Starting off with these. I don't know if I'll add much more, at least not until I can finally get a line on the Chargers (saw a brief -10 and I think that anything under a 7 looks good?teased down to -3 and I think it looks superb); still not sure if, when and where that game will be played.

I think that a lot of people believe that teasers are real sucker bets but I went 9-0 (9-0-2 really, with 2 pushes mixed in) on my teasers last week, needing the extra points on both the Saints and Redskins. Gets my teaser stats well into the plus and they now account for 71% of my profit from the season. I only went 2-4 on spreads last week and they really need to improve for me if I'm going to do any serious damage the rest of the way. For now, I'm just happy to be up for the year; baseball is taking up most of my handicapping time so I'm doing okay considering that I'm investing minimal time so far.

Saints at -3 and Giants -3 (teased) look to be my best bets for week 8. I have to start being a little clearer, in these posts, about just what my best bets are; they're doing well this season but, again, baseball has prevented me from doing much analysis or disclosure in my NFL posts. That should improve once baseball is done but I really need to do some catching up on some important trends, angles, injuries, etc. I hope to restart a decent system that I've used in the past but it takes quite a bit of time so week 9 is the earliest that I might get that going.

Enough said.

Lions have looked bad on the road and the Bears clobbered the Lions the past 2 times that they've visited Chicago. Need the defense to play a good game for a change.

Might do something else with that Chargers pick.
Colts and Pats might make for good combos (teased to -0.5 and -10 respectively) but lots are arguing that they'll be looking ahead to next week and might not bring their "A" games. Colts should still certainly win against this floundering Panthers club that's done squat so far at home, and the Patriots should win by double figures even if they play a poor game..."poor" for them, anyways.

Still trying to decide if either the Packers or Bengals, teased to +10, are worth shots. Titans teased to under a field goal might be good, too. I think I'll pass on my leans towards the Vikings, Bills and Bucs, though; those 3 games look impossible to call.

Getting away with murder on the teaser show so far this season. Next week I'm looking at mostly some spread action as I think the Redskins, Patriots, Cowboys and Steelers all look good. Steelers likely make a few teasers as a -3 there looks real sweet. Already got the Pats and 'Boys at -3. Skins, too, just for less coin; still, I think they'll want to take this week's frustrations out on somebody and they'll have a good opportunity facing the Jets.

P.S. I'm up this week. Season, too.

thanks rusty
guess I got time to follow this stuff a little closer now with BB ending.

adding:

2H packers +155 0.6/0.93


They look to be the better team on the season and certainly tonight. Bronc's offense is doing squat. Plus the Pack start with the ball in the 2nd half.

That's it 'til week 9.

Redskins, Saints, Patriots, Cowboys and Steelers are on my list for then. Chargers will be too, I figure.
