Hours before the 2026 NFL season kicks off, the latest Super Bowl 61 betting odds have just dropped from FanDuel Sportsbook, and talk about a jolt! While the Los Angeles Rams sit at the top as the +550 favorite to lift that Lombardi Trophy, our Seattle Seahawks are right there, staring down the competition from the third spot overall with +1100 odds. Yeah, you heard that right!
The Top Dogs and Our Green and Blue
It’s no surprise to see the Rams getting so much love, but to have them at +550 right out of the gate still stings a bit for us here in the Emerald City. They’re clearly seen as the team to beat. Just ahead of our Hawks are the Buffalo Bills at +1000, but let’s be real, seeing our Seahawks sitting proudly at third with +1100 before a single snap has even been played? That’s the kind of confidence that makes you want to crank “Go Hawks!” all day long. It’s a huge statement that the league sees us as legitimate contenders from day one.
Who Else Is Lurking in the Super Bowl Hunt?
While we’re busy celebrating our high ranking, we can’t ignore the rest of the pack. The Baltimore Ravens are just behind us at +1300, followed by a tie for fifth with the Los Angeles Chargers and the Kansas City Chiefs both at +1600. Then things get even more crowded with the New England Patriots, San Francisco 49ers, and Houston Texans all tied at +1700. Our division rivals, the 49ers, being in that mix means the NFC West is going to be a brutal fight. The Denver Broncos and Philadelphia Eagles round out the top ten, tied at +1800. Every single one of these teams will be gunning for it.
These odds set the stage for what’s going to be an absolutely wild 2026 NFL season. As the league kicks off today, these numbers tell us that the Seahawks are entering the year with massive expectations. Our Hawks are clearly seen as contenders right out of the gate, and that’s the kind of energy we need heading into Week 1. Let’s go prove them right!
