I bet almost all my money! I know, I know, money management, grind away at the bookie slowly, etc, etc.

But I couldn't help myself.  Especially after the Giants win, I was feeling all confident and shit.

Please tell me this teaser is money

  1.  Football - Philadelphia Eagles - spread -½ (-110)
        for the entire game held on Sep 7 at 12:00pm [pending]

  3.  Football - Indianapolis Colts - spread -2½ (-110)

it should win, Carolina will probably give you the biggest scare, but then again maybe not.  Good Luck

all teams are at home, all teams are playoff bound, all teams playing against sub-500 teams (last year)

if carolina continues its crappy-ness on offense (one of the last in the league at converting 3rd down), then that SD defense should take care of business

Yeah....you're only reason to worry is the Eagles....and this is coming from an Eagles fan.  Phi is by far the superior team but only 3-6 over the last 9 season openers.  Also..area is being hit by a hurricane today, and the Linc is hosting the Temple game today, which could force both teams to round the ball a lot with terrible field conditions.  This takes away from the Eagles biggest D strength - pass rush and secondary coverage.  This hides the Rams biggest weakness on D...inexperience in the secondary.

don't judge.  I deserve just as much respect if I were betting 5 dollars. 
All that matters is if you pick winners, now how much you bet.  Any dumbfuck can type in a number on the screen.

$450 is how much I have (doubled up thru the Giants), and I started with a roll of $250.  $250 is all the Greek lets you deposit in the first month, so BACK OFF.

oh you didn't know ? this forum is filled with millionaires !!

no your amount means nothing....do your thing, goodluck on your teaser !

i love the posts where people have 8-10 games and say they have $10,000 on each game

i would not be on the internet if i had that status...i would be getting head in a suite in vegas !!!

No offense JJ but exactly what's you bank roll then?  At least he is being honest about it and don't post ridiculous amount. 

GL to you Spek!

Personally, I hate playing teaser.  I rather spend 50 or 100 on a three teamer.

Yeah, man, not a fan of teasers one bit. 
 
Hard enough to get one game in the NFL right.......let alone 3.  Insane.
 
If I were you, since you are teasing down faves, I would bet all 3 dogs on the spreads.  No offense at all meant here, but it is highly probable that deep down you think each of these faves is overvalued on their straight spreads.  Therefore, take the spread dogs.  Yes, yes, you can always get back-doored, but take each dog if you are teasing down faves.

OK Spek, here is what I think..  Teasers can be lucrative if played correctly.  I currently have a 4 team 13 pt. teaser pending consisting of Giants+9 winner; Cincy+1.5 pending; SD+4 pending; Indy+3.5 pending. $180 to win $140 locked and loaded.. Money management is key to profit, play safe and play smart.. GL to all!

Very sage advice and a good hedge against the unexpected.  There's ALWAYS a stunner or two in week one.

Yep, usually is.
 
Wouldn't shock me one single bet if Chiefs beat Belickick outright, or if da Bears hang one on Indy outright.
 
Wouldn't surprise me one bit.

teasing all the dogs up is good idea, especially since its week one and shit happens.  its possible i could win both!  thatd be pretty sweet, but i dont wanna invest anymore money. 

for the record, im also on Det -3, Cincy -1.5 and KC +16 each $55 wins $50. 

I also have leans towards San Fran and Ny Jets, but $350+ in
pending wagers is enough for one afternoon.  Plus I wanna make sure I got some money for Monday Night.

thanks for the input guys. much appreciated!

If NE losing tomorrow wouldn't suprise you then you are devoid of any intelligence whatsoever.

Nothing shocks me in the NFL.
 
You are the one who is "devoid" of any intelligence if you believe that chalky NFL faves just win all the time.

I'm not saying they win all of the time.  I'm saying that if they LOST SU then I would at the very least be suprised.  For you to say you would not be suprised at all by a 15.5 point favorite at home losing SU then you are a bonehead pretending to have some kind of guru-esque experience in the NFL that nobody has.
 
Herman Edwards would be suprised if KC won tomorrow.
