Football Betting Lines

Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Fresh off their first playoff appearance in 12 years, the Detroit Lions re-signed all three coordinators on Thursday. Scott Linehan (offense), Gunther Cunningham (defense) and Danny Crossman (special teams) all were re-signed following a 10-6 season that saw the team finish with a loss to New Orleans last Saturday in Detroit's first playoff appearance since 1999.

 

Overall, the team finished fifth in yards per game with 396.1 and fourth in scoring with 29.6 points per game.

 

Detroit kicker Jason Hanson booted 24 field goals on the season and also set an NFL record early in the season with the most games ever played by one player for the same organization.

 

Safety Brian Dawkins is doubtful with a neck injury. Dawkins did not practice this week and has played once in the team's last four games.

 

St. Louis, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jeff Fisher will be the next head coach of the St. Louis Rams. According to a report from the Post-Dispatch, Fisher decided to coach the Rams rather than the Miami Dolphins. Both teams sought the former long-time Titans head coach, who returns from a year away from the game. He and Tennessee parted ways following the 2010 season, ending his 17-year run with the team.

 

With the Rams, Fisher replaces Steve Spagnuolo, who was fired along with general manager Billy Devaney the day after St. Louis completed a dismal 2-14 season.

 

He first took over the team on an interim basis in November 1994, when the franchise was known as the Houston Oilers, and was given the job full-time starting in 1995.

 

Fisher didn't part ways with the Titans until January 27 of last year, after other head coaching vacancies had been filled.

As cup crazy fans prepare to place their bets, one online sportsbook ,MySportsbook.com, is offering hockey betting lines on the 2007/2007 Stanley Cup , who will bring it home this upcoming season.

Despite a poor showing in last season's playoffs and the loss of Steve Yzerman to retirement, the Detroit Red Wings are early favourites at this online sportsbook with wagering odds of 6-1. The Wings will look to offensive powerhouse Pavel Datsyuk and newly appointed captain Nicklas Lidstrom to lead one of the league's most prominent franchises.

Always a threat are the Ottawa Senators, with newly acquired goaltender Martin Gerber from the Stanley Cup champion ,Carolina Hurricanes. The Sens are second best in the rankings at a 7-1 bet, and odds makers at this sportsbook are optimistic that the Ottawa squad will fare better than last season's Eastern Conference semi-final upset to the Buffalo Sabres.

Also worth noting are the defending Stanley Cup champs Carolina Hurricanes, a 10-1 bet to repeat. Behind the Canes are the New Jersey Devils, Calgary Flames, Buffalo Sabres, Philadelphia Flyers, and Anaheim Mighty Ducks all sit at 12-1.
