In February, the San Francisco 49ers lost a heartbreaker to the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 59. Both teams are the top odds-getters in the current NFL futures, setting up the potential for a rematch at SB LIX.
2023-24 NFC West Standings
- San Francisco 49ers 12-5
- Los Angeles Rams 10-7
- Seattle Seahawks 9-8
- Arizona Cardinals 4-13
The 49ers have won the NFC West for the past two seasons, and NFL sportsbooks are confident they’ll do so again in 2024-25.
2024-25 NFC West Futures
- San Francisco 49ers -200
- Los Angeles Rams +325
- Seattle Seahawks +700
- Arizona Cardinals +1100
The Niners will most likely retain their NFC West crown for the third time in a row, but there is plenty of intrigue brewing in the remainder of the division.
San Francisco 49ers
The 49ers have the personnel and coaching staff in place for another Super Bowl run. Left tackle Trent Williams is still holding out, but GM John Lynch has expressed optimism regarding his return.
Regular Season Wins – San Francisco 49ers
- Over 11.5 Wins +120
- Under 11.5 Wins -160
Is this a do-or-die season for the 49ers? QB Brock Purdy is now in the third year of his rookie contract, and he will likely negotiate a massive increase in pay starting in 2025.
If San Francisco makes Purdy one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL, something will have to give elsewhere on the roster.
Los Angeles Rams
Los Angeles snuck into the playoffs last year as a wild card and has somehow remained off everyone’s radar. The over/under win total for LA implies a nine-win effort, placing them two games back of where the 49ers are projected to finish.
Regular Season Wins – Los Angeles Rams
- Over 8.5 Wins -150
- Under 8.5 Wins +115
The two-game separation is likely to come via a sweep at the hands of San Francisco. If the Rams can split the series, things may get interesting over the final few weeks. We’re betting on the LA Rams to make it to the playoffs as a wild card once again.
Seattle Seahawks
The Seahawks narrowly missed the playoffs in 2023-24. Geno Smith will lead a talented offense for the third year in a row in what could be his final chance to prove he’s their franchise QB.
Regular Season Wins – Seattle Seahawks
- Over 7.5 Wins -160
- Under 7.5 Wins +120
Current NFL team props predict they’ll easily surpass 7.5 wins, and we agree.
Arizona Cardinals
The Cardinals have been in the NFC West cellar for the past two seasons, capturing a total of eight wins during that span. The NFL over/under says Zona won’t win seven games this year, but there is reason for optimism.
Regular Season Wins – Arizona Cardinals
- Over 7.5 Wins +115
- Under 7.5 Wins -150
Arizona selected wide receiver Marvin Harrison, Jr. fourth overall in 2024, and it shouldn’t take long for Kyler Murray to develop a potent connection with him. We’re excited to see this young duo perform but have tempered our expectations for their ability to eclipse seven wins.
