Kansas City and Philadelphia meet in Super Bowl for the second time in three seasons on Sunday, and it is reasonable to believe that these teams can meet a few more times on the game’s biggest stage in the coming years.
But before you pencil in another Chiefs-Eagles Clash for 2026, let’s look at three other teams that can win everything next February.
Baltimore Ravens
A third Lombardi in Baltimore’s trophy cases is too long dilapidated.
Ravens has routinely played championship holiday football in the last regular seasons just to be undone with expensive turnover and uncharacteristic decay in the playoffs.
It is safe to assume that Baltimore will return to the 2025 season, as there are not many weak links in a Ravens list that should keep all their league leaders from nine pro-bowlers from a year ago.
All-Pro Quarterback Lamar Jackson and 1,900 farm Rusher Derrick Henry will again be sparked Baltimore’s explosive crime, which last year became the first team ever to match 4,000 passed farms and 3,000 rushing farms during one season.
Raven’s defense is better positioned for a solid campaign after enduring some growing pain during the first year’s defensive coordinator Zach Orr. Baltimore boasted the league’s best point defense during the last eight weeks of the regular season and should remain strong throughout 2025.
Ravens have enough talent on both sides of the ball to hit someone, but can they finally avoid beating themselves when it means the most?
Detroit Lions

After both Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn accepted head coaching positions elsewhere, Lions will try to build on last year’s 15-victory’s campaign with a new offensive coordinator in John Morton and a new defensive coordinator in Kelvin Sheppard.
Both promoters inherit a unit that should welcome their top weapons back.
Morton will work with Quarterbacken Jared Goff and All-Pro recipient Amon-Ra St. Brown to run a crime that led the NFL with a franchise of 564 points last year. Sheppard should take advantage of the return of Star Lineman Aidan Hutchinson (broken leg), and he will take over a defense that ended seventh in points permitted per match despite its rash of injuries.
Detroit’s deserted 2025 will largely be largely on Sheppard’s squad. It is fair to chalk some of the Lions struggle last season for injuries, but if their core players remain healthy, there is little apology for Detroit’s defense to lose a game where Lion’s crime sets up 30-plus points.
Making the playoffs should not be a problem, but just like the ravens, Lions must overcome their skill to digest in January. If Detroit avoids committing five turnover or blowing a 17-point lead in a playoffs, Lions can finally claim their first Super Bowl title.
Washington Commanders

However, I cannot blame them.
With a sensational young Quarterback in Jayden Daniels, an established coach in Dan Quinn and a competent owner in Josh Harris, the commanders seem to be a potential problem in NFC for many years to come.
Daniels will enter his second season with the help of stability in key positions within the crime, as Pro Bowl receiver Terry McLaurin and drives Back Brian Robinson Jr. Daniel’s two more familiar goals in the passing game.
Washington’s defensive line is also in good shape, as Jonathan Allen, Daron Payne and Dorance Armstrong will all return next season.
Keeping Linebacker Bobby Wagner and the safety Jeremy Chinn can be a challenge, but the commanders have enough money to connect all holes with a top -free agent. Spotrac projects Washington to have just over $ 80 million in CAP space in 2025, the third most in the league.
The commanders went from last place in 2023 to a game that was shy for the Super Bowl 2024, and a splashing seasonal signing could help deliver a title for this resurrected franchise 2025.
