Broncos put TE Jackson on IR, sign Mustard
Football Betting Lines
11/20/2008 - Englewood, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Denver Broncos placed tight end Nate Jackson on injured reserve Thursday, ending his season. The club also signed tight end Chad Mustard.
Jackson injured his right hamstring in practice on Wednesday. The 29-year-old has 11 catches for 84 yards and one touchdown for the Broncos this season. Both the catches and yardage were career highs for Jackson, who has played sparingly during his six years in the league, all in Denver.
Mustard, 31, has 12 career catches for 123 yards in his five-year career. He was released by the Broncos earlier this season. The North Dakota product is in his third campaign with Denver after two seasons with the Cleveland Browns.

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.
