    but for the sake of the question

    how much will the odds change from 5 to 1 assuming the Seahawks start the season 1-1

    Bear, just bet them game by game. Why are people so obsessed with betting crappy future prices?

    Never bet futures number one the juice is too high number two the books invest your money and investments and gain interest on it and number three your money is tied up all year

    I disagree.
    Betting futures gives bettors the advantage in value.
    The line becomes more juiced as the event nears by.
    The distant the event is, the more value you get.
    I have a +450 Golden State Warriors to win the NBA championship bet during the regular season.

    The line becomes less juiced as the event nears. Multi-way bets are juiced according to the number of options. As teams get eliminated, there are fewer options and less juice. When it's just 2 teams left, it's standard juice.

    You can use SBR's arb calculator to also calculate juice if you want to see for yourself: http://www.sportsbookreview.com/bett...ge-calculator/
