NFL Sports Betting Contest/Exhibition : 2013

I’m tempted to do something like pick Seattle to cover the alternate point spread of 21.5 (at odds of +218), because it’s hard to fathom the Rams doing anything other than embarrassing themselves tonight. But we’ll play it safe.

I should really stop posting details on my thought process like this. Every time a disaster.

$400 – Cincinatti -3 (@Mia) +102

I’ll make that same bet.

Ooph, nothing looks good to me this week. I lost my mind Thursday and made the too-obvious bet that’s usually stupid (road favorite, won big in a blowout previous week, opponent with media reports of discord, etc.). For now, just…

$300 – Chicago +10.5 (@GB) -113

Week 8 scored

$300 STL +11; DEN/WAS OVER 58.5 3.64 +1092
$200 STL +11; DEN/WAS OVER 58.5; OAK +1 7 +1400
$200 JAX +14.5; DEN/WAS OVER 58.5; CLE/KC over 38.5 7

$1100 Teaser 8.5 point
CLE +16; DEN/WAS OVER 50; OAK +9.5; STL +19.5; ATL +9.5, NO -2.5 4

1800 wagered, 2492 back
Net +692.

Week 9 card 2

$300 Falcons +9.5, CAR/ATL over 45 3.64
$100 Falcons +9.5, Colts -1, Rams +2.5, Saints -6 13.28

$1200 6.5 point parlay
Falcons +16, CAR/ATL over 39.5, Colts +5.5, Saints +.5, Chiefs +3 4.65

One billion on the chiefs.

$350 – Chicago ML (Det) +102
$200 – Carolina ML (@SF) +210

$200 – Atlanta +3.5 (Sea) -110

$300 – Den/SD o57.5 +100
$200 – Det/Chi u52 -103
$300 – Phi/GB o47 -105

I wonder if the Denver over is going to fail some day. I get the feeling this will be the week.

$500 HOU +3.5/Bengals +1

$1200 Teaser 6.5 points
HOU +10, Bengals +7.5, Raiders +14, Rams +14

I really want to add Atlanta +10 to that, because it seems like it should be obvious, but I think I’m done with Atlanta.

It just feels so safe. Especially playing against another good offense.

Well if Houston doesn’t fall 14 points behind from this point, I’ll have finally hit a teaser. It’s a fairly modest teaser, only +240, but hey, that’d be a net of 3580 for the week.

Well that didn’t take long.

Ha! Your teaser’s still alive, of course, but I’ll have go back soon and see how people are doing teasers/parlays, because I think it’s pretty ugly. I mean, mine are doing well, but you guys…

Not much time

500 browns +4.5 1.96
500 min +13 1.88

1000 teaser 7.5
Hou -2.5 cle +12 min +20.5 den even

$200 – Washington ML (@Phi) +186

$200 – Jacksonville +9.5 (Ari) -108

$200 – NYJ/Buf o39.5 +102

I’ll post more later…

$800 – NE/Car u46.5 +102

The contest kinda petered out, obviously, but I’m bumping this for the playoffs. And if people wanted to wager up to $3000 per week in the postseason, well, I wouldn’t stop you.

Yeah, sorry, I ended up spending my weekends away from my computer and it’s too hard to do on an ipad. Of course I could’ve just done it before the weekend, but I procrastinate. Given that this petered out, and people opening the thread will see the info about the regular season, maybe start a new thread for a shorter-term playoff contest?

$600 – Green Bay +3 -106

$400 – SD/Cin u48 -121
$400 – SF/GB o45.5 -107

SD/Cin Props
$250 – Team to score first = SD +132
$200 – Total QB Sacks o4 -123

$750 – Saints +8 +100
$750 – Colts +7 -103
$750 – Panthers pk -102
$750 – Chargers +10 -125
I think all the underdogs are undervalued this week. I’d be fairly shocked if I did worse than 2-2 on these bets.
