Chicago improved to 5-2 with a 30-24 victory over New England on Thursday night, extending its winning streak to two games. Seattle (3-3) has lost two straight, including a 17-14 overtime defeat at Denver. The Seahawks host undefeated Kansas City in Week 7 before facing the Bears, who get some extra prep time after the TNF appearance.
Notable NFL Week 8 Line Moves
The early Week 8 prices establish a baseline ahead of the remaining Week 7 games, with several matchups positioned for potentially meaningful shifts as the schedule unfolds.
Kansas City enters Week 7 undefeated but holds only a narrow advantage over Denver in their upcoming AFC West showdown. Minnesota is also unbeaten, yet Detroit is favored in their NFC North matchup. Both markets will be worth monitoring after the Chiefs face Seattle and the Lions host Green Bay.
Elsewhere, Atlanta–Tampa Bay and Las Vegas–New York are priced almost evenly, leaving little separation between the teams. Baltimore–Buffalo is another market to watch, particularly as the Ravens navigate Lamar Jackson’s injury situation.
Week 7 results and updated injury reports could reshape these early prices. We’ll track the most significant changes as the Week 8 board develops.
NFL Futures Market Outlook
San Francisco continues to lead Kalshi’s Super Bowl LXI winner market at 16%, followed by Kansas City (11%) and Buffalo (10%). The 49ers and Chiefs have each gained one percentage point in Kalshi’s displayed change column, while the Bills have slipped two points.
Chicago is the standout mover among the leading contenders, climbing four points to 7% following its strong start to the season. Baltimore, Jacksonville, and the Rams are also priced at 7%, with Seattle next at 6%. The Rams have fallen three points, while Baltimore has declined two.
The NFL MVP market remains a two-man race at the top, with Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen narrowly leading San Francisco’s Brock Purdy, 27% to 26%. Patrick Mahomes is a distant third at 8%, followed by Trevor Lawrence (6%), Joe Burrow (5%), and Jordan Love (5%).
Allen has gained two points, Mahomes and Burrow have declined three, and Love has gained two points. Both futures markets remain sensitive to weekly results. We’ll see some shifts based on what happens in Week 7.
