Tonight’s Monday Night Football match up has the Atlanta Falcons hosting the N.Y. Giants at the Georgia Dome. The Atlanta Falcons QB situation is still up in the air between Joey Harrington and Brian Leftwich. Leftwich has injured his ankle so the starting QB tonight will be Harrington. Harrington is a QB that throws recklessly around the field; he’s got almost the same amount of touchdowns as interceptions. The Falcons will have one of the best corner coverers back tonight, CB DeAngelo Hall, who should be all over the Giants WR Plaxico Burress. The Falcons have a horrible running game that’s combined for 1 touchdown. RB W.Dunn has 74 carries for 249YDS with 1 TD and J.Norwood has 35 carries for 147YDS and no TDs. They’re going to be in tough against the Giants defense tonight. The best player on the Falcons is WR R.White who has 21REC for 356YDS and only 1 TD, what’s with that! Their other surprise player is TE A.Crumpler who has 18REC for 194yds AND 1TD.

The N.Y. Giants are coming off a big win against the N.Y. Jets and are looking to forge forward in the NE East. The Giants have won their last 3 games. QB Eli Manning had a bad first half last week but managed 13 of 25 passes with 1 TD. New rookie CB Aaron Ross saved the Giants by returning two interceptions for touchdowns to give them the lead and eventual win. WR Plaxico Burress is Manning’s main man down the field with 7 TDs but is questionable for tonight’s game. Other injuries may play a big part in the outcome of this game. WR S.Smith is out and RB D.Ward is also questionable.

Bottom Line: We all know that the Falcons don’t have the offense were used to, especially going up against the Giants defense. When under pressure QB Harrington throws recklessly, so look for lots of interceptions. The Giants may be without their usual offense that’s got them three wins in a row.

With this being said, it’s going to be a low scoring game. Go for the UNDER!

Toronto Maple Leafs at Buffalo Sabres

Under 6½ -105
Bet this NHL game at SBG Global

T he Sabres are off to another good start this season. With the loss of Daniel Briere & Chris Drury to free agency, many wondered if the Offensive output would struggle. Short answer=YES! However, the Buffalo defense has chipped in nicely of late with good contributions from Campbell & Spacek. The Power Play is starting to heat up as well. On the flip side, the Leafs are allowing close to 5 Goals a game and don't seem to be able to stop anyone on the defensive side(except the Islanders). But, the Leafs still bring a formidable Offense to the table w Sundeen, Antropov & Blake. The matchup here to watch is the Leafs Forwards vs a stout Sabre Defense.

Botton Line: With that said, it would appear to many that this game will go way Over the total, but i see a very competitive-low scoring game at HSBC Arena tonight. The Leafs just might win this game, but it won't be easy .

My call is for the game to go UNDER 6.5! Final Toronto 3 BUF 2
