Yards Beats Run On Denver

Football Betting Lines

Oakland used three completions to move the ball to the Detroit 34. Janikowski made a 46-yard field goal as time expired for a 17-14 lead at the break.

 

Heyward-Bey then fumbled after a 29-yard catch-and-run, but the Lions failed to take advantage of the turnover.

 

On the ensuing Detroit possession, Stafford was sacked and lost the football. Aaron Curry picked up the loose ball and ran six yards into the end zone to make it 27-14.

 

Oakland holds a 6-5 edge in the overall series between these franchises, but Detroit has won the last three matchups in the set...The Lions will have a winning season for the first time since 2000...Heyward-Bey caught eight passes for 155 yards and a score...Oakland running back Michael Bush carried the ball 18 times for 77 yards and caught seven passes for 62 yards...Burleson caught seven passes for 81 yards.

 

Aaron Hernandez had game-highs of nine receptions for 129 yards and a touchdown, and the Patriots' defense overcame a slow start and an injury to Andre Carter to silence the streaking Broncos.

 

But there was had no fourth-quarter magic that has become commonplace over the past two months in Denver (8-6), which still leads the AFC West by one game thanks to the Raiders losing to the Lions on Sunday.

 

The Broncos uncharacteristically started fast and ended with a thud.

 

Between the scores, Chad Ochocinco caught his first touchdown as a Patriot, hauling in a 33-yard pass down the left sideline. It was the former Bengals star's only catch.

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
