2018 NFL NFC West Odds & Expert Picks/Predictions – NFC West Division Forecast

1. Los Angeles Rams(-200 odds to win NFC West at Bovada) – The Rams busted out from years of being a laughing stock and after thought to an upper echelon NFL squad last year. Rookie head coach Sean McVay quieted all the doubters when he led the Rams to an impressive 11-5 regular season record while being the NFL’s youngest head coach. McVay has the Rams organization, players and fans thinking big this year as they have Super Bowl dreams and the roster is loaded with talent to give themselves a great shot at it. The Rams finished 10th in the NFL in total offense last season at 361.5 yards per game but finished tops in the NFL in scoring at 29.9 points per game. The Rams offense got even more speed added to it in the offseason when they traded for former New England wide receiver Brandin Cooks who gives quarterback Jared Goff a home run threat from anywhere on the field now. Defensively, the Rams finished 12th in pointes allowed at 20.6 points per game last year and should be improved after adding veteran defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh, cornerback Aqib Talib and cornerback Marcus Peters in the offseason.

2. San Francisco 49ers(+200 odds to win NFC West at Bovada) – The buzz is back in the bay as the San Francisco 49ers finally secured a legit franchise quarterback talent to build around late in the season last year when they acquired quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo in a trade from New England. Jimmy G is a flat out stud who has yet to lose a game that he has started in the NFL(7-0 overall) and his acquisition could go down as one of the biggest NFL heists of all-time. He is that good. Look for the 49ers to be vastly improved from a scoring unit that ranked just 20th in the NFL last year at 20.7 points per game with Jimmy G running the show from week one this year. The 49ers defense is still a work in progress and finished just 25th in scoring defense last year at 23.9 points per game. The 49ers are probably a year away from being a legit NFC and Super Bowl contender but look for them to get their feet wet with a playoff appearance this season.

3. Seattle Seahawks(+300 odds to win NFC West at Bovada) – The Seahawks have been the bully on the block in the NFC West and a legit NFC and Super Bowl contender for a number of years now under head coach Pete Carroll but things are starting to trend the other way in our eyes. The Seahawks roster is getting older at some key spots and they lost the face of their defense in the offseason when cornerback Richard Sherman signed with the 49ers in free agency. The Seahawks still have one of the NFL’s best quarterbacks in Russell Wilson but the guy can’t do it all and overcome for some glaring weaknesses around the rest of the roster. Look for Seattle to miss the playoffs for the 2nd season in a row and for the fans to start campaigning for a head coaching change in the offseason as it appears Carroll has never found a way to get command of his team back after that disastrous ending to the Super Bowl against England in 2015.

4. Arizona Cardinals(+1000 odds to win NFC West at Bovada) – The Cardinals have missed out on the NFC playoffs the last two seasons and it’s going to be hard for them to find their way back anytime soon with the way the Rams and 49ers are building young talented rosters in the same division. The Cardinals have brought in a new head coach in Steve Wilks and his defensive background should help keep the Cardinals formidable on defense and make it a stout defenses to score on in the league. However, the offense is a totally different story as the quarterback position is a question mark with veteran ham and egger Sam Bradford expected to be the starter and rookie draft pick Josh Rosen most likely being forced to carry a clip board all season. We are not sold on Bradford and never have been so we expect minimal to zero improvement from an offense that finished 25th in the NFL last season at 18.4 points per game.
