Once riddled by cancerous tumors, today, after having his foot amputated and 15% of his lung removed, Brian is cancer-free, is in the SuperContest, and joins the MegaPod, as well, to do something that all of us take for granted. Simply, to talk football. Chicago Bears at Dallas Cowboys, NY Giants at Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints at Green Bay Packers, San Francisco 49ers at NY Jets, Carolina Panthers at Atlanta Falcons. Which is the big favorite most likely to lose outright and which game should you steer clear of at all costs? It's all on a very special Friday Betting Dork (September 28, 2012).

Host Gill Alexander welcomes back NationalFootballPost.com NFL Analyst and Writer Joe Fortenbaugh to the weekly roundtable to break down this weekend's matchups from a betting perspective, with Pregame Pros Marco D'Angelo and Vegas Runner.

When the talk finally gets around to the New England Patriots at Denver Broncos, the audio returns to its pristine form, only to suddenly cut off when the chronically Tebow-fading D'Angelo steps up to the mic.

That, and the Pittsburgh Steelers at San Francisco 49ers, Baltimore Ravens at San Diego Chargers, Dallas Cowboys at Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Cincinnati Bengals at St. Louis Rams, and Carolina Panthers at Houston Texans, the big favorite most likely to lose outright, and game with least value on the spread. But if it's a full dissertation on the Pats/Broncos line movement you want and the single most definitive Tebow stat there is, this is the place to be, on Friday's Betting Dork (December 16, 2011)
