    Thursday Night 7pts Teaser Steelers +1, Under 50?

    How is this teaser
    Steelers +1
    Total Under 50?

    or Steelers +1
    Total over 36?

    I think the Under 50 is better. what do you guys think?

    why not play a 6 pointer instead. your crossing through 0 with the steelers+1 which is a huge no no in teasers.

    teasars are parlays in disguise. dont bet them. you lose value. you are better off betting the sides straight up.

    yes you get more wiggle room. but you only win if you win both bets. consider this case:

    bet A wins by 10 points
    bet B loses by 10 points

    you would have gone 1-1 and broken even, but instead you lost because you made teasar.

    I agree that teasers are ultimately a losing proposition, but if you're going to tease this game do your 7 point teaser and get over 36. Steelers +1 and over 36. It was asked why not do 6 points? Cause 37 is the most common total in the NFL so getting 36 is worth the little extra juice. I predict, 26-21 Steelers. BOL!

    Pick the under 50. Thats a winning ticket. I am doing the same but a 6 pt teaser.

    Obviously you'd lose the juice, but I think your point is well taken.
