Chicago Bears 2010 Training Camp Preview

Football Betting Lines

07/22/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) -

REPORT DATE: July 30th

SITE: Olivet Nazarene University, Bourbonnais, IL

CAMP OBJECTIVES: Every minute the Bears offense spends on the practice field in advance of their Week 1 date against the Lions is critical. New coordinator Mike Martz must have the attack clicking once the team leaves Bourbonnais, which means Jay Cutler and the team's less-than-respected wide receiving corps and offensive line need to show a comfort level with the pass-happy scheme. Getting running backs Matt Forte' and Chester Taylor involved will be key as well. The defense, now under the tutelage of ex-Buccaneers head coach Rod Marinelli, needs to make strides after struggling throughout 2009. Linebacker Brian Urlacher must show sufficient recovery from the injury that ended his '09 season in Week 1, and new Bear Julius Peppers must set the tone for a defensive line that was altered drastically in the offseason. If tackle Tommie Harris can remain healthy throughout camp, it will be a bonus. The secondary is less than set as camp begins, with cornerbacks Zackary Bowman and Corey Graham battling for a spot opposite Charles Tillman, and safeties Danieal Manning, Craig Steltz, and Chris Harris all trying to secure jobs.

PRESEASON SCHEDULE:

Aug 14 - at San Diego, 9:00 PM Aug 21 - vs. Oakland, 8:30 PM Aug 28 - vs. Arizona, 8:30 PM Sep 2 - at Cleveland, 8:00 PM

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
