Where exactly the Carolina Panthers stand a year after fumbling to a league-worst 2-14 record is a mystery, but at least they have a standout first-year quarterback to entertain them while they find out.

This Sunday, coming off a record-setting rookie debut, Panthers QB Cam Newton will look to follow up a 422-yard performance against a slightly more intimidating opponent than last week?s Arizona Cardinals: the reigning champion Green Bay Packers.

As far as the NFL betting lines are concerned, Newton?s dazzling display behind center is little more than an afterthought when it comes to the Week 2 tilt with the Pack. Despite playing hosts on the weekend, Carolina will have a +10.5 spread to contend with in order to payout.

With negligible odds of winning the Super Bowl and no guarantee that Newton will match, let alone exceed, his 24 for 37, three touchdown night (one rushing), all eyes will be on Green Bay as a true measuring stick for the young quarterback.

If NFL odds junkies are looking for player props to bet on this season, it?ll be hard not to consider the athletic Heisman winner out of Auburn, but the jury is still out on whether his Week 1 is a sign of things to come.

Point spread: Philadelphia -2.5

Over/Under: 50

It will a battle of the birds this Sunday night when Michael Vick returns to the Georgia Dome with his Philadelphia Eagles to take on his old team, the Atlanta Falcons in a NFC clash between two division winners from a year ago. The kick-off is slated for 8:20 p.m. (ET) and the game will be broadcast nationally on NBC.

Philadelphia got off to a solid start last week with a 31-13 victory over St. Louis as a 4.5-point road favorite. The total ended as a ?push? against a closing line of 44 points. Philadelphia gave up a 47-yard rushing touchdown to Steven Jackson on the Rams first play from scrimmage, but then settled down to build a 10-point lead at the half. The Eagles put the game away for good in the fourth quarter, when LeSean McCoy ripped-off a 49-yard run for a score.

Vick finished the game with 187 yards passing and 98 yards rushing as the Eagles torched St. Louis for over 400 yards of total offense.

Atlanta did not fare as well in its opener with a 30-12 loss to Chicago as a three-point road favorite. The total went ?over? the 40.5-point line. The Falcons? normally potent offense was held to just two field goals as their only touchdown in the game was a 54-yard interception return when the game had already been decided. Matt Ryan finished the day with 319 yards passing and Michael Turner had 100 yards rushing, but Atlanta could not find its way into the end zone.

The Eagles are 7-3 against the spread in their last 10 games as a road favorite and the total has gone ?over? in six of their last seven games on the road. The Falcons are 4-1 ATS in their last five games as a home underdog and the total has gone ?over? in nine of their last 13 games overall.

Head-to-head, Philadelphia is 9-2-1 ATS in the last 12 meetings overall and 4-1-1 ATS in the last six games in Atlanta. The total has stayed ?under? in seven of the last eight games overall and in the last five meetings here.

This will be Michael Vick?s first appearance in the Georgia Dome as a starter since his days in Atlanta, but do not expect the crowd to welcome him back with open arms. The thing to expect is another big night from this Eagles? offense to pin the Falcons into an early 0-2 hole.

The Pick: Philadelphia 34 Atlanta 21

AL Central Preview: Cleveland Indians vs. Chicago White Sox

The Milwaukee Brewers are the hottest team in baseball.

In almost no time they've perfected a starting rotation that plagued them as recently as last year, flaunted the absolute dominance of their superstars with a Sports Illustrated cover story and, most importantly, managed to turn what was once a tight NL Central race into the biggest landslide lead in MLB this season.

It's no surprise they have 13/2 odds of winning the World Series this season.

This Thursday, however, the Brewers will face a true challenge for the first time in months, hosting the National League king Philadelphia Phillies for a four-game set.

For Milwaukee, the series is a serious gauging point. Though they've shredded their NL Central foes for weeks now, the Phillies have been atop the NL East and entire league all season long. Bet on the MLB juggernaut clash with Bodog's online sportsbook.

Though the Brew Crew have won over fans and critics alike with their dominance of late, the Phils were pegged as early favorites ever since last offseason, the expectations remain today. Philadelphia currently sits atop the MLB futures board with 2/1 odds of winning the World Series.

Not only will the mid-September tilt serve as a potential NLCS preview, it will also showcase two of the game?s best colliding violently at the peaks of their reign. Bet on Brewers/Phillies now.

