My rant for the day (FALCONS!!)

[infamousbacardi]

I thought the Falcons +4 looked pretty good...I mean, if they lost, I thought, 3 point loss....HOWEVER...being safe, why not tease it up to 10.5...surely, they can't lose by more than 10 to a Dallas team that went to OT against the Chiefs...well...boom...cost me a huge teaser worth $1k when every other game had hit at noon start...thanks Falcons...and, if you're a Falcons fan...today, it's not personal...but I hate you. FUMING on the Falcons +10.5 right now...red hot.

I here you man, I felt the Falcons were the right play here. That zone defense is f***ing horrendous!

[stocker08]

Yeah, I had about 4 units split between -5.5 and ML. I had an awful day with another 3.5 units on the bears ML.

I might be a degenerate gambler, but I am putting the book down for a while...

I think I'll be joining you for a while on that one bud...I just can't stop...maybe the way to go is to try and build up your coins here at SBR...then cash them in for free plays at your real bookie for like $50 or whatever...then try and build that bankroll up in real money...at least then...you have, at least, some feeling of action...with no real money at stake?!?! Not sure that feeds the degenerate monster I am though!

[Seattle Slew]

I also went down with Atlanta, although I really didn't like them much in this spot but thought Dallas might be flat off the bye week and they were.

Atlanta should have been up 10 to 14 points in the first half but screwed the game up. Their defense is weak and their offensive coordinator (ex Bills dope Mike Mularkey) will get them beat even with Ryan with his shitty strategy.

[UntilTheNDofTimE]

Yea they costed me over 2 g's in teaser for a -5-- day vs +2000

[zubzub]

You people are playing parlays

its the squarest first and last step towards despair

[ipickwinners]

why play teasers?? u do know teasers mean the books are teasing u because in most cases the line does not matter, as this game was evident...in fact there was only 1 game this sunday where the line mattered within 2 points... line doesnt matter boys

falcons burnt me hard today! i had them at +4 and +11 on a teaser, of course they were the only team that didnt cover the teaser WOW!!! i had them at $50 for the +4 HOWEVER! the teaser would of been a nice $300! im pretty pissed also!

im getting my ass owned in football this year, every week i lose money and i seem to make it back in hockey. i think i should lay it off to be honest, cause im getting screwed left right and centre in this shit.

why are you playing teasers? what value do u see in them?

[zubzub]

damn but thats among the prettiest avatars I've seen here....

have to go back and give some points for this


how many points do I have?

Oh fukk it.....I too lost on ATL because I think Dallas sucks

but they played well today. I also lost on Carolina bcuz they should have been hungry but they are far worse a team than I ever dreamed possible

and I lost NYG-7 and teased to +3 and also lost Minny-6 but won the ones you'd expect. IND NE SD GB.

Its mainly straight bets people, you won't survive on parlays. Anyone who says to you they are sharp and plays parlays is either lying or a god and there hasn't been any gods here since 1962.

[stats13]

the falcons are absolutely awful on the road, even at home they are mediocre

teasers would have helped in 3 gms this week in the 12 nfl gms on sunday, so 1 in 4 gms: (6 pt teasers)

niners +9/texans +3, both winners
vikings +13/steelers even, both winners
dolphins +12.5/saints -.5, both winners

yeah i thought once atlanta scored they would be ok but then a turnover and it was over

[Chi_archie]

was a rough day for alot of nfl bettors

[100Dimes]

Excuses excuses, I bet on ATL as my pick with analysis last week and new better then to put any money on them. Dallas is loaded with talent that can expload any given time. The Atl game was on live tv last week, if you didn't pick up on how they played last week you deserved to lose...

[ZBOIZ]

My Saints will thrash the FALCONS!!

My slant exactly! 10 minute successful drive and then the over think it play calling! Keep pounding them with the run game!

[pavyracer]

Play the Falcons when they face a running team offense and play against the Falcons when they face an air it out offense.

PS. Also this applies with under/over.

vikings +13/steelers even, both winners
dolphins +12.5/saints -.5, both winners

and the 4th win of the wk by teaser:

washington +7, 8, or 9 all teased up by 6, got the cover

i would know, i had wash +15 (+9 straight +the 6 pt teas)

yeah, but teasers dont help ppl win

[ZBOIZ]

Saints 42

Falcons 21

I don't know what the slapping head smiley is about - in Nine of thirteen games teasers were irrelevant, which is pretty typical of any NFL weekend. ipickwinners is right, teasers for the most part don't help people win. It's not as if the bookies came up with the idea of teasers to help you out!

[100Dimes]

If you know what your doing, teasers WILL help you, However the type is very important, along with the right games. If you dont believe me take a look at my record / sheet. I primarily play on the 13.5 pt teasers at -143. Nothing wrong with laying a little extra juice to give your games a solid lock. Last week was a breeze with the tease. If you couldnt make $ last week you probably shouldnt be gambling!
