The Seattle Seahawks’ slow start isn’t hurting their status as a Super Bowl contender. At least as far as Las Vegas odds makers are concerned.
The opening odds for the Seahawks to win the Super Bowl were 12/1 (tied for fourth best) according to the Westgate Las Vegas Super Book. What about now that they’re 2-2 and rank 27th in rushing defense? The Seahawks’ odds have actually improved to 10/1, sixth best in the NFL and third best in the NFC.
The Seahawks’ have started 2-2 three other times under coach Pete Carroll. Each time they made the playoffs and won their first-round game.
