Even though 1 went a paltry 1 for 3 in the thread this week, banging out CLE straight and using teasers delivered a profitable weekend as all my games covered the teased number. Also nabbed Swiss Skydiver for the win in the Preakness and hit the exacta. Rock on.
GB has a total of 8 points scored in the 1Q to date. Slow starters. For betting purposes I took ATL and bought up to +3.5 1Q (-155) $. I feel a little less confident about ATL 1H but its doable.
Cant make that an official play in this forum for the sake of fairness, but Im on it for 1 unit.
I cant make a case for the under in this game so for the thread we will go over 56.5 GB/ATL but note my money is actually on the previously mentioned plays.
Also Gilmore (NE) covers Hill (KC) very well. Hill always a threat to break one so rather than go under his receiving yards I went under 5.5 receptions Hill (-145) $
For this thread's selections I will take NE + 10.5 vs KC and Over 56.5 GB/ATL

Week 5 opening lines to lock in
DAL -9.5 vs NYG
CLE +3 vs IND (avail at Bet Stars)
NE -5 at DEN (not yet available but looking to pounce on it and will take it up to -7)
Also I won a parlay last week taking
LAR halftime and fulltime (-250) with
BAL halftime and fulltime (-222)
which paid even money.
Rams had a chance to blow this bet as they let the Giants hang around but Danny Dimes came through with the INT on the last drive.
This HT/FT option will be available at Bet Stars at some point this week. Keep in mind that Draw is an option in this type of bet so you will lose ties. There is no point spread to cover just the heavy juice so this is why it pays to parlay two selections.
I am looking to repeat this strategy this week as there are 5 teams that could win wire to wire and they are : TB, NE (vs. DEN), PIT, BAL, DAL.
I am also on CHI TT un 20 -115 vs TB
DAL -9.5 vs NYG
CLE +3 vs IND (avail at Bet Stars)
NE -5 at DEN (not yet available but looking to pounce on it and will take it up to -7)

Just had a fun amount on it so no biggie.
Did have a 5 way teaser that just needed ATL+14.5 to cash. Hedged it for 1/3rd the payout with GB -6.5, so middled and won both.
I love me some teasers for this reason. How about a teaser of the week contest thread?

Adding Chargers +8.5 -110 (BetStars)
New Orleans has only been able to score a ton against soft defenses which the Chargers are not. The defense suffered a tough loss to Tampa Bay who managed to rally from a large deficit to win. I expect them to tighten things up on the grand stage which is Monday Night Football.
Hebert is playing extremely well and the Chargers offense is clicking.
