Football Betting Lines
02/20/2007 -
Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy
announced Monday he will return for the 2007 season.
Dungy kept his options open after leading the Colts to the Super Bowl title
over the Chicago Bears, but made his decision definite, speaking Monday in
advance of this weekends NFL Scouting Combine,
"Every year is different," Dungy said Monday. "Certainly, there was a lot of
emotion (after the Super Bowl). You never really know until it's all over. I
try to sit back at the end of the year and look at everything, where we're
going to the future."
There was speculation that Dungy might decide to retire if the Colts won
Super Bowl XLI, but the morning after Indy's 29-17 victory over Chicago,
Dungy gave all indications that he would return to the sideline for the 2007
season. Less than a month later, he made it official.
"Obviously, you want to come back," Dungy said. "You want to defend the title.
We've got such a great group of guys, that that's eventually what draws you
back every year."
Dungy just completed his fifth season as Colts head coach. He has a record of
60-20 in the regular season and a playoff mark of 7-4.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