Surging Brewers to Face September Test Versus Dominant Phillies

The last two Super Bowl champions will be at work Thursday night, helping usher in the latest NFL betting campaign. Heading into their Week 1 affair, both the Green Bay Packers and visiting New Orleans Saints will look to justify their lofty spots on the futures board.

Though they were disappointed in the first round of the playoffs by the shocking Seattle Seahawks last season, the Saints sit with 12/1 odds of winning the Super Bowl in 2012. The Packers, coming off a fantastic post-season run and returning many of the stars who got them there, are even better with 7/1 odds.

But the best part about the return of football is that fans are no longer limited to only playing Super Bowl futures. With regular season action just days away, individual tilts with individual NFL betting lines await in the online sportsbook ripe for the plucking.

Can Drew Brees and co. rebound from their early exit last winter? They?ll be looking to do so under one of the biggest spotlights the NFL has to offer.

The Packers, on the other hand, have nothing to fear aside from how they manage the extended pressure that inevitably comes with the newly-set targets on their backs. If Aaron Rodgers and Clay Matthews III can put forth efforts this season that they did last, they should be just fine.

Odds Favor Momentum as 2011 and 2010 Super Bowl Champs Collide

Point spread: New England -7

Over/Under: 45.5

The New England Patriots kick-off their regular season against a familiar opponent when they tangle with the Miami Dolphins this Monday night at Sun Life Stadium in this AFC East matchup. The game is slated to get underway at 7 p.m. (ET) and it will be broadcast nationally on ESPN.

New England raced to an NFL-best 14-2 record last season only to lose to its bitter rival, the Jets, 28-21 as 9.5-point home favorite in the Divisional Round of the playoffs. The Patriots have been instilled by Bodog as the favorites to win the Super Bowl this season at 11/2.

Quarterback Tom Brady appeared to be in mid-season form in limited play in the preseason and has the majority of the weapons back from an offense that finished the season ranked eighth in the NFL in total yards per game and first in points with an average of 32.4 a game. Wes Welker and Deion Branch will once again anchor the receiving corps, but New England added Chad Ochocinco as an added twist to the passing game.

Miami?s miraculous 11-5 record and AFC East title in 2008 must seem like a faded memory to fourth-year head coach Tony Sparano after his team posted back-to-back 7-9 seasons. An even bigger issue for this game was the Dolphins dismal performance at home last season, where they went just 1-7 SU.

The much maligned Chad Henne will get the start at quarterback on Monday night for Miami. Henne completed 61.4 percent of his throws in 2010 for 3,301 yards and 15 touchdowns, but he is better known for his 19 interceptions and inconsistent play. The addition of Reggie Bush catching balls out of the backfield will help, but the Dolphins will have to find a way to improve upon the 17.1 points a game they averaged last year, which ranked them 30th in the league.

Head-to-head, the Patriots have won seven of the last 10 games SU. They outscored Miami 79-21 in the two games last season, easily covering the spread in each. The road team is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings and the total has gone ?over? in four of the last six games between the two.

Count on Brady to come out firing on Monday in an effort to put this one away early. The Dolphins are just too outmatched in offensive fire power to stand toe-to-toe with this team.

The Pick: New England 34 Miami 13

NFL Betting Preview - New England Patriots vs. Miami Dolphins

Point spread: New York -4

Over/Under: 40.5

The Dallas Cowboys will look to start this season on a winning note when they take on the New York Jets on Sunday night at the New Meadowlands Stadium in New Jersey. The game is slated to start at 8:20 p.m. (ET) and it will be broadcast nationally on NBC.

Last season did not go anywhere near as planned for Dallas after a 1-6 start completely derailed this team. Jason Garrett was promoted to head coach and helped corral the Cowboys to a 6-10 finish. Heading into this season, he is confident this team has what it takes to return to the top of the NFC East.

Having Tony Romo back as his starting quarterback will definitely help after he missed the final 10 games of the year with a broken collar bone. Also back is wide receiver Dez Bryant, who went down with a broken ankle in early November. Throw in Miles Austin and Jason Witten in the passing game and Felix Jones and Tashard Choice running the ball and this team should be able to put some points on the board.

New York, under head coach Rex Ryan, have been all about creating a solid rushing attack and a shutdown defense. This has gotten the Jets to two straight AFC Championship games, but they will need better production from third-year quarterback Mark Sanchez in order to take the next step. He has managed the game well, but has yet to show the ability to put this team on his back and carry it to a championship.

