    I have Pats -1/Giants +8 in a teaser and I'm letting it ride.

    49ers don't blow teams out, and I think the Giants will win straight-up anyway.

    You want to hedge a two-team teaser? Really?

    A question... "Would you try a middle?" -- You say no?

    Definitely no unless you have reason to think SF -2 is a better play now than it was when you took the teaser.

    I bet most people in the free world do.

    That's why I'd consider a hedge.

    49ers by 10 wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.

    Why not wait and bet live or at halftime?

    It is around 69% for your teaser

    It is around 23% for the middle

    Live betting is the best way for you to middle, especially if you already have Giants +8.

    My guess is you can probably get SF + points somewhere during the game.

    Teasers are great for playoff games generally, because lines are very sharp.

    They're as sharp as it gets.

    Its the only way to get some sort of an advantage(if you can even call it that) sometimes.
