I'm back with my 10pt teaser plays. A very successful post for the last several years.

TN +14

I think this is too many points to grab against a rookie QB. TN will be an improved team this year and their defense should be able to keep in lock step with Chicago's defense. I see a low scoring game and could be way wrong but 14 is too much to cover.

AZ +16.5

This is a fade of Buffalo and a play on Arizona all at the same time. The Buffalo offense will rely on the legs of Allen which always ends up a disaster of him getting hurt somewhere along the way during the season. The AZ O should be vastly improved with Connor, Murray and Harrison leading the way. Their defense will still be a problem but they should hang in the game to the end. I remember the last time I had these thoughts and Buffalo mopped the floor with AZ, hopefully not a repeat.

LAR +14.5

This one to me stood out the most and was the cornerstone of this wager. I see another classic game today and come on who doesn't like seeing the QB matchup once again. Great way to close the night and go to bed on a high for winning. I kept my reasoning short, I'm swamped and KO is less than 30 away.

I'll be tracking my teasers in a season long thread instead of a weekly post in Bet The House.

These have been historically $$$$

I'll move my Bet The House post here and give commentary.

None of these games were ever in doubt in this teaser. TN and AZ both blew 17-3 leads and LAR had the lead 20-17 with 2 minutes left. Unfortunately all of these teams lost. AZ was the only one to cover the regular spread and the Rams lost in OT as DET scored a TD on the first drive.

Record 1-0 +100

Nice hit!

Wow I missed this post. Won't miss it again. Nice hit.

Week 2

Three Team Ten Point Teaser

NO +16 - I think the current line is an over reaction to what took place last week with Dallas winning at Cleveland. I watched both games last week. Carolina is still really bad even with all the upgrades. Dallas took advantage of a weak Cleveland team. Until Cleveland moves on from Watson he will continue to be there albatross. He has robbed Cleveland of not only money but has set this franchise back for a long time. I'll take my chances of not getting beat by three scores.

TB +17.5 - Mayfield coming off his likely career best game, is it a sign for more to come? Week 1 Campbell played tight and didn't take as many chances as he did last year. Granted it's only one week but there was a massive change in philosophy. I think this may be a lot closer than the current 7.5 line and will gladly add ten to it.

LAR +11 - Ask yourself just one question. Who could AZ beat by 12 points? Would the Rams name come up? To even see AZ favored in this game is a gift to add ten to it.

Good Luck

Good Luck My Friend!!!

Good looking teaser...bol Freak!

I guess the Rams were a team that AZ could beat by 12 or more points. The other two won their game STRAIGHT UP.

0-1 -130

Overall 1-1 -30

Not sure what happened to my post with last week teaser play which was a winner and I'm miffed to how it's gone!

For this weeks play it starts with Thursday Night

Dallas +5 - This is the kind of team the Cowboys need to play to right the ship. While the Giants ransacked Cleveland, I've said all along Cleveland isn't a good team as long as Watson is the QB and on the team. He is toxic.

LA Rams +13 - Catching a struggling team that just can't get out of it's own way. Last time I used the Rams they were run over by the Cardinals, do I dare say who can Chicago beat by 14?

SF Pick - Simple call to use against New England. If New England goes to SF and wins SU I deserve to lose. That win over Cincinnati doesn't look so great anymore does it?

Let's get that paper!

Needed the extra points with the Rams but in the end a winner.


2-1 +70

Really 3-1 +170 I still have no idea what happened to my post from week 3 :(

Thanks for these. Missed last week but I will be back in action this week.

Week 5

Three Team 10 Point Teaser

Baltimore +7.5 - I love Baltimore at -2.5 why wouldn't I at +7.5. Baltimore is the all around better team.

SF +3 - This and the next team are just a no brainer.

Seattle +3 - As with SF, both teams are vastly superior and this venue for an east coast team is a tough place to play.

Running out of time for a big write up but this should be a bankroll booster.

2-2 -60

Week 6

Going to keep it with just the play today as time is very limited.

JAX +11
PHI +1
NYG +13.5

2-3 -190

10 PT TEASER

DET +12
PHI +7
PIT +12

I see a tight back and forth type game with the DET/MN.
PHI + anything is a bonus, they should win this SU
PIT defense and a lack of a true offense from the Jets makes this an easy call.

JAX cost me last week in what was a dismal performance that made Williams look like an MVP. Bears are still frauds.

Analysis was spot on for every game and delivered a winner...........

3-3 -90

Rare Teaser with NCAAF mixed in with NFL

3-3 -90 or 4-3 +10 depending on how you look at it.

LSU +11 - Think they win this SU but Kyle Field at night is still a tough place to play in the SEC
Wisconsin +16.5 - I still believe that Penn St is a paper tiger. How they made it this far up the ratings is beyond me. This is a statement game for WI and Fickell. Likely his biggest game as a coach at WI.
Detroit -1.5 - If they lost at home or only win by 1 over TN at home, this deserves to lose. Not a reason to overthink this one.

3-4 -220

DET -2 Same reasoning as yesterday.
PHI +12.5 - Believe wrong team is favored here.
DEN -1 - Another one of those, if they lose SU, I deserve to lose.

4-4 -120

Never in doubt.

For week 9 let's go with the following:

AZ +8
IND +15.5
KC +1

It took the market a while to make AZ the favorite and for good reason. Look at who they've played compared to CHI. When this line came out I jumped all over AZ as the dog. I'll take the TD+ although I'd be surprised if I need it.

IND they made the right decision to put Flacco as the SQB, he gives them a much better chance of winning and doesn't take the insane chances that Richardson takes. I still believe that Richardson was the wrong choice for IND and so far it's played out as such. This doesn't mean he won't be a good QB in the future but he has a lot to overcome. MN may be in the midst of their season fade, can see this as a FG game.

KC pretty simple choice, they keep rolling along on MNF.
