Betting On San Francisco 49ers To Win 2014 Super Bowl

2014 Super Bowl Gambling

The 2012-2013 NFL season was filled with lots of great action, and you can expect more of the same in the 2013-2014 season. There are plenty of teams who are capable of finishing the season as Super Bowl champions. Last year, it was the Baltimore Ravens who ended on top.

Over the next few weeks, we’re going to start looking at some teams that could hoist the Lombardi Trophy this coming season!

San Francisco 49ers Odds to win Super Bowl XLVII from Bookmaker: +550

The San Francisco 49ers dug a big hole in last year’s Super Bowl contest against the Baltimore Ravens and then almost came all the way back to win. In the end, it was the Ravens who held off the 49ers in what was a very close game.

The 49ers came extremely close, but they ended up going home empty-handed. Jim Harbaugh’s team clearly had a great season, but Harbaugh and the rest of this team definitely left the season feeling like they missed out on a great opportunity. Can the 49ers get take that last little step and win it all this year?

Colin Kaepernick burst onto the scene midway through last season, and there is no longer any controversy surrounding who the starting quarterback will be in San Francisco. Kaepernick certainly has some minor weaknesses in his game, but he is such an amazing play maker that he is already one of the most feared quarterbacks in the league. Kaepernick has an extremely strong arm, and he is arguably the best running quarterback in the NFL right now. The 49ers likely wouldn’t have gotten to where they were last year without him under center. His upside is huge in the next few years.

The 49ers defense is the strength of the team. Patrick Willis is a beast of a middle linebacker, and he is a great leader for this unit. They have ball hawks in the secondary and top pass rushers on the front. Justin Smith is a very good pass rusher on the line, and Aldon Smith is right up there with Von Miller when it comes to best pass rushing linebackers. [soliloquy id=”82219″]

The 49ers depth at the running back position is really amazing. Frank Gore is the leader of the group, but the Niners have several others who are capable of being great in the backfield as well. Kendall Hunter and LaMichael James are the top backups. Look for James to play a major role on this team as a kick returner this year. I also like the 49ers pick of Marcus Lattimore late in this year’s NFL Draft. Lattimore was arguably the best running back in college football before getting hurt, so taking a chance on him was a great idea.

The 49ers will meet the Packers in week one, so we should get an idea pretty quickly of how good this team will be. San Francisco’s offense is on the rise, and this defense will be elite once again. Bookmaker lists them as the favorite to win the Super Bowl. Harbaugh’s team will definitely be a tough out in the postseason!
