2025 NFL Futures Bets: AFC North Over/Under Win Totals Predictions

We continue our series looking at one of the favorites among NFL futures bettors: over/under win totals. Canadian sportsbooks generally offer 1-3 numbers (ie: over/under 10.5 wins) for each team, with odds for them to go over or under each number. Because of all those variables, we’re doing this by division.

Next up, the rough and tumble AFC North. Viewed as arguably the best division in football over the past few years, we believe that this foursome will once again yield three very competitive teams. Will the Ravens and Bengals both dominate? Will the Steelers remain steady with Aaron Rodgers at QB? And just how bad can the Browns really be?

2025 AFC North Over/Under Win Totals - Betting Odds

Baltimore Ravens: Baltimore is one of just four teams with an over/under of 12.5 on the board. Their odds to go over are the second-shortest behind Buffalo as well. Their schedule is no picnic, however. Splits with the Steelers and Bengals are likely, but they should sweep the Browns to go 4-2 in the AFC North. We expect them to split their four games against the stacked NFC North, but they should get three out of four against the AFC East. That makes nine wins. Their other three games come in a row from Weeks 4-6 prior to their Week 7 bye: at KC, vs. HOU, vs. LAR. Two of three there would bring them to 11. We could go for under 11.5 at +100, but a safer approach would be to take them under 12.5.

Best Bet: Baltimore Ravens Under 12.5 Wins (-185)

Cincinnati Bengals: The Bengals spent big on their offense this offseason, so they’ll be hoping to bludgeon teams with sheer offensive output, because that defense still seems suspect. Like the Ravens, we believe they’ll sweep the Browns and split with the rest of their divisional games. They also play the AFC East and the NFC North, and we think five from eight like Baltimore is fair. However, their three additional games are a lot easier than Baltimore’s: vs. JAX, @ DEN, vs. ARI. They could get all three of those, but we’ll play it safe and say they get two (Mile High is tough), bringing them to 11. And that’s on the very conservative side of things.

Best Bet: Cincinnati Bengals Over 10.5 Wins (+160)

Pittsburgh Steelers: Without a doubt the biggest enigma in this division, the Steelers win total over/under is all about one question: will they keep up their streak of 20+ seasons without a losing record? We think they’ll go 3-3 in the division, as they tend to play down to bad teams like the Browns. We think they can beat the Packers and the Bears out of the NFC North as well. Another 2-2 record against the AFC East seems realistic. That’s seven wins. If they can get two out of three against the Seahawks, Chargers, and Colts they will get to that magic number 9. They should beat Indy and lose to L.A., so it’s that Week 2 matchup at home against Seattle that decides this. We say they get the win at Acrisure.

Best Bet: Pittsburgh Steelers Over 8.5 Wins (-110)

Cleveland Browns: No team has shorter odds to win fewer games than the Cleveland Browns in 2025. I guess online sportsbooks were not convinced with their four-QB strategy. We’re taking Cleveland to win just one divisional game this year, which puts them in deep doo-doo if they’re gonna hit the over on that 4.5 win total. They play three straight NFC North teams from Weeks 3-5, and they’ll lose all three. They have a shot against the Bears later in the season, however. There’s a chance they could get one, maybe even two wins against the AFC East as well. Their three additional games are @ LV, vs. SF, and vs. TEN, all in a row in November and December. They could beat the Titans, but honestly, we’re really reaching to get to five wins here. The under feels inevitable.

Best Bet: Cleveland Browns Under 4.5 Wins (+130)
