Just wondering how most people bet on football?

straight bets or teasers? I hate doing straight bet's because honestly I don't know if a team is gonna cover a 6 point spread. I just know that they are gonna win the game, so for me it's teasers in football and basketball every bet. I just pick one team, that I'm highly confident in and make 10 teaser bets off that one team. Just wondering if that is bad strategy on my part? Also thought's on this bets I'm about to make.
saints+1 ohio state+2
saints+1 falcons+9
saints+1 colts+3
saints+1 49ers-pick
saints+1 chargers-2 in a half
saints+1 michigan state-1

You won't make money doing teasers, especially not in the long run. Just bet the games straight. There's a lot of people you can learn from on this site. Don't just blindly tail them though. Over time, you learn how to find value in certain lines.

One of the games I really like this week is the Ravens +3 at the Patriots. I don't think the Pats are that good; not because they lost Moss, but because their defense stinks. Vegas made them a 3 point fave at home coming off the bye, but you will notice that Baltimore is heavily juiced.
