Clark, Randle El to return to Steelers
Football Betting Lines
03/09/2010 - Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Pittsburgh Steelers have reportedly agreed to terms with safety Ryan Clark and are also set to bring wide receiver Antwaan Randle El back to the Steel City.
According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Clark agreed to a four-year deal worth $14 million late Monday night, while Randle El will come back to Pittsburgh with a three-year pact.
Clark was an unrestricted free agent who spent the past four seasons in Pittsburgh and has also played for Washington and the New York Giants. He reportedly visited the Miami Dolphins on Monday before deciding to return to the Steelers.
The 30-year-old LSU product had 89 tackles and three interceptions last season. He spent his first two NFL seasons with the Giants, then played two years with the Redskins before joining the Steelers for the 2006 season.
Randle El joined Washington after Pittsburgh's Super Bowl winning season in 2005 and spent the last four years with the Redskins. He started just three of the team's 16 games in 2009 and finished with 50 receptions for 530 yards.
The 30-year-old Indiana product was a quarterback in college, but made the move to receiver with the Steelers. He has 348 career catches for 4,214 yards with 15 touchdowns, and has also thrown four touchdown passes.

FOOTBALL BETTING LINES
NFL Football Sports BettingTwo playoff teams from 2007 take center stage on the NFL Network Sunday night in a Week 2 NFL betting match-up when the (0-1) New England Patriots betting head south to Florida for a contest with the (1-0) Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
New England HC Bill Belichick couldn’t care less about the way his team plays in the preseason. With a chance to tie last week’s game with the Baltimore Ravens betting, He elected to go for the two-point conversion and outright victory. The conversion failed, and the Pats ended up falling to the Ravens by a 16-15 final count.
New England rolled off twelve unanswered points to give it a chance at securing the victory, but it never threatened to cover the 3.5-point spread. NFL bettors saw this one coming, as they bet the Ravens down from +6 to +3.5 as the week progressed. QB Tom Brady didn’t take part in the Patriots first preseason clash, but could see action this weekend.
His three replacements all put up embarrassing numbers. They went a combined 17 for 33, and threw three interceptions and no touchdowns. The New England defense was encouraging, as they held the Ravens to 2/12 third down conversions and surrendered just ten first downs. That ‘D’ should be bolstered with the addition of former Bucs and Denver Broncos betting safety John Lynch, who could make his Patriots debut on Sunday against his former mates.
HC Jon Gruden had to be impressed with the way his Bucs played on both sides of the ball in their dominating 17-6 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 1’s NFL pre-season betting action. Bucs bettors were quite happy with the effort, as they made a mockery of the fact that they were underdogs in the game.
The logjam at the quarterback position didn’t get any easier to separate for Gruden, as all four of his QBs had positive experiences in the first exhibition of 2008. The four combined to complete 28 of their 40 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown, and that was without starting QB Jeff Garcia in the lineup.
RB Michael Bennett had 19 carries and four receptions, totaling 90 yards and a touchdown. Expect to see more of Bennett, Kenneth Darby, and Earnest Graham, as they all compete for playing time with Warrick Dunn in the backfield this season. Defensively, the Bucs recorded four sacks and held the Fins offense in check all day.
First round draft pick Aqib Talib was impressive in the secondary, recording a tackle and two pass defenses in his debut. Don’t be surprised to see Talib in the starting lineup opposite Ronde Barber for the Bucs in ’08.
The betting trends suggest that NFL bettors should be backing the Bucs in this intra-conference exhibition.
These two teams hooked up last year in Tampa Bay, with the Bucs winning that game 13-10. The Buccaneers have only lost one preseason game at home dating back to the beginning of the ’05 preseason. The Patriots have had a mixed bag of results in their recent exhibitions. They have gone 2-2 ATS and SU each of the last three years.
New England currently sits as modest 1-point favorites in this preseason showdown with the ‘total’ now sitting at 34.5.
