Let's head over to the other conference, but we stay on the West Coast, the NFC West, the
00:05
RS, where this division, when you look at some of the divisional prices, win totals
00:11
in conference championship odds, incredibly intriguing.
00:15
The 49ers, now the shortest price ever so slightly by a dime, 10 cents in front of the
00:22
Rams to win the divisional crown, plus 165 for San Francisco, plus 175 for LA.
00:30
They are the reigning NFC West champions, and the Cardinals and the Seahawks both have
00:35
win totals at seven and a half or eight and a half.
00:39
The floor, the basement of this division is not all that far down.
00:43
How do you evaluate those odds around the NFC West?
00:47
Yeah, it's interesting to see what we'll get out of Seattle.
00:49
Like, do we have just one of those years that got really lucky on a quarterback in Sam Darnold
00:53
in Minnesota, playing with a great offensive coordinator, a great, you know, wide receiver
00:56
set, and had the perfect situation.
00:58
Now he's going to go off to the Pacific Northwest, where maybe that situation is so great.
01:02
Arizona Carl, there's a little bit of intrigue there, right?
01:04
Because you got a team that looks like they're on the come up here, stacking more talent,
01:07
Gannon with another year, but those aren't the focal points here.
01:10
It's the two teams in the state of California.
01:12
It's the 49ers, and it's the Rams.
01:14
But honestly, like, there's a lot of question marks with the San Francisco 49ers, Ben, that
01:19
we didn't have in the past couple years.
01:20
Like, hey, Christian McCaffrey's healthy.
01:22
Yeah, but this time, how for long?
01:24
You take a look at the wide receiving court.
01:26
No longer Debo Samuel is there.
01:27
And some people say, oh, it's good to get him out of San Francisco.
01:30
We'll see.
01:30
But Brandon Ayuk was on a path to stardom.
01:33
He had a devastating knee injury.
01:34
We'll see what we get out of him.
01:35
Yeah, sure.
01:36
Jennings stepped up, and you still have George Kittle, Ricky Pearsall.
01:39
You're looking to take that next step.
01:40
I get it.
01:40
But also, the one constant on that football team was, you are going to get a kick-ass
01:45
defense, a lot of changing parts, getting a little bit older at this point.
01:50
Can you still trust one of the San Francisco 49ers to be dominant on defense, which was
01:54
really their calling card outside of Kyle Shanahan calling plays and dialing them up for
01:57
Brock Purdy.
01:58
And also with Brock Purdy, Ben, right?
02:00
The expectations of, hey, cute little kid up there, quarterback making a million bucks.
02:04
He's a $50 million man expected to deliver, where two years ago, I'm going to have a higher
02:09
thought processes on the 49ers than I do now, a quality football team, but way more questions
02:15
to answer than I want to start an NFL season, Ben.
