McNabb makes first practice appearance

Football Betting Lines

06/11/2007 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb participated in his first practice with the team on Monday. He had surgery last November after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and missed the remainder of the season.

McNabb participated in team drills, took a limited number of snaps and threw some passes to test the strength of his right leg.

"It felt great to get back out there on the field with all of the guys," said McNabb. "It's just part of the rehab process and hopefully good things will continue to come. It is important to continue to monitor my progress, but also be smart about the whole situation."

McNabb had been throwing on the side for weeks, doing individual movement drills and simulating practice experiences, but had not participated in any team activities until Monday.

"He's where we hoped he would be. He worked very hard to get to this spot, so we let him test it out today," said Eagles coach Andy Reid. "We didn't give him too much. We want to make sure he can move around tomorrow, if possible. So we gave him a few shots and got him back to the ice tub."

He suffered the injury during a 31-13 loss to Tennessee on November 19, 2006.

The mishap occurred when he rolled out to his right on 2nd-and-10, was bumped as he released the ball and landed awkwardly out of bounds. He was unable to put pressure on his right leg after the play, and was carted off the field.

Surgery was performed two weeks later in Birmingham, Alabama by Dr. James Andrews, who reconstructed the QB's ACL while also repairing some meniscus damage.

In his eight seasons in the NFL, all with the Eagles, McNabb has played in 104 games, 98 starts, and has thrown for 22,080 yards with a 58.2 percent completion percentage and 152 touchdowns along with 72 interceptions.

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.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)

Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5

Chiefs -1 @ Texans +1

Dolphins +3 @ Redskins -3

Patriots -5 @ Jets +5

Eagles -3.5 @ Packers +3.5

Steelers -4 @ Browns +4

Titans +6 @ Jaguars -6

Bears +6 @ Chargers -6

Lions +3 @ Raiders -3

Bucs +6.5 @ Seahawks -6.5

Giants +4 @ Cowboys -4

Ravens +3 @ Bengals -3

Cardinals +3 @ 49ers -3
