08/15/2010 - Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Rookie Anthony Dixon carried the ball 21 times for 100 yards and a score, as the San Francisco 49ers dominated the Indianapolis Colts, 37-17, in the preseason opener for each club.

Alex Smith completed 3-of-9 passes for 37 yards and an interception for the 49ers, who are coming off an 8-8 season. Veteran offseason acquisition David Carr connected on 9-of-11 passes for 98 yards and a touchdown.

Michael Robinson rushed for a TD and Tony Curtis caught a touchdown pass for San Francisco, which recorded four interceptions on defense. Reggie Smith returned a pick 91 yards for a touchdown.

Peyton Manning connected on 8-of-10 passes for 91 yards for the Colts, who were in action for the first time since their 31-17 loss to the New Orleans Saints in Super Bowl XLIV.

Curtis Painter showed why Manning needs to stay healthy in order for Indianapolis to succeed. The Purdue product threw three interceptions while completing 9-of-19 passes for 64 yards. Fellow second-year pro Tom Brandstater connected on 8-of-12 passes for 34 yards, a touchdown, and interception.

Joseph Addai carried the ball five times for 11 yards and a score. Jacob Tamme caught three passes for 26 yards and a TD.

The Colts jumped out to a 10-0 lead in the first quarter on Adam Vinatieri's 21-yard field goal and Addai's seven-yard TD run.

Smith got the 49ers rolling when he picked off Painter's pass and returned it for a touchdown early in the second quarter. Robinson's three-yard TD run on the ensuing San Francisco possession gave the visitors a 14-10 lead.

Shane Andrus added a pair of field goals before the half to give the 49ers a 10-point cushion and the visitors cruised to victory in the second half.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
