Thoughts on this teaser

I like Buffalo +7.5 against Jacksonville. NFL teams usually bounce back after routs if they have any kind of talent. Look at Denver, winning 2 straight after getting drilled by Detroit.

I do think Jax will win, but if Buffalo can make some plays on special teams and get a lead, they have a shot at the upset. Facing the Jax offense will be light years away from what they faced Sunday night.

Giants should beat Minnesota.

looks very good to me, in fact i might even be playin it. . . the bills are good at home (of course not against NE) but on the road it will be hard for them to get to 17 points against a stingy jax D. . . 7.5 is too much to lay but not with the teaser. . .

Giants should handle minnesota, if they can slow down the run game, which has been hard to do this year against minnesota. . . but i look for them to get an early lead and force T jackson to beat them through the air, will do some more capping during the week, but i think you just gave me a winner , even though im not much of a teaser player because its hard enough to win one game let alone two in the same bet. . . there is a reason its called a teaser

i like this one a lot specifically with both these good teams being at home.

Yeah exactly guys, you have two teams who are better than their competition and you're @ HOME.

Good teams too.. Let's cash

The Giants are someone I'm considering in a tease, as well as Colts or Texans. Minnesota won't be able to run it down their throat like they could vs Oakland, I watched that whole game and they basically ran at will, some trick plays thrown in there which they've exposed against a crappy team.

I think the Giants can actually do some stuff on the ground here. I think this will play out similar to the Packer/Vike game with the exception of Peterson out obviously. Vikings have to defend the pass first and foremost, so I think they'll give up decent yardage on the ground and be susceptible to some big play actions later in the game.

Tough spot for Buffalo, they would need one of those Jaguar let downs of playing solid against good teams, and losing to the mediocre ones. I don't necessarily think that's going to happen, the Jaguars have been more consistent this year. I'd like to know if Marshawn Lynch is back though.

Jags have screwed me in the past. I hope that doesn't happen here.

I like the teaser, imgv94.

I also like the Giants laying the points, -7, -10, whatever. Hopefully I'll even find some alt lines, something like Giants -13 +240 or whatever. I think the Giants will totally roll the Vikings without Adrian Peterson. Putting the Giants in teasers is also a good play, just in case the Vikings get some lucky breaks to keep it close.

I like the Bills +7 1/2, but I'll take the Jags -1 1/2 in a teaser like this. Play it both ways and hope for a middle.

5 dimes has a prop: will the final score difference be greater than 8 1/2. i think it's only on monday and sunday night games though.

I don't know what is more bizarre, the prop itself or that you're mentioning it in this thread. lmao

GV,
Really like this teaser here bro... These two teams were good to me last week, so I think I'll try to ride em one more time! Best of luck with this play! Any other games you have your eye on for Sunday?

I like the Jags teaser, mostly because it crosses both the 3 and 7. Not too sure about the Giants one, though. With the exception of the Packers game, a team they match up horribly with, they haven't played that poorly on the road. I'd rather tease the Jags game with Bengals +7.5, which also crosses both the 3 and 7, and the fact that the Bengals are still pretty underrated.

buffalo may come out with the upset

I've been excited about this teaser all week. GL imgv.

NYG should cover, but I've teased them as well (open). If I was going to tease a second game it would be to get the Pats under 17.

KidDynamite · 11-21-07, 04:21 PM

Marshawn Lynch is doubtful. That means BUF has no offense. JAX has a very strong O with Garrard back. I think JAX has no problems covering -7.5 let alone -1.5.

NYG and MIN are both up and down teams. NYG should pass all over them. The D should be able to contain Chester Taylor much easier than AP. MIN has always been terrible at NYG. NYG to cover -1 looks safe.

Personally and thats the key word personally, I have some fears with this teaser but I've learned to bet with my head and not my heart.

My fears lie in Jacksonville, I've had some bad luck with them in the past two seasons they have fukked me numerous times. They win when I bet against them, lose when I'm on them etc.

There is no reason in the world IMO, that the Bills defeat a playoff team on the road. They simply dont have the offense to do it. They are ranked 20th or worse in every category and have an abysmal offense on the road. If they win then I know I'm just cursed.

Giants game.

Giants are a very good balanced team, Giants have the better defense and home field which is a double whammy that usually doesn't fail. Minnesota is 1-4 on the road this season and has lost to teams that were worse than the Giants who have won 6 out of their last 7 games.

Giants have a better offense and defense and their @ home.

Hopefully it works out , it should but you never know.
