We will have the late breaking NFL injuries for fantasy football (fantasy football betting odds) and betting in just a moment.

The Gridiron Spotlight

The Cowboys have been in turmoil over the past month, but they can still tie the rival Giants in the win column by beating them on the road on Sunday afternoon. The 5-3 (3-5 ATS) Cowboys, however, have been listed as big 9-point underdogs for this contest, with the total at 41 points. The 6-1 (5-2 ATS) Giants are on a two-game winning streak.

It’s been doom-and-gloom in New England and Indianapolis this season, but both of those teams will be looking to come up big on Sunday night and give their campaign a jolt of energy. The 3-4 (2-5 ATS) Colts have been listed by the oddsmakers as 6-point home favorites (with the total at 44). The Pats are 5-2 SU and 3-4 ATS so far this year.

Bill Tanner is the No. 1 college and NBA handicapper combined since 1995.  About 10 years ago, he lapped dinosaur “Doc” as the top Big 10 handicapper in the land. Oct. 25 it was Oregon and Penn State sweeping.  On Nov. 1 he hits Central Michigan as his only Platinum Play. Tuesday, Oct. 28 he nails Marshall, Oct. 18 he hit his only Platinum Play of the week in CFB on SMU, on Oct. 11 he goes 2-1 with Minnesota and Oklahoma State, Oct. 4 he sweeps with Wisconsin, Iowa, and Temple. Not only does Tanner have his one and only Double Platinum NFL Game of the Year on the Lions/Bears but he also has an NBA Platinum play on Minnesota/Oklahoma City

In other betting news, if somehow John McCain upsets Barack Obama, it’s bigger than Truman over Dewey or Lake Erie over the California Vulcans. The political betting odds make Obama a lock. Not even John McCain’s appearance on SNL or even fellow Bush attack dog Ben Affleck making a bigger fool out of Keith Olbermann than he makes of himself, nor the last second Obama and McCain interviews with Chris Berman on Monday Night Football will change destiny says Grandmaster sports handicapper Joe Duffy. Let’s just hope the promised “change” results in Draconian anti-gambling laws being reversed.
