NFL Week 4: Browns and 49ers rise as Super Bowl odds shift

As the 2026 NFL season progresses through Week 4, several teams are seeing significant shifts in momentum and market value. The Cleveland Browns have emerged as a surprise contender with a 3-1 record, while the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs remain at the top of power rankings and championship futures markets.

In the Super Bowl prediction market, the Los Angeles Rams have reclaimed the top spot with a 12% price following a comeback victory against the Philadelphia Eagles. Conversely, the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals have seen their championship odds decline after recent losses.

Injuries to key players have forced several teams to rely on backup quarterbacks. While some backups, such as Jameis Winston for the Giants and Tyson Bagent for the Bears, have found success, others face challenges. Notable injuries include Lamar Jackson in Baltimore and Caleb Williams in Chicago. The Tennessee Titans and Miami Dolphins currently sit at the bottom of the league rankings, both struggling with 0-4 starts.
