Bovada, one of the most popular online betting sportsbooks, has released season-long betting lines for NFL teams and players.
The website gave the 49ers the second-best odds to win the NFC West behind the Los Angeles Rams. The 49ers have the 12th-best odds to win Super Bowl LIII. Their odds have fluctuated a bit throughout the offseason and preseason. Back in May, they had the seventh-best odds to win it all.
Last February, the 49ers had the lowest odds to win Super Bowl LII at 150-1, tied with the Browns.
Kyle Shanahan has the fourth-best odds, tied with four other coaches, to win Coach of the Year. Los Angeles Rams’ Sean McVay, Chicago’s Matt Nagy, and Philadelphia’s Doug Pederson have better odds.
The sportsbook gave Jimmy Garoppolo the sixth-best odds to win the NFL MVP award. Garoppolo trails, in order, Aaron Rodgers, Carson Wentz, Tom Brady, Deshaun Watson, and Drew Brees.
Bovada set the over/under lines for Garoppolo’s season at 4,200 passing yards, 24.5 touchdowns, and 12.5 interceptions.
Last year, if you project Garoppolo’s five starts, excluding his momentary appearance in Week 12, over the course of a full season, he would have thrown for 4,954 yards, 19 touchdowns, and 16 interceptions. For reference, quarterbacks have eclipsed that single-season yardage total just 10 times in NFL history. Garoppolo would have led the league by nearly 400 yards in 2017. Bovada gives Garoppolo the eighth-best odds to compile the most passing yards in 2018.
In other 49ers player props, Bovada set the over/under line for Richard Sherman interceptions at 3.5. Marquise Goodwin’s over/under line is set at 900 yards and 4.5 touchdowns, nearly identical to Pierre Garcon’s line of 900 yards and four touchdowns. Jerick McKinnon’s over/under total is set at 1,200 all-purpose yards and 7.5 total touchdowns.
DeForest Buckner has the 25th-best odds to win Defensive Player of the Year. Richard Sherman has the 36th-best odds, and Reuben Foster is No. 40 on the list of 45 players.
Dante Pettis has the 21st-best odds to win Offensive Rookie of the Year.
