Who the engine currently rates highest in each conference. Ordered by power rating, which is the same number every prediction on this site is built from.
Results from the same dataset that drives our ratings โ 27 championship games, not a hand-typed list. Season shown is the campaign the game concluded, so the 2025 season's final was played in 2026.
The 2026 regular season runs to January, then fourteen clubs reach the playoffs โ seven from each conference, with the top seed in each getting a first-round bye. Four rounds later, the conference champions meet at SoFi Stadium.
We publish a prediction for every regular-season game, months before bookmakers price most of them, and grade each one in public afterwards. Once the season is under way and this page can show real simulated title odds rather than a rating order, it will.
