Report: Louisville QB Simms suspended four games

Cfootball Betting Lines

08/20/2008 - Louisville, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Louisville has reportedly suspended backup quarterback Matt Simms -- the son of former NFL QB Phil Simms -- for the first four games of the season due to a violation of team policy.

The Louisville Courier-Journal reported Tuesday that Cardinals head coach Steve Kragthorpe had suspended the backup QB for four games for the unspecified rules violation. A redshirt freshman, Simms is battling sophomore Tyler Wolfe for the No. 2 QB spot behind starter Hunter Cantwell.

According to the paper, Simms -- the brother of former Texas QB and current Tampa Bay Buccaneer Chris Simms -- will miss Louisville's games against Kentucky, Tennessee Tech, Kansas State, and Connecticut. He will be eligible to return on October 10, when the Cardinals visit Memphis.

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.
