It's becoming clear that I will not be able to do another Titans Playoff Parlay this year.

I was lamenting this fact when I suddenly realized that this weekend presented the opportunity for something even more inspiring: a Titans Teaser Wheel. I won't list all of the plays here (there will be 62 bets by week's end), but the basic idea is that you take a 6 point tease on the Titans -8 (down from -14) and every other bet on the board. That means both sides and both totals from every other game (4 bets per game x 15 games = 60 bets) and both totals bets from the hub game (60 bets +2 = 62 bets).
For those who have never felt the glory of a teaser wheel, you are guaranteed to make money as long as the hub bet (Titans -8) comes in. You'll win both teasers if the game finishes within 6 points of the number (above or below) and if the game finishes outside that range you'll push (minus the vig).
I would not recommend betting a large amount of money on a teaser wheel. $10 per bet for a $100 bettor is appropriate.
There is a small downside to making this play, but the upside is Jimmy Clausen-like. If the Titans take a dump and fail to cover 8 you lose. If they do cover 8, you get the following benefits:
-Money
-Action on every game
-A chance to root for a score range
-Odd looks from bar patrons
-Dozens of chances to say "teaser wheel"
Good luck.
