There's no thread?

Well, now there is. I could not BELIEVE that the Jets were a pick'em today. That was... lucrative.

I decided to ride with Marciano on PIT. This has been a very delightful weekend despite Stanford and NEP losing.

I think I've run out my luck for the week, but my oh my that Minnesota line looks awful tasty to me.

I've been riding Minny('sota) for three weeks now. That said, I'm on the east coast for a couple of days this week and the 8:30 start times are fucking brutal. I can't believe I had to stay up until 11:30 to make sure Eli didn't hose me.

Yeah I moved back east from Colorado two years ago. Man I got spoiled with mountain time. I don't even watch most Pats night games at this point. Maybe the Thursday night games since I have the weekend to recover. Starting off Monday with no sleep sucks.

I cant take Atlanta this week. The Atlanta defense is still atrocious, that team is better than I would have thought but getting a touch overrated. Den -2 or 2.5 on a neutral? Seems thin, even if Lynch ends up going.

Actually like SD a little bit if I can the 4.

Gonna play Arizona -3 at SF, think I'll know if Im a genius or idiot about 6 minutes into that one. Almost hope Palmer doesnt play (and definitely hope Chris Johnson doesnt play) and it forces Arians to feed DJ instead of running fades to Michael Floyd.

Biggest play of the week will be Steelers/Packers tease.

Put a teeny tiny bet on an under/Arizona tease. I hate unders, but I'd be shocked if these two teams hit 50.

I mean congrats I couldn't do it. Happy with hammering Pitt need gb for a good werk
Yeah, just need the over tonight. Still a bit stunned Philly blew it. That was my favorite bet. Did a 13 point teaser with those 4 bets, too, for a fair amount so could still be a nice night. Especially if Oakland hangs on.

That line opened at DET -1. I'm always scared when I seem something really strange like that.

I'll join you on that. And tease it with Chargers +3.5. I have a feeling the Broncos are running out of luck and steam. Or maybe that's just a hope.

I really want to bet SD in this spot but cant do it. Worry too much about Denver's front just dominating the game given the SD injuries and worry that at some point the terrible losses reach a tipping point and the team just tanks. Plus not sure who can matchup with the Denver wideouts

where I was last at
SD plays great 45 minute games. But they're snake bit.

I think Semien is playing, so I'm hesitant to bet against the Denver D versus Rivers (i really like him) absent some of his weapons.
I'm passing on this one.

good luck to you guys

Which online book do you guys use?

I just want to put $5-$10 on a 10-12 game parlay each week for shits and giggles and a few individual bets if something looks really good.

Placed baby bets on Det, Pitt, NE, Oak and Atl. Don't like any of them particularly, but I'm a degenerate.

Do you tease games? I don't bet but always look at the lines and didn't like anything alone but thought Pitt/Pats tease was tempting

Yeah I teased the Thursday night game and won and I'll always tease fairly big and parlay very small my 4-5 bets for the day.
