    NFL season is about to start! Here is some key info for your betting!

    So I found this information to be interesting and maybe/hopefully useful (please correct the numbers if you find them to be wrong, but this is what I found)


    Since 2003, lines -2, -2.5, -3 have overall been losers in the long run:
    line...........................Favorite team wins........................................ ..Favorite line wins
    -3...... 555 300-255-0... 54.1%....................... 1.87 228-283-44............. 44.6%
    -2.5.... 150 79-71-0...... 52.7%....................... 1.79 69-81-0................. 46.0%
    -2...... 42 22-20-0........ 52.4%........................ 1.33 19-20-3................. 48.7%

    break it down to home teams favored by those numbers and road teams favored by those numbers. you're onto something but need it more defined.

    That is exactly why you Tease the Dog, of course with proper handicapping!

    Tease Dogs +1.5 to +2.5


    This way your are crossing 4 of the 5 key numbers(3,4,6, and 7). Sometimes they are hard to find, but it increases your odds of having a positive outcome.

    those stats are meaningless since the extra point is no longer automatic.
