    I'd take the Saints tonight. Imagining a 3pt win for Atlanta. But I wouldn't bet on it.

    my 3 team teaser of the week:

    NE -2
    SF -0.5
    DEN +0.0

    Only upset I potentially see happeing in TB over DEN but Manning has been good to me when I have DEN in my teasers.

    San Fran really doesn't play well vs St. Louis. At least it wasn't a sweat loss...you got whored early on and can move on to the next bet on the bet...I used to be a degen.

    Guys i'm going to retire....having such a bad season that i'm about to cry...

    Here are some of the memoriable losses

    Packers @ Seahawks….Russell Wilson INT/TD
    Pats @ Seahawks…..Russell Wilson 50 yard bomb for the win
    Bears vs Seahawks…..Russell Wilson killing me again
    Cowboys vs Eagles….Late punt return gives the eagles a backdoor cover
    Clev @ Oakland…..meaningless last play TD by Oakland destroys my bet and causes a push
    These are the ones that come to mind quickly…I’m positive there are countless others…college and pro….but I don’t feel like remembering the agony.

    Picking correctly week-to-week in the NFL is pretty much impossible. Those covers can turn on one fluke play.

    Man I feel you. It's crazy how such meaningless plays to the team, are so meaningful to guys like you and me. It's a game within the game. Only a few weeks left so I will try to stick it out.

    My latest teaser, so far so good:

    SF -0.0 vs MIA
    CHI +8.5 vs MIN (Campbell came through in the clutch :grin:)

    HOU-NE U62.5

    I'm going to fire on Cincy -4 @ Philly.

    I picked the cowgirls +3 @ cincy last week and won. But cincy has to have this win after losing last week. Plus cincy leads the league in sacks and philly has an o-line which rivals zona in terms of crap play. Only concern is that home teams on TNF have faired very well. Last week Broncos were able to buck the trend and i expect cincy to do the same.

    Any thoughts?

    I took a Cincy +1.5/u51 2T teaser.

    I like Cincy to win by a TD, though.

    The straight under of 45 is appealing, as well.

    If I didn't bet thru a bookie who doesn't offer teasers I'd be going that route often.

    The bookie doesn't use a wagering website? That seems like the simplified way to go these days(for the bookies).
