Seahawks Hire Mike Macdonald as Head Coach, Super Bowl LIX Odds Revealed
The Seattle Seahawks finally have a new head coach after reportedly hiring Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald. Seattle also has fresh Super Bowl odds ... for 2025.
While Seattle looks to start a new era with Pete Carroll's successor, the oddsmakers are already (prematurely) gauging their chances of winning the Super Bowl that will played one year from now: LIX in New Orleans.
Yes, these odds come before the 2023 season is cooked. And before free agency, the draft and the naming of a head coach and his new staff of assistants.
With that said, sports wagering site Fan Duel is establishing this year's Super Bowl teams - the Kansas City Chiefs (+450) and San Francisco 49ers (+750) - as the favorites for next season. Next behind them: Baltimore Ravens (+900), Detroit Lions (+1200), Buffalo Bills (+1200) and Dallas Cowboys (+1500).
The Seahawks come in at +7500, meaning a $100 bet would net $7,500. Could these odds change with the Macdonald hiring? Time will tell.
Seattle's odds are tied with the New Orleans Saints, Las Vegas Raiders, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Arizona Cardinals for 12th-highest in the league.
The Carolina Panthers have the worst odds at +25000.
