11/19/2008 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - San Francisco 49ers quarterback Shaun Hill, New York Giants cornerback Aaron Ross and Arizona Cardinals kicker Neil Rackers have been selected as the NFC's top players for Week 11 of the NFL season.
Hill completed 15-of-20 passes for 213 yards with two touchdowns and ran for a score in San Francisco's 35-16 win over St. Louis. Hill racked up a career- high 142.3 passer rating while leading the Niners to a 35-3 halftime lead, the most first-half points scored by the club since 1992. San Francisco's 28 points in the second quarter tied the franchise mark for most scored in any quarter.
Ross had two interceptions, one he returned 50 yards for a touchdown, and added six solo tackles in the Giants' 30-10 win over Baltimore. It was Ross' second career two-interception game, and his second career touchdown. His second pick was a backbreaker, as it came with the Giants holding a 20-10 lead in the third quarter and Baltimore driving.
Rackers made 4-of-4 field goals and added two PATs in Arizona's 26-20 victory over Seattle. He was successful on field goals of 38, 48, 54 and 26 yards and has now made 13 straight.
Other players considered for the awards included Carolina running backs Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams, who rushed for 130 and 120 yards, respectively, in the Panthers' 31-22 win over Detroit; Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway, who had 16 tackles in a 19-13 loss to Tampa Bay; and Lions kicker Jason Hanson, who tied a franchise-record for longest field goal with his 56- yarder on Sunday.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
Be sure to log on to MySportsbook.com to check out the complete odds for NFL MVP as well as all of the new football related futures. With the popularity of NFL futures, these betting lines will be sure to change as the money comes in; get the early sports lines now.
