Falcons sign OL Newberry
Football Betting Lines
06/15/2009 - Flowery Branch, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Atlanta Falcons signed free agent offensive lineman Jeremy Newberry on Monday. Terms of the deal were not released.
The 6-foot-5, 315-pounder appeared in all 16 games for San Diego last season after spending the 2007 season with Oakland and starting each of the 14 games in which he played.
A 12-year NFL veteran and two-time Pro Bowl selection, Newberry began his career in San Francisco and spent nine years with the 49ers. He was a second- round selection (58th overall) by the club in 1998 and started every game in which he appeared from 1999-2007, spending time at both the guard and tackle positions in addition to his primary duties as a center.
However, he missed the entire 2006 season with a knee injury before signing with Oakland the following year.

Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds
Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
