There are numerous NFL futures markets available, including team futures like best record odds and worst record odds. Here are some predictions and picks for the team expected to finish with the worst record in the 2023 NFL regular season, based on the odds provided by top sports betting sites.

Despite their victory over the Houston Texans in Week 8, the Carolina Panthers are still considered the frontrunners to have the worst record in the 2023 season.

The Arizona Cardinals were considered strong favorites before the preseason, but their ranking has dropped since Kyler Murray returned as he works to restore the team’s reputation.

In the Bill Belichick era, the New England Patriots are reaching new lows and are now considered a serious contender for the worst record in the league.

When you need a break from checking out our Super Bowl odds and predictions, here are the latest NFL odds for the worst record (some books have dead heat rules).

NFL worst record odds analysis

This betting market is exclusively offered on bet365 among our top sportsbooks after Week 13. The Panthers became the favorites to win following the Cardinals’ second victory of 2023 and have maintained their lead ever since.

The Giants quietly entered the race at +250 before Week 11, but after two consecutive wins, their odds have surged. The Patriots, coming off disappointing defeats to both the Giants and the Los Angeles Chargers, have now become the obvious second favorite.

NFL worst record odds 2023: Favorite

Panthers (-200 via bet365)

After securing a Week 8 win against the Texans, the Panthers managed to avoid a winless season. However, things took a turn for the worse as the team faced their 10th loss in Week 12, resulting in head coach Frank Reich losing his job.

Bryce Young, the inexperienced quarterback, has struggled and there are rumors circulating that the Panthers may have chosen C.J. Stroud over him due to owner David Tepper’s influence.

NFL worst record odds 2023: Contender

Patriots (+200 via bet365)

The Patriots have made an unfortunate mark in history by becoming the first team in the Super Bowl era to allow 10 or fewer points in three consecutive games and still lose each one. This streak continued after they were shut out by the Chargers with a score of 6-0 in Week 13.

Given their offensive struggles, Bill Belichick & his team will likely face a tough challenge against the Steelers, Chiefs, Broncos, and Bills before taking on the Jets in Week 18.

NFL worst record odds 2023: Long shot

Commanders (+8000 via bet365)

The Commanders had been displaying resilience in 2023, with Sam Howell providing promise at quarterback. However, head coach Ron Rivera is facing increasing pressure after three disappointing losses. Washington failed to perform as expected against the Giants and then gave up 45 points in consecutive weeks to the Cowboys and Dolphins.

If Washington begins to deteriorate towards the end of the year and starts giving up, these high odds could end up being a steal by the time Week 18 rolls around.
