Also, so you don't have to weed through it, The only two picks I have left are the top two wtih the NFL

Titans -5.5 and Cowboys -7

I'd be concerned about the Titans covering 3.
In fact, I see Detroit winning outright (+500).

I hedge a little on Detroit (ATS + ML).

Good luck!

I can't see Detroit getting close here after what happened to Tenn last week. It would be Detroit's Superbowl though. I figure they lose this one, and put all the marbles in for a winable game next week against Minny.

Detroit is garbage... They'll find a way to shoot themselves in the foot.

This more of a question to the pros here rather than a suggestion.

What about an IF bet?

If Lions +11.5 then Sea +12.5 for around 700

This way if you lose your teaser on the 12:30 game you still have a shot at winning 1400. You also still have a shot at winning both because you can middle with Tenn -5.5 and Det +11.5 (if say Titans wins by 10) and also with Dal -7 and Sea +12.5 (if Dal wins by 10).

If you lose your IF bet then the Sea bet is off but you can still hedge the remaining 3200 on the afternoon game.

Since no one responded, I put my idea to paper. Here is one scenario. Obviously you can adjust the If bet or hedge bet amount to weight a specific scenario you feel stronger about.

I compared each scenario to what would happen if you did nothing and just let your tease ride as is.
Now winning 4x your bet is certainly not a bad thing but it certainly is not 10x so this is why I highlighted that scenario in red.

The yellows are basically a wash comparing doing nothing vs my strategy.

The green is where you would do significantly better than if you did nothing.

The one thing I did not account for is a Dallas Push for your tease (win by exactly 7) but I think you could figure it out with these numbers as a start. All other spreads have the hook.

I would certainly double check my work before laying any additional wagers. Please let us know what you decide to do.

you could bet seattle plus the points and hope for the middle...could easily land on 10...maybe for a nickel or even a dime

you are in good shape with Dallas at home on T giving

in fact...

that is exactly what I would do...come back with Seattle plus the 11.5 for a dime...guarantee yourself a dime (profit 600) and possibly hit the middle

gl with whatever you do...that is a nice ticket


I would have to know how you bet to really tell you what you need to do...
