Giants' Burress game-time decision
Football Betting Lines
11/21/2008 - East Rutherford, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress is suffering from a right hamstring injury and is considered a game- time decision to play Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals.
Burress, who was hurt during practice on Wednesday, was limited in his team workout on Friday.
Sunday will mark a return to the site where the Giants won the Super Bowl following last season when they toppled the New England Patriots. Burress caught the winning 13-yard TD pass from Eli Manning with 35 seconds remaining in the game.
"It is definitely a place where it was a record setting event and it was definitely a great experience for us, a great time for us, as young men and being able to accomplish dreams for our organization, but it is the regular season and none of that stuff really can help us or does anything for us come Sunday," said Burres. "I am pretty sure we will get off the plane and enjoy the weather first of all and go out and try to get a win."
Giants head coach Tom Coughlin officially listed Burress as questionable for the game.
"Nothing new except he is a little better than he was the day before," Coughlin said. "He did some things. But it will wind up being a game time, I'm sure."
Burress is the Giants' leading receiver with 35 catches for 454 yards and four touchdowns.
Running back Brandon Jacobs is listed as probable for Sunday's game due to a right knee injury. He missed practice earlier this week because of the injury.

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.
