The NFL schedule release is almost here, and football fans are already buzzing about which teams could meet in Super Bowl 61. With the regular season matchups set but dates still to be announced, we're looking at five potential previews of the big game that could light up the 2026 season.

The defending champion Seattle Seahawks are hungry to repeat, while the New England Patriots aim for a comeback. According to BetMGM, the Rams, Seahawks, Ravens, and Bills currently hold the top four odds to win it all. But with the Super Bowl set for Los Angeles, the road there is full of twists.

Key offseason moves have reshaped the landscape. Tytus Howard heads to Cleveland, Trent McDuffie joins the Rams, David Montgomery lands in Houston, and DJ Moore arrives in Buffalo. That last trade is especially intriguing—Moore could be the No. 1 receiver the Bills have needed since Stefon Diggs left. Josh Allen looked crushed after last season's playoff exit, especially with Mahomes, Jackson, and Burrow all sidelined. Now, new head coach Joe Brady faces huge pressure to push Buffalo further than his predecessor.

These five matchups could give us a sneak peek at who's destined for Super Bowl glory. Stay tuned as the schedule drops—and get ready for some epic football.
