The NFC West wants to be 1 of the most competitive divisions this season and bettors placing an NFL preseason bet may have a challenging time choosing between the San Francisco 49ers, Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks as their football betting pick. 
Only the St Louis Rams do not look to be contenders in NFL betting for the NFC West.
NFL preseason bet probabilities list the 49ers as the 6-5 fave to win the NFC West this season. Arizona is the 8-5 second option with Seattle at 3-1 followed by St Louis at 10-1. The Cardinals are the reigning winners in this division but devoid of quarterback Kurt Warner who retired and receiver Anquan Boldin who went to Baltimore, the Arizona Cardinals are no more liked in the NFC West. That honor goes to San Francisco, but only barely.
The 49ers have a lot of young talent nonetheless they still have Alex Smith at quarterback so that is a major concern. Smith was a 1st round, 1st pick of the 2005 NFL Draft and has played with the San Francisco 49ers ever since. He was earlier a player for the University of Utah’s Utes. The 49ers can run the ball with Frank Gore and they’ve interesting receivers like Michael Crabtree and Vernon Davis but Smith does not consistently get them the ball. They do have concerns, specifically in the secondary, although the defense is directed by Patrick Willis.
The success of Arizona this season hinges on the play of quarterback Matt Leinart. This is his remaining chance to show he can be an NFL quarterback. Warner is gone so it’s up to Leinart to get the job done. Leinart was the 10th pick in total in the 2006 NFL Draft by the Arizona Cardinals. He does not have a lot of incredibly extraordinary plays to his name, but after Kurt Warner retired, he was promoted to starting quarterback. The Cardinals still have Larry Fitzgerald and Beanie Wells so the offense isn’t devoid of talent. Karlos Dansby and Antrel Rolle are going to be longed for by the defense this season.
The Seattle Seahawks have a new head coach in Pete Carroll and a lot of optimism for 2010. Matt Hasselbeck might not have the capacity to lead a squad like he did years ago, but he is still the quarterback. The squad will get Lofa Tatupu back from injury and he will greatly help the defense.
The Rams have number 1 pick Sam Bradford along with running back Steven Jackson and not a lot else. In the 2010 NFL Draft, Bradford was picked number 1 in total. He holds the NCAA record for touchdown passes by a freshman with 36. He’s won a number of other honors and may actually prove very useful for the Rams as a squad. Head coach Steve Spagnuolo is performing a great job however the Rams still are lacking talent in a number of areas.
San Francisco is no lock to win what looks like the poorest division in the NFL, even if they’re the popular pick in the NFC West in NFL preseason probabilities.
