How Many Undefeated NFL Teams Will There Be in 2021?
The 2021 NFL season is just around the corner, and there are a lot of teams with a lot of potential. So the question is, how many undefeated NFL teams will there be in 2021?
Introduction
In the National Football League (NFL), a team that has won all of its regular season games is said to have gone undefeated.
The last team to do so was the 1972 Miami Dolphins, who won all 14 of their games en route to a perfect 17-0 record.
Since then, there have been a number of teams who have come close to going undefeated, but ultimately fell short.
The most recent team to do so was the 2015 Carolina Panthers, who finished the regular season with a 15-1 record.
So, how many undefeated NFL teams will there be in 2021?
As of right now, there are no clear-cut favorites to go undefeated in 2021.
The closest thing we have to a favorite is the defending Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are currently +600 (bet $100 to win $600) to go undefeated in 2021.
However, with reigning MVP Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs looming large in the AFC, it’s hard to imagine any team going undefeated this season.
In fact, oddsmakers currently have the Chiefs as the +350 favorite (bet $100 to win $350) to go 16-0 in 2021.
The 2020 Season
Super Bowl 55 will be played on February 7, 2021, at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida.

At this point in the 2020 NFL season, there are no undefeated teams. The Pittsburgh Steelers have the best record at 11-1, followed by theNew Orleans Saints at 10-2.
The last time an NFL team went undefeated was in 1972, when the Miami Dolphins finished the regular season 17-0 and went on to win Super Bowl VII.
The 2021 Season
The 2021 NFL season is set to begin on September 9th. As of right now, there are no undefeated teams in the league. However, that could all change come September.
There are a few teams that have a good chance at going undefeated this season. The Kansas City Chiefs and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are two of those teams. Both teams have Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks and star-studded rosters. The San Francisco 49ers are also a team to watch out for. They made it to the Super Bowl last year and they have one of the best defenses in the league.
Other teams that could potentially go undefeated are the Baltimore Ravens, the New Orleans Saints, and the Seattle Seahawks. All three of these teams have strong rosters and talented quarterbacks.
