The NFL has announced its 17-week, 256-game regular-season schedule for 2009 and it will kick off on Thursday, September 10 when the Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers host the Tennessee Titans.
Kickoff weekend also features 14 Sunday games, highlighted by the prime-time matchup featuring the Chicago Bears against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau. Sunday’s action also includes the NFC champion Arizona Cardinals hosting NFC West rivals the San Francisco 49ers.
The Pittsburgh Steelers showed why they were the grittiest, toughest, best team in the NFL this past season by winning their second Super Bowl in four years and becoming the first team in NFL history to win six Super Bowls.
How did the Steelers do it? By having faith in their second best wide receiver, Santonio Holmes, and by simply hustling and outplaying Arizona’s defense in what almost assuredly will go down as one of the best Super Bowl winning drives in the sports’ history.
It’s been a relatively uneventful buildup to Super Bowl XLIII between the Pittsburgh Steelers (14-4, 11-7 ATS) and the Arizona Cardinals (12-7, 12-7 ATS). Most of the major storylines have dissipated: Hines Ward is going to play, Anquan Boldin is in a good mood, there’s been nothing in the way of bulletin board material, even action on the NFL betting board has been predictable.
Even if you’re not the biggest football fan, or haven’t dabbled in the world of NFL betting before, the Super Bowl offers something for everybody on the BetUS sportsbook. This year, with thousands of odds and lines available, Super Bowl betting is truly a universal event—whether you’re a music fan, a TV fanatic, or a die-hard follower of the nuances in a football game.

I am submitting some Super Bowl props for the digestion of the powers-that-be at BetUS, and I certainly hope they can make use of “The Charles Jay Line” on things. Actually, I do this every year, in the pursuit of laying some out that aren’t part of the menu appearing at any other source. There are so many of them that I cannot be certain these are completely original, but I wouldn’t bet against it.
The theme of this Super Bowl is already evident: Defense or offense? The Cardinals have the No. 4 offense in the NFL, No. 2 in passing, behind QB Kurt Warner and a talented trio of three-1,000+ yard receivers. The physical Steelers have the No. 1 defense. History says defense wins championships, which is why Pittsburgh is favored. But there’s a reason they play the games, as we saw last season when the double-digit Giants stunned the 18-0 Patriots, 17-14.
NFL betting surrounding the Super Bowl often focuses on the spread and the total at the expense of the many proposition wagers on the board.
Bettors get so caught up in examining every trend and line move (the Arizona Cardinals are currently 6.5-point underdogs, by the way), they forget some of the biggest value lies on the proposition side of action.
The Super Bowl is considered the premier online sportsbook betting event in the United States. Without a doubt, most online NFL betting fans wait in anticipation for the Super Bowl.
This is where football betting fans try to cash in on the big bucks. One of the best things about the Super Bowl is the fact that the BetUS NFL odds makers release more than just one against the spread line. This allows the astute online betting fan to find the best online odds for the biggest game of the season.
At least Cowher did Tomlin a favor by filling up the Championship hand of Pittsburgh with “one for the thumb.” Now Tomlin has a fresh hand to build his own legacy, and it could start as soon as February 1st, when the Steelers and Cardinals throw the gauntlet down in Tampa Bay for Super Bowl XLIII.
The annual NFL betting grand finale called the Super Bowl is now set, and the matchup is as improbable as the wild season that gave us this year’s participants.
