The Kansas City Chiefs opened the 2019 season as the second favorite to win Super Bowl LIV for a payout potential of 7-1 or $700 on a $100 bet or $70 on a $10 bet (find current odds here or scroll down). They were favorites to win OVER 10.5 regular season games at -145 and they were favorites to win the AFC West at -170, a decent price considering they are Super Bowl second favorites.

2019 Week 1 - Kansas City Chiefs vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
ABOUT THE CHIEFS (2018: 12-4, TIED FOR FIRST IN AFC WEST): There's plenty of hype for Kansas City's offense with Mahomes back for his second full season as a starter after passing for 5,097 yards and 50 touchdowns a year ago. The Chiefs added running back LeSean McCoy to complement Damien Williams, who broke out last season after Kareem Hunt's release, and Mahomes' two favorite targets are back in dynamic receiver Tyreek Hill and tight end Travis Kelce. The defense got a bit of a facelift with the addition of pass rusher Frank Clark and safety Tyrann Mathieu.
ABOUT THE JAGUARS (2018: 5-11, LAST IN AFC SOUTH): Jacksonville moved on from quarterback Blake Bortles and brought in Nick Foles to try to mitigate the turnovers that derailed them last season, when they coughed it up 29 times. They also added former Chiefs receiver Chris Conley, who along with Marqise Lee and Dede Westbrook could stabilize the passing game needed to complement running back Leonard Fournette. Cornerback Jalen Ramsey, defensive ends Calais Campbell and Yannick Ngakoue, and linebacker Myles Jack anchor a defense that again figures to be one of the league's best.
