juuso · 10-16-06, 01:05 AM

Arizona +11.5 -106 , 2 units

Under 40 -105 , 3 units

bmac · 10-16-06, 08:25 AM

i am not sure but i am leaning towards the under.
I have the bears in a teaser from yesterday.

4 Team Teaser:
Denver Broncos -7½
San Diego Chargers -3
Seattle Seahawks +4
Chicago Bears -4½

MAB · 10-16-06, 08:29 AM

Chicago -11 (-110)

hometown · 10-16-06, 08:29 AM

Chicago -10.5
Over 40.5

I am not sold on the over and under laening to the over.

primo_skillz · 10-16-06, 08:31 AM

i think the over is a solid bet. as long as leinart coughs up the ball once or twice.

bmac · 10-16-06, 08:36 AM

K i am looking at another teaser....

Chicago -6.5
Under 47.5

thoughts?

Patrick McIrish · 10-16-06, 08:51 AM

Since you asked in the other thread I like the tease BMAC, especially teasing the under up, you are on the right side of the total IMO. The line you got on the Bears seems high though, you might need another out or so, just about everyone else is at 11.5 with the Bears. Did you bet this at BoDog? Hopefully it will make no difference but you are taking away from the value of teasing games if you are taking plays at a book that are a few points higher than other places. Know what I mean?

Good luck though, I really think the few points won't matter since you are still under 7 on it.

nosuzieno · 10-16-06, 08:57 AM

loved the bears and got on em early at -10.5...just wish everyone else didn't

-usually a recipe for a loss. can't touch total, but would lean over unless someone can supply great reasons why Chi doesn't at least score their average of 31...gl to all~

Philippe27 · 10-16-06, 08:59 AM

I got a 6 teams parlay, won 5 of 6 so far and I need Chicago to win by 11. Go Bears!!!
Chicago -11
KC-PIT Over 37
SD-SF Over 42.5
PHI-NO Over 46.5
New Orleans +3.5
Dallas -13

mandy · 10-16-06, 09:13 AM

chi ari

i see a defensive battle here. with a score of 20 to 13 bears. so i will take arizona and under

primo_skillz · 10-16-06, 10:03 AM

has anyone paid attention to recent mnf games? the under has won 6/6 times this season; no overs. do you stick with the trend here?

scottyy11 · 10-16-06, 10:36 AM

yep home team has been good last few weeks also...what is it 3str8? tooks the bears -11 2units but probably gonna spin out of it

Tchocky · 10-16-06, 10:56 AM

1. Bears -13 +106
2. Over 39 -123

Trends don't last forever. I think the general consensus is leaning towards the over.

Italia_NYC · 10-16-06, 01:52 PM

I'm not sure what to do with this one. As it stands, the Bears are 13.5 point favs. We all know the Bears are going to win, but will they win by two touchdowns? Of course they will, who am I kidding. I just talked myself right into betting the Bears strong tonight. Good luck to all!

primo_skillz · 10-16-06, 01:55 PM

but everyone keeps betting the over, doesnt that make more sense to bet the under if the line keeps moving.

EDIT: CHI - 12.0 at the site I am using, should it be taken?

josebla89 · 10-16-06, 02:27 PM

i think way to much credit is being given to the bears. they are a solid team no doubt but arizona is going to be at home with a huge crowd at their back. The last time i checked home advantage counts for something. i'm not saying the bears wont win but thats a big spread for being on the road. if it was in chicago you know they would be crushed but here the best way to go i think is a two team teaser

arizona +19.5 and under 47.5

primo_skillz · 10-16-06, 02:40 PM

credit is given where credit is due. this is a superbowl bound team.

ivyconniver · 10-16-06, 03:02 PM

I've been tossing this one back and forth all day, I think it's a no play on the side, leaning the over on the total.

Normally I'd take the home dog +10 or more any day of the week, but the bears are a very legitimate team this year

gummo · 10-16-06, 03:02 PM

Bought Chicago down to -10 (-127)
Under 40 (wish I had held out until it got to 41 now)

Flamers · 10-16-06, 03:17 PM

I think there is a real good chance in the 4th qtr, the cardinals will have the game tied or down by 3 points with a chance to win.

primo_skillz · 10-16-06, 03:22 PM

How can you even say this? Have you been watching this bears team play....

lol....I suppose anything is possible.

josebla89 · 10-16-06, 04:03 PM

All That I Am Saying Is That 12.5-13 Pts Is Alot For A Road Team To Cover In The Nfl Dont Matter Who You Are. Chicago Hasnt Blown And Everybody, They Should Have Lost To Minny Damn Rb Fumbled It To Get Them Back In The Game

primo_skillz · 10-16-06, 04:10 PM

But that's what ARZ is going to have to deal with tonight; fumbles and INTs on their part.

Italia_NYC · 10-16-06, 04:20 PM

Well, I'll give you one thing josebla89; the line is now -14. That is a lot of points to lay on the road, and I too am not sold on the Bears offense. That being said; I think the Cards will struggle massively tonight, especially without Fitzgerald and Edge not really doing much on the ground. I suspect, as usual, the Bears defense will score more points than their offense. That alone should cover the 14 points.

josebla89 · 10-16-06, 04:37 PM

I'm Telling You Do A 7pt Tease On The Spread +21 And Under 48 Way Better Off

Illusion · 10-16-06, 04:49 PM

Arizona +12.5 -107 (5 units)

Doc JS · 10-16-06, 05:46 PM

7 pt. tease for 2.5 units

Bears -6
Under 48

Doc JS

Pegasus · 10-16-06, 05:56 PM

Under 41

Augustus · 10-16-06, 06:26 PM

When everyone is on one side it's time to take the other!

Arizona cover +12.5
