Football Betting Lines

01/04/2009 - San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - San Diego Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson, who sat out the entire second half of the team's wild card win over the Colts with a groin injury, is not a guarantee to play next week against the Steelers.

Chargers head coach Norv Turner said his status for the game will be determined later in the week, and he pointed out that Tomlinson's injury is not any worse than it was last week.

Turner added that it was obvious to the coaching staff that Tomlinson could not play the way he usually does due to the injury. He recorded 25 yards on five rushes with a touchdown in the win over Indianapolis.

Tight end Antonio Gates (ankle) is expected to play next week against Pittsburgh, as is kicker Nate Kaeding (thigh, groin), linebacker Brandon Siler, who missed the last two games with a foot injury, defensive end Luis Castillo (groin) and center Nick Hardwick (shoulder).

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
