Football Wagering - Pro Bowl Action
Preview -
Now that the smoked has cleared on a dynamic
2007-08 NFL season, that was capped off
with an amazing Super Bowl, there's one
more page to turn before we close the book
on a great NFL betting season. Sunday's
Pro Bowl is the last football betting event
of the year and if you were among the thousands
that got buried by New England, who failed
to cover the spread in six of their last
seven games including the Super Bowl XLII,
this will be your chance to recover.
For Giants' investors and fans, congrats!
Your team, as the fourth-biggest puppy
in Super Bowl history, became the 13th
underdog to win the big game SU (straight
up). If you're among this money-making
group the Pro Bowl provides a stellar opportunity
to further build your bankroll.
For those who've never participated in
Pro Bowl betting, you have to give it a
try. It's a must see game as the best NFL
talent converge on one field to put on
a spectacular show. It's the best-of-the-best,
NFC versus AFC and a contest riddled with
stars and skill.
It's an All-Star event of sorts but don't
be mislead on the level of competitiveness
involved. With a bonus of major dollars
at stake for the winning side, things become
competitive which makes for a fantastic
game, to say the least.
The Dallas Cowboys send the most representatives
to the game with 11 players on the team
for the NFC. New England and San Diego
Chargers leads the AFC with 8 players chosen
each.
But the best story of the Pro Bowl rosters
has to be the announcement of Sean Taylor
as the starting free safety for the NFC
squad. As we all know, Taylor was gunned
down in his Miami home this season and
passed away from the injuries suffered.
Leading the NFC on offense under center
will be Jeff Garcia of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers,
who is replacing Brett Favre of the Green
Bay Packers as chosen starting quarterback.
Minnesota Viking's running back Adrian
Peterson will carry the rock along with
others. Terrell Owens of the Cowboys headlines
a star-studded receiving corps.
Calling signals as starting quarterback
for the AFC will be Tom Brady of the Patriots.
Willis McGahee of the Baltimore Ravens,
who's replacing San Diego's LaDainian Tomlinson,
will be just one star leading the ground
game. New Englands' Randy Moss and Indianapolis
Colts' Reggie Wayne will be Brady's primary
starting targets at the receiver spot that
includes many more huge names.
These are just a few of the big names
starting on offense for each club. Defensively,
the talent is immeasurable on both sides
that has the daunting task of shutting
down the potent offenses taking the field
at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii.
The AFC will be coached by Norv Turner
of the Chargers staff, while Mike McCarthy
of the Packers will coach the NFC.
Last year, the AFC out gunned the NFC
in a 31-28 shootout. The AFC has won two
of the last three Pro Bowls. Who will prevail
this year? Find out Sunday, February 10
starting at 5:00pm EST. The talent is unprecedented
and the betting action only adds to the
excitement.
