Bombers' Whitaker highlights CFL weekly awards

Football Betting Lines

08/24/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Montreal Alouettes running back Brandon Whitaker, Montreal linebacker Chip Cox and Winnipeg Blue Bombers kick returner Jovon Johnson were selected as the CFL's top performers for Week 8 of the 2010 season.

Whitaker earned the Offensive Player of the Week honor after scoring a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns and gaining 74 yards on the ground, adding five catches for 44 yards in the Als' 39-17 thrashing of Winnipeg.

Earning the defensive award was Cox, who tortured the Bombers in that rout. He returned a fumble 14 yards for a touchdown, recorded a sack and led his club with nine tackles. This is his second weekly award, having claimed mention as the league's top defender in Week 6.

Johnson took home the special teams award for the week by returning six punts for 105 yards and a touchdown -- a 74-yard run which got the Bombers within a score late in the third quarter. This is also his second weekly award of 2010.

Rounding out the weekly awards was the Canadian Player of the Week Andre Durie of the Toronto Argonauts. Durie posted a career-best 84 yards from scrimmage in the Argos' 16-12 loss to Hamilton, compiling seven catches for 69 yards and rushed once for 15 yards.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)

Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5
