Seahawks, then Panthers odds on favorites for the Super Bowl

In the NFC.

 

 

According to one major Nevada oddsmaking firm, there are two teams and everyone else when it comes to Super Bowl contenders.

In odds released Tuesday, William Hill U.S. lists the Seahawks as 9-to-5 favorites to capture Super Bowl XLVIII in February. Interestingly enough, Seattle’s odds have fallen from a week ago, even after a surprising home loss to Arizona.

The Seahawks, who were 2-to-1 favorites last week, can clinch homefield advantage the NFC playoffs with a win Sunday vs. St. Louis or a loss by San Francisco at Arizona.

The AFC-leading Broncos have the second-shortest Super Bowl odds at 9-to-4. The Broncos have long been a short price to win the Super Bowl; William Hill listed them at around 2-to-1 as early as the beginning of October.

The only other teams with odds of less than 10-to-1 are the 49ers (13-to-2) and Panthers (9-to-1).

 

 

Oh how interesting a Panther/Bronco match up would be.

It starts this Sunday.

The Seahawks were outgained by over 200 yards in the first meeting vs the Rams. Over 200 yards!!! Carson Palmer had 4 INTs and the Cards still won last week. Quinn and Long are hard to stop and the Rams would love to beat those guys and get to .500. They already have the Redskins top 2 pick so winning cost them nothing. I like their chances.

I'd love a Broncos/Panthers Super Bowl. 

Peyton in the cold? Get to him early and I like our chances. Don't pressure him? Lol at our secondary against Peyton and those WRs. Then after the game, Cam talks Decker into coming to sign here. 

Would be cool going up against John Fox in the SB...BUT...there is still much work to be done.

We are all Panthers/Rams/49ers fans this weekend. I don't care if the Taints get into the playoffs from the Cards losing. The Cards scare me more than the Taints on the road do.

 

yes, yes we realize the cards are a scary team that we lost to. We don't need to repeat it 20 times. If we are true superbowl contenders then we are going to need to beat good teams period. It really doesn't matter who the team is just beat them.

Not sure where the Panthers have the second best chances, when both Denver (9-4) and San Francisco (13-2) have better odds?

 

Nonetheless, we already know the Panthers are good now. So I can't get caught up with odds off the field (though it's nice to hear). 

 

I wanna see the  Panthers do well ON THE FIELD, and make it to the super bowl at Met Life Arena. And hopefully, if they do, it will be unseasonably warm.

You do know Peyton plays in DENVER, right? LOL. Plenty cold there.

 

I'd love to see us against Fox in the SB too. But yeah, our secondary versus Manning ... yikes.
