The San Francisco 49ers suffered a disappointing 20-17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, falling to 5-5 on the year and 1-3 in division play by the end of the game.

It was another ugly loss for the 49ers, who never seemed able to close out the game and were ultimately defeated by an 11-play, 80-yard touchdown drive with quarterback Geno Smith scoring to take the lead with 12 seconds left. left in the game.

Sunday was a big game for San Francisco as they look to snap a three-game winning streak and get a meaningful division win to boost their position in the standings.

Instead, they did the exact opposite and now sit fourth in the NFC West with a 5-5 record, thanks to their poor division play to start the 2024 season.

How do the 49ers’ playoff chances stand overall after Sunday’s loss to the Seahawks?

While San Francisco is just 5-5 and 10th in the NFC, FanDuel Sportsbook is still quite optimistic about their postseason chances, giving them the third-highest odds of any NFC team at +1100 to reach the Super Bowl.

The only teams above that currently are the Detroit Lions, who are the favorites to win the Super Bowl with odds of +440, and the Philadelphia Eagles, who are slightly ahead of the 49ers with odds of +950.

On the AFC, the Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills all have higher odds than the 49ers, but that’s it.

Teams like the Green Bay Packers (7-3), Minnesota Vikings (8-2), Washington Commanders (7-4) and Atlanta Falcons (6-4) all have better records than San Francisco, but significantly lower odds of winning them straight into the Super Bowl, which says quite a bit about where the 49ers still stand from a public perspective.

Now with a record of 5-5, the 49ers have a crucial two-game stretch ahead of them, with the Green Bay Packers and Buffalo Bills ahead of them in Weeks 12 and 13 as both games are on the road.

Currently, the 49ers are 1.5-point underdogs ahead of their Week 12 matchup with the Packers, with the over/under sitting at 47.5 points.

San Francisco will also likely have to win both of its remaining division games, as the path to a wild-card spot is considerably more difficult than a division berth, with the 49ers currently 1.5 games back of No. 7.

Overall, it seems like more of an uphill climb for San Francisco, making any defeat even more painful, especially considering how Sunday’s game went from start to finish.

Over their last seven games, the 49ers will play five teams with a record of .500 or better, so we’ll see how much their odds fluctuate each week depending on the results of those games.
