    Need A Good Teaser? Check In Here!

    I honestly don't see this 7 way teaser (6 pts) losing. Looks so good!

    Green Bay Packers -2.5
    Seattle Seahawks +9.0
    New Orleans Saints +12.0
    New England Patriots -3.0
    Arizona Cardinals +3.0
    Jacksonville Jaguars +9.0
    New York Giants -0.5

    $100 to win $900

    I feel super confident with it, hopefully kills and I can hedge with the night game.

    everything looks good until the games start and reality sets in. Would agree that it looks strong though - may tail since I made a ton of $ in college ball.

    I don't generally like going over the ML on teaser, like you did on Cards.
    I'm on Cards-2.5 myself but if they lose, chances are they lose by more than 3. Would rather go with Kansas-3.

    I normally don't either...but I just like them so much in this spot. Wierd thing is I'm worried about Pats.

    I'm going the opposite way on most of these, I made a "fade parlay" for fun just to see what it would look like:

    WagerType:PARLAY (7 TEAMS)
    Date: Team:
    Oct 11 NFL [452] TAMPA BAY -3EV
    Oct 11 NFL [462] PHILADELPHIA -275
    Oct 11 NFL [463] ST. LOUIS +365
    Oct 11 NFL [466] CINCINNATI -3-110
    Oct 11 NFL [468] DETROIT +3EV
    Oct 11 NFL [470] DALLAS +9-115
    Oct 11 NFL [473] SAN FRANCISCO +6½-105

    Just asking here. What is the logic on this? Couldn't it be viewed as a stronger play used to increase the odds of the teaser?

    Thanks and good luck.

    Crossing through zero on a teaser like taking the Cardinals vs the Lions doesn't make mathematical sense. Lions +8.5 would be a better bet.

    Just personal preference I guess. Normally I use teams with a higher spread (like Kansas and pats this week) when I'm pretty confident they will win but perhaps not cover that high spread. I've played Cards as a single but if they lose the game, chances are it will be with more than 3 points. I rather drop big favorites mot high spreads down to ML och use big underdogs who I like and put some extra points on them(like Minnesota last week).

    If the teams screws up, I can still get a backdoor cover on a Minnesota+13, but it's hard to win if Arizona screws up with only +3. Capish?

    Yeah. I see what you guys are saying. I just have a hard time convincing my brain that making the chalk stronger is not necessarily the best play.

    Thanks for the insight.

    I can guarantee you this teaser won't hit. One of these will fall today.
