Do I run 'The Wheel' this week?

I'm looking at this week, and I don't see a lot of games I like with the lines out there. I'm wondering if this is the week to run 'The Wheel', where you take the one 'lock' game +7 points, and take EVERY team with them in teasers. So, let's say you think NO +9 is a winner, you take them with the Rams +4, and you also take them with KC +10. The beauty is that at the semi-worst you lose juice one way on a game, but you could easily win both sides if it ends up within 7 of the line. Do this with every game and you could/should do well, if games are as close as you think. Of course, the BIG BIG BIG downside is that if your 'lock' game loses, you lose EACH AND EVERY BET YOU MAKE.

So here's my question: what game out there is your 'lock', if you could add 7 pts. to the spread?

*I'm not saying I'm definitely doing this, but it is an interesting idea. Let me know if I am completely off my rocker here :shrug:.*

I appreciate the comments, and yes, those are two of the games I'm looking at, but the bigger question is: does The Wheel seem like a good idea for this week? What does everyone think about the week as a whole, to me it looks like a 'close to the line' kind of week.

Either way. LET'S GET 'EM :toast:

Make you KEY game the Monday night game and open up even more possibilities :0corn

Plus, you don't have to take a bad hit if you lose your KEY game, just bet in smaller increments to equal your normal bet or larger than normal bet.

Dallas as a pick..

Grossman and I am sure the locker room is divided over that..

Washington is going to give up.. Dallas has been playing their ASS off against some good teams..

thats why I said them...early game...and playing a backup QB vs a team playing well:0074

How can you lose them all before you get there when you're betting both sides in a tease? You're shooting for middles. Maybe I'm in the wrong thread :scared

If you wheel the Mon game and all lose before you get to Mon...what do you have left:shrug:

dunclock you cant lose every bet before monday be cause the monday game is in every bet.


if chicago is your wheell game then you have chicago in every tease - 2.

chicago -2
no +9

chicago -2
baltimore+ 5

and so on and so on

downside to this is if chicago dosent cover the 2 you are broke and will start calling your self stupid.
not a very smart play in my opinion but certainly a huge gamble.

I like the idea, I just don't know if I have a lock. If you did all 2 team 6 pt tease you wouldn't even lose juice, they pay 1-1. If you lose your lock then there goes 30 different bets. Still very interesting idea.