The first step would be to improve upon a 54.8 completion percentage that is just not getting the job done. Fortunately, Sanchez will have wide receiver Santonio Holmes back as well as Plaxico Burress to try and improve these numbers. The Jets also have that running game to fall back on, led by Shonn Greene and rookie Bilal Powell.

Dallas is 5-0 against the spread in its last five games as an underdog and the total has gone ?over? in six of its last seven games as a dog.

New York is 4-9 ATS in its last 13 games as a favorite of 3.5 points or more. The total has gone ?over? in seven of its last 10 games as a favorite.

Romo could struggle in his first game back after the long layoff, but the Cowboys keep things close enough to cover the four points in a game that stays ?under? the total.

The Pick: New York 17 Dallas 16

In their last action, Oklahoma State was a 61-34 winner at home against Louisiana-Lafayette. They failed to cover the 38?point spread as favorites, while the combined score (95) was profitable news for OVER bettors.

NCAA Football Preview: Arizona Wildcats vs. Oklahoma State Cowboys

The CFL's top two West Division teams will square off in a primetime bout this long weekend when the 6-2 Calgary Stampeders host the 5-3 Edmonton Eskimos on Monday afternoon.

Not only does the match serve as a potential preview of the league's West Division final, it also gives bettors an inside look at two heated story lines that ought to factor into any CFL betting decision.

Though both teams sit towards the top of the Grey Cup futures list, they?re headed in vastly opposite directions.

Having won their last four games, the Stampeders are well on their way to replicating last year?s success when they finished the 2010 campaign with the best record in Canadian football.

The Eskimos, on the other hand, after winning their first five games of the season have been in free fall ever since. With just 5/1 odds of winning the Grey Cup - a low mark considering six of the eight teams in the league make the playoffs - bettor confidence is obviously waning.

In contrast, the Stampeders have 9/4 odds of winning the CFL championship this fall. A mark even more optimistic than the 7-1 Blue Bombers and two-time reigning champion Alouettes.

Will the Stampeders continue their torrid run through the league or will the spotlight be all Edmonton needs to get their wayward season back on track?

Bet CFL Action with Bodog.

MLB Futures Favor Rangers, but Rays No Easy Opponent

The Tampa Bay Rays may be a virtual non-factor when it comes to the AL East playoff picture this fall, but that doesn?t mean they can't play spoilers for some of their American League rivals.

This Monday the Rays will host the AL West-leading Texas Rangers for a three-game set and the MLB betting community will be watching.

According to Bodog's online sportsbook, the Rangers - currently a handful of games up on the second-place Los Angeles Angels - have 11/1 odds of winning the World Series. The Rays, despite a similar record, sit at just 150/1 odds due to the Yankee/Red Sox logjam ahead of them.

Though Tampa Bay's fate is all but decided, the series will go a long way towards Texas? hopes of hanging on to the playoff berth. A Tampa sweep could send the Rangers into a downward spiral.

Since whichever team comes second in the AL East has the wild card berth essentially guaranteed, the AL West crown serves as the only hope for both the Rangers and Angels.

Can Texas hang on to the division lead and allow themselves the opportunity to claw their way back to the World Series as they did last year? The Angels, though down, aren?t out and still have 35/1 odds on the MLB futures board.

You can bet Mike Scioscia and company will be cheering for the Rays this week.

The surging Arizona Diamondbacks have an opportunity to put yet more space between themselves and the reigning World Series champion San Francisco Giants this weekend. The question is, can they actually follow through?

What was once looking like a tightly-fought NL West division race has blown right open thanks to the D-Backs' late-August success. Now, with a three-game set on the horizon, the Giants can either start clawing back at the lead, or continue their downward spiral.

As far as the MLB betting world is concerned, the Giants are a superbly-staffed club with winning experience. Arizona, in contrast, is still very much an unproven commodity. That may be why the D-Backs sit with just 18/1 odds of winning the World Series compared to San Francisco?s 25/1 despite the gap in the standings.

With the wild card berth essentially locked down by the NL East?s Atlanta Braves, it's all or nothing for the rivalry in the west. If Arizona can hold on to their playoff ticket, it will be their first trip to the postseason since 2007.

Led by Justin Upton and a contingent of well-rounded young hitters, not to mention revitalized ace Dan Haren, the Diamondbacks have seemingly come out of nowhere to emerge as a legitimate MLB betting option.

It may be hard to completely buy into the D-Backs? as contenders philosophy, but those who do stand the chance of collecting a significant payout.

Bodog: HOME OF THE HEAVY HITTERS.

MLB Odds Favor D-Backs, Reputation Favors Giants
