefferson Health Training Complex for Day 4 of training camp and their first padded practice of the summer. The session provides the coaching staff with its clearest evaluation yet of the offensive and defensive lines, running backs, linebackers and players competing for roster spots, as physicality becomes a larger part of every drill. Follow along throughout the morning for photos, videos, highlights and other sights and sounds from Philadelphias first practice in pads.Nolan Smith getting some work in pic.twitter.com/73a2pTnarX PHLY Eagles (@PHLY_Eagles) August 3, 2026This article originally appeared on Eagles Wire: Sights and sounds from Eagles first padded training camp practice

(Photo by Adekunle Ajayi/NurPhoto via Getty Images)NurPhoto via Getty ImagesThe 2026 FIFA World Cup wrapped last month, and with it went 39 days of the kind of moments that make a tournament unforgettable: a teenage phenom stealing highlight reels with his flair, a scrappy underdog nation refusing to go home, a 40-year-old goalkeeper turning in the performance of his career, a nine-figure transfer rumor before the confetti had even settled. For four weeks, the entire sports world organized itself around this single competition. But the appetite for those storylines didn't end when the final whistle blew, and it doesn't need a men's tournament to be satisfied. Right now, in stadiums and arenas across the world, women's sports are producing the exact same arcs: breakout stars, Cinderella runs, veteran redemption stories, record-breaking numbers, and transfer fees rewriting what the sport is worth. They're just not getting the same attention. Here are five World Cup moments and the women's sports stories playing out in real time that deserve to be next on your watchlist.PERTH, AUSTRALIA - AUGUST 03: Morocco players celebrate advancing to the knock out stage after the 1-0 victory in the FIFA Women's World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023 Group H match between Morocco and Colombia at Perth Rectangular Stadium on August 03, 2023 in Perth, Australia. (Photo by Alex Grimm - FIFA/FIFA via Getty Images)FIFA via Getty ImagesLiked Lamine Yamal's flair? Watch Morocco's Atlas Lionesses at WAFCON.Yamal spent this World Cup as one of the most-watched players on the planet, a teenager with more than 50 million Instagram followers turning every touch into a moment. Morocco is hosting the Women's Africa Cup of Nations for a third straight edition, running through August 16 across Rabat and Casablanca, and the Atlas Lionesses have opened their campaign in commanding form. They beat Kenya 4-0 to open the tournament, then beat Algeria 1-0 to move to two wins from two matches, sitting atop Group A with five goals scored and none conceded. The breakout to watch is Barcelona Femen prospect Kautar Azraf, flagged by CAF as one of the country's brightest young talents ahead of her first senior call-up, the same "unproven teenager announces herself on the biggest stage" arc that made Yamal a global name this summer.Liked Cape Verde's underdog run? Watch WAFCON's debutant nations.Cape Verde's men's team was one of the World Cup's most beloved stories, a nation of fewer than 600,000 people holding its own against the sport's giants. Their women's game has its own version unfolding right now. Cape Verde and Malawi are both playing in their first-ever Women's AFCON this year, part of a tournament that expanded from 12 teams to 16 for this edition and now doubles as continental qualifying for the 2027 Women's World Cup in Brazil. That last detail matters. Every match these debutant nations play carries real stakes beyond pride, which is exactly what made Cape Verde's men's run, and goalkeeper Vozinha's stunning form behind it, so gripping to watch this summer.PERTH, AUSTRALIA - AUGUST 03: Ghizlane Chebbak of Morocco kisses the ball before taking a penalty during the FIFA Women's World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023 Group H match between Morocco and Colombia at Perth Rectangular Stadium on August 03, 2023 in Perth, Australia. (Photo by Paul Kane/Getty Images)Getty ImagesLiked Vozinha's veteran heroics at 40? Watch Ghizlane Chebbak chase redemption.Vozinha spent most of his career out of the professional game entirely before resurfacing at 40 to deliver one of the World Cup's defining individual performances. Morocco's women have their own veteran carrying a similar weight. Captain Ghizlane Chebbak leads an experienced Moroccan squad that reached the final of the last two WAFCON editions, and this tournament is framed around finally closing that gap. The team is chasing its first continental title after losing the 2022 final to South Africa and the 2024 final to Nigeria, now playing for it on home soil in front of their own crowd. That's a career-defining tournament in the making, built on the same experience-over-flash story that made Vozinha's run so compelling.Liked Mbappe's Golden Boot chase? Watch A'ja Wilson's scoring tear.Mbappe didn't just lead the World Cup in goals, he ran away with the race and became the tournament's all-time leading scorer in the process. The WNBA has a comparable gap opening up right now. A'ja Wilson is averaging 26.12 points per game this season, well clear of the field, with the next closest qualified scorers, Kelsey Mitchell and Breanna Stewart, sitting several points behind her per night. It's happening against the backdrop of a league having its biggest year yet, with the 2026 All-Star Game outdrawing the NBA's for the first time in history. A scoring race this decisive, in a league drawing this much attention, is exactly the kind of statistical dominance that made Mbappe's Golden Boot chase must-watch television.ARLINGTON, TEXAS - JULY 16: A'ja Wilson #22 of the Las Vegas Aces reacts to a score during the second half of a game against the Dallas Wings at College Park Center on July 16, 2025 in Arlington, Texas.

Watch the record money moving through womens soccer.Ivory Coasts Diomande became a transfer target the moment the World Cup ended, with reported interest from Paris Saint-Germain fueling weeks of speculation. Women's soccer had its own landmark transfer this year, and it's part of a much bigger financial story. Sam Coffey's move to the reigning NWSL champions set a new world-record transfer fee for the league at $1.5 million, continuing a run in which the global women's transfer record was broken four separate times in 2025 alone. Money moving at that pace, and breaking records that quickly, is its own kind of transfer-window drama, the same appeal that made every Diomande rumor worth following this summer.None of this is a lesser version of what played out at the World Cup. It's the same sport, the same stakes, the same human stories, running in parallel with a fraction of the coverage. A teenager forcing her way into a senior squad, a nation getting its first shot on the continental stage, a captain chasing the title that's eluded her twice, a scoring record with no real competition, a transfer fee that would have been unthinkable a few years ago: these are not smaller stories. They're the same ones, happening right now, mostly without the audience they've earned. The World Cup will come back around in four years. Women's sports are building these moments this month, this week, tonight, and the audience paying attention early is the one that gets to say they saw it coming.This article was originally published on Forbes.com
