They are not locks. Do you think if PHI loses, they lose by more than 2? I would never do a 3 team 12 pt teaser (what odds did you have to lay), but I assume you would still never cross the 0 in these either.

I would say you are nuts.

the odds arent great AT ALL but I HIGHLY doubt
Oakland goes into Philly and even makes it a game..Stl will not only win but crush tenn.
and cinn. well nuff said..
PLUS im + in all 3 I feel this is a very safe bet..hope im right..thanks for quick response

These look like 10-point teasers, not 12. If they ARE 12, then you're getting crazy lines and should be betting heavily on the dog in all three of these games since you're getting a very good price that is not widely available.

Anyway, I don't see the value here. The idea that they're "locks" is laughable, so if the only other alternative is "you are nuts" then I pick that.

nuts...what game there looks bad getting points...

What kind of juice are you laying on 12 pt. teasers?

Like Craig said, there are no locks. The Rams have struggled (yes, I know, on the road), but Tennessee looked decent vs. Baltimore. Tennessee has often been able to put up bushles of points, and could find a way to beat St. Louis. It's unlikely, but possible.

And, going with what Craig said, the money line on the eagles isn't -1000000. They can lose, and if they do, it'll most likely by at least 2.

Lastly, with the bengals. You say they look good, I say they've only played horrible teams. You say the bears are horrible, I say they've averaged 30 point wins at home so far this year.

Do I think your teaser will win? Yes, I do. But without knowing the juice, it's difficult to say I like the teaser.

Each one is individually a favorite to win. But let's say you have a 75% chance of winning each. That's pretty good, right? If so, you're winning this bet about 42% of the time, which is bad.

Again, where are you getting these lines of Rams -8.5, Eagles -10, Bengals -5? I would want to bet the other side on all three.

No kidding. I think they are Ten point teasers. I know places have these in NBA and they are all 10 point. I think, but not positive, you have to lay 120. I don't even think any of these have a 75% chance by themselves. Maybe the bengals and rams because they cross key numbers. But, I really don't think PHI will lose by 1 point only if they lose (I am almost positive that a tie loses...and 2 is not super common, but it could happen).

I do too, but he/she didn't respond to my last post asking about that.

Yeah, I have no clue. I was just pointing out that even if they do, it's still a bad bet.
