Caldwell lands in Baltimore
Football Betting Lines
01/30/2012 -
Owings Mills, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Baltimore Ravens have named Jim
Caldwell as their quarterbacks coach.
Caldwell was fired as head coach of the Indianapolis Colts two weeks ago in
the wake of a 2-14 season and front office upheaval. He took over after Tony
Dungy's retirement and in three seasons posted a mark of 26-22 with a trip to
the Super Bowl after his first year.
The Ravens did not have a quarterbacks coach in 2011 after Jim Zorn left
following the 2010 season. Offensive coordinator Cam Cameron handled the
duties this past season.
Baltimore quarterback Joe Flacco had a banner year in 2011, throwing for 3,610
yards with 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions as the Ravens won the AFC North.
Caldwell served as quarterbacks coach for the Colts in each of his first three
seasons on Dungy's staff and was elevated to assistant head coach before the
2005 campaign. He was also on Dungy's staff for the 2001 season in Tampa Bay.
Prior to joining Dungy in Tampa, Caldwell was the head coach at Wake Forest
from 1993-2000, guiding the Demon Deacons to a record of 26-63 with one
winning season and one bowl appearance.

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.
