Printers, Lions beat up on shorthanded Alouettes

Football Betting Lines

09/03/2010 - Montreal, QC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Casey Printers threw a pair of touchdown passes and British Columbia's defense gave Chris Leak fits in his first pro start as the Lions snapped out of an awful funk in a big way with a 38-17 dismantling of the East Division-leading Montreal Alouettes at McGill Stadium.

Printers passed for 235 yards on 14-of-28 attempts, throwing touchdowns to Geroy Simon and Steven Black before leaving with cramping. Jamal Robertson rushed for 63 yards on just six carries, while Yonus Davis scored on the ground as the Als put the brakes on a seven-game losing streak dating back to the season opener.

It was the Lions' first win in Montreal since the 2006 season.

Leak, meanwhile, had a shaky debut at best, throwing two interceptions and losing a fumble that was returned 48 yards for a touchdown by BC's Korey Banks.

The former Florida star was 15-of-27 passing for 135 yards in subbing for two- time reigning CFL Offensive Player of the Year Anthony Calvillo, who was out due to a sternum injury and bruised ribs.

It was Montreal's first home loss since October of the 2008 campaign.

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.
