Uh oh.  It's the return of Pregame co-owner Johnny Detroit.  Let the hijinx ensue.  Host Gill Alexander welcomes back Johnny and, of course, MegaPod pillars Marco D'Angelo and Vegas Runner to break down this weekend's NFL betting board in a fashion that you won't quite find anywhere else.  That we can assure you.  The crew examines the entire slate, but keys in on the Atlanta Falcons at San Francisco 49ers, Chicago Bears at Philadelphia Eagles, New Orleans Saints at Carolina Panthers, Arizona Cardinals at Seattle Seahawks, Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills, and NY Giants at Detroit Lions.  And, our two staple questions are answered, as well.  Which big favorite is most likely to lose outright and which game is the least bettable of the bunch?  Plus, VR makes a promise, on Friday's Betting Dork (December 20, 2013).
