San Francisco 49ers' altered Super Bowl chances and NFC title prospects following Brock Purdy's contract extension
Alright, I'm diving in here so let's get the scoop on that fresh contract extension Brock Purdy just got from the 49ers. This $265 million deal over five years ain't no joke – it's one of the biggest for QBs out there. With $181 million guaranteed, Brock's weekly paycheck will be fatter than a Burger King Whopper, knocking his average salary per week up from $2.6 million (for the first three years of his career) to an impressive $2.9 million.
Now, you might be wonderin' why the sportsbooks had their eyes on this deal – and for good reason too. The Niners were already a top pick in various futures markets, and this extension just confirmed things were gonna get done.
So, let's take a gander at the updated San Francisco 49ers Super Bowl odds and NFC Futures post-Brock's contract extension:
San Francisco 49ers 2025 NFL Futures
Well, the Super Bowl odds didn't budge. They're still at 20-1, which tells us the oddsmakers didn't see a Niners season without Brock as a possibility. That puts them as the seventh choice on the odds board, but they won't have to square off against any of the top-nine contenders until the playoffs.
The 49ers Divisional odds also held strong at +145. They've claimed the NFC West crown in two of the last three years, and it looks like they'll be gunning for it again in 2025.
Now's the time to strike, folks. I'd sprinkle a little dough on the Niners to win the Super Bowl, but if I had to pick two bets that catch my fancy, it's the Niners to win the NFC West, and San Fran to earn the NFC's number 1 seed – especially at those juicy +650 odds.
Why, you ask? Well, 2025 sets up to be a big comeback season for San Fran – and for Brock too. The youngest starting QB in the playoffs last year, Purdy stepped up big and proved his mettle on the field despite missing three crucial pieces of their offense.
You better believe Purdy will shine even brighter when he's got all his weapons back in the game. And with a schedule that onlyFeatures four opponents with a winning record on it? The sky's the limit for these Niners!
