2017 NFC West Division Predictions and Odds to Win

1. Seattle Seahawks(-285 odds to win NFC West at Bovada) – The Seattle Seahawks have been one of the best franchises in the NFL for awhile now and are second only to the New England Patriots in success the last 5 years. The Seahawks have won double digits the last 5 seasons including another solid 10-6 campaign last year. Seattle boasts one of the NFL’s most balanced rosters as the offense finished 12th in total offense and the defense finished 5th in total defense last season. Seattle appears to have another stout team in 2017 as the offense has plenty of firepower and one of the game’s best quarterbacks in Russell Wilson while the defense once again promised to be one of the league’s most feared units. Seattle had another great draft in our opinion as they had 6 picks in rounds 2 and 3 after not having a pick in the 1st round. Seattle used 4 of those 6 picks on defensive players headlined by defensive lineman Malik McDowell who can step right in and give Seattle quality snaps on the defensive front from the get go.

2. Arizona Cardinals(+315 odds to win NFC West at Bovada) – The Arizona Cardinals had a subpar 7-9 season last year after having big expectations after reaching the NFC Championship Game the year prior. Head coach Bruce Arians thinks he has the roster to bounce back and win double digits again this season and it’s hard for us to disagree. Arizona finished 9th in total offense last season but found a stud at running back in David Johnson who is one of the NFL’s biggest game breakers. Johnson rushed for 1239 yards and 16 touchdowns in addition to catching 80 balls for 879 receiving yards and 4 touchdowns. Johnson does it all and should be the reason why Arizona’s offense will put up points with the best of them this season despite an aging quarterback in Carson Palmer and top wide out in Larry Fitgerald. The Cardinals also possess a strong defense that rated 2nd in total defense last season and should be amongst the NFL’s top units again in 2017.

3. Los Angeles Rams(+2500 odds to win NFC West at Bovada) – The Rams have been one of the most disappointing teams in the NFL for a long time now and are coming off of another bad 4-12 season last year. The Rams thankfully smartened up and fired coach Jeff Fisher who was annually one of the biggest hacks and most overrated coaches in the NFL. He sucked. Period. The Rams hired the NFL’s youngest head coach in Sean McVay who is only 31 years old but it’s hard to fathom him being any worse than Fisher. The good news for Rams fans is they have arguably the best defensive player in the game in defensive tackle Aaron Donald. The guy is a flat out stud and gets easily overlooked amongst the NFL’s best defensive players because he plays on such a bad team. However, new defensive coordinator Wade Phillips will get the absolute maximum out of Donald’s abilities and it won’t surprise us at all if he makes a serious run at NFL Defensive Player of the Year this season. The bad news for Rams fans is the team’s 32nd ranked offense. That unit still has a ton of work to do. The Rams are still a work in progress but they should be improved in 2017.

4. San Francisco 49ers(+3500 odds to win NFC West at Bovada) – The 49ers will give the Jets a run for their money as the worst NFL team in the league in 2017. The 49ers cleaned house after a terrible 2-14 year last season and brought in a new general manager in John Lynch and head coach in Kyle Shanahan. We like those hires and we really liked what Lynch was able to do in the 2017 NFL Draft as he was able to trade down and stockpile future picks plus he picked a couple of studs in the 1st round in defensive end Solomon Thomas out of Stanford and linebacker Reuben Foster out of Alabama. Lynch is used to playing on a team where the defense does the heavy lifting as his old Tampa Bay teams did just that so it was no surprise to see Lynch focus on defense with the top of his 1st draft as a GM. The 49ers defense was a horrendous 32nd in the NFL last season and needs a few great drafts before it rises to “elite” status in our opinion. The 49ers offense was just as bad last season finishing 31st and will most likely be amongst the worst again this season. Lynch and Shanahan have a lot of work to do but they are the right guys for the job.
