Seahawks Super Bowl Odds (Can Seattle Build On Surprising Playoff Run?)
By jsummers
The Seahawks shocked the world with an excellent season culminating in a playoff appearance. Geno Smith proved he can run a successful NFL offense and there’s a lot to like about Seattle’s roster heading to next year.
That being said, there are still improvements to be made. The defense struggled on the whole, and the offensive line could use some juice.
With a healthy dose of draft picks thanks to the Russell Wilson heist, Seattle is in a fantastic position to improve on the year.
Let’s see if oddsmakers agree and check out where the Seahawks rank in next year’s Super Bowl odds.
Super Bowl 58 Odds
Seahawks Disrespected By Oddsmakers
Despite the positives surrounding Seattle’s outlook, the Seahawks sit at +7000 to win Super Bowl 58. That’s tied for the 25th-best odds in the NFL with the Washington Commanders, behind teams like the Buccaneers, Panthers, and Patriots.
+7000 gives Seattle the 12th-best odds in the NFC, and I think this represents a value moving forward. Sure, any trip to the playoffs would likely require a Wild Card appearance, but we’ve seen Wild Card teams make the Super Bowl before. Thus, I’m not overly concerned about the Seahawks’ limited chances to win the West.
Seattle has five draft picks in the first three rounds, including two in the top 20, and should be able to fill out a lot of holes in the roster. Overall, the Seahawks have nine picks and we’ve seen them work magic in the later rounds, like finding stud corner Tariq Whoolen in the fifth round last year.
The offense looks stable with D.K. Metcalf, Geno Smith, Kenneth Walker III, and Tyler Lockette. Finding a few complimentary pieces should be a priority before committing the remaining resources to the defense.
On the whole, Seattle has one of the NFC’s most promising outlooks. Barring a disaster in free agency or the draft, +7000 odds feel like the Seahawks’ floor. Keep an eye on their moves, and I wouldn’t argue with grabbing that value now before Seattle makes a splash or utilizes its draft picks.
