Teasing across zero = Taking a team that is favored and teasing them to be a dog (ex. -3 to +4).
Middling refers to taking both sides in a teaser, so you have to hope that you fall between (or middle of) the two spreads. In your case, he means Bears -1 & Bills +13. You are hoping the Bears can win by 1, but they don't blow out the Bills by more than 13... Or the Bears don't lose straight up.

I appreciate the insight BruceWayne1.
I know that the Bears secondary has been giving up yards to #1 threats this year, but as a whole, their D has held the bend but don't break mentality. The D also gives offenses fits and has a +6 turnover differential. That being said, I'm thinking this D can hang tough and force a turnover at a pivotal moment in this game. Sure the Bears could be 1-2, but they were able to dig deep and force turnovers in crucial moments. And if their defense does allow points, I think Cutler can still sling the ball enough to keep things close and interesting. good luck to you if you are on the other side. |

UPDATED RECORD: 6-10-3
What a rough start to the season I'm having. It starts with my Niners literally falling apart at the seams, and ends with my bankroll bleeding. Breathe, focus, and regroup... Onto Week 4. Locked In: Bears +3 I liked it before I heard news of Burleson being out, and I like it even more now. This game should be a war, and maybe even a high-scoring affair. Contemplating taking the over. Leans: Arizona +3 Saints -6 Falcons/Pats Over Bears/Lions Over Thoughts? Comments? Good luck this week. |

WhiteMice, AAY Thanks fellas.
Bad start to the week as the Eagles turned over the ball and made a ton of mental errors. Crap happens. Oh well, on to Sunday. UPDATED YTD RECORD: 5-5-3 PACK -2.5 They have impressed me as of late, and cincy hasn't really done much IMO. FALCONS +3 I'll roll the dice and take them as 3 point dogs on the road. Not saying that Miami isn't a different animal at home (just check out the way 2013 ended with their home stand), but I think the Falcons are good enough to keep this one close (even without Jackson). SAINTS -7 Brees vs Palmer, and a banged up Fitz... Yeah I have to roll with Brees and Co. Teasers (7 pt): Falcons +10, Niners -3, Saints Even Skins/Lions O41.5, Bears +6, Texans +8 Niners -3, Gmen +6, Vikings -1 As always, comments/criticism always welcome and I might add a few more throughout the day. Good luck all! |

RECORD: 5-4-3
- Only counting the games I post in my weekly threads, and not the ones I post on other cappers' pages. Judging by the results (4-0), maybe I should start counting those lol. Anyways, on to Week 3. Thursday Night: Philly -3 Simply put, I like what Chip Kelly is doing with this offense and I think they can score on this stout Chiefs D. I am still not sold on Alex Smith (this coming from a serious Niners fan), and unless they can control the tempo of this game with their defense and running game, then this game could get away from them. Yes, I know all the talk about a short week and the Eagles tempo, and how little rest they have had and so forth. But I think this team is geared up and have practiced their butts off to run this high-flying/scoring offense week after week. I'm just hoping that the Eagles line (whelp) can block long enough to allow Vick to do his thing. Also, hoping that the Eagles can get some pressure on Alex Smith tonight and force him to rush some throws. Good luck no matter what side you're on! Week 3 Leans... Minny -6, Pack -2.5/-3, Falcons +?, Bears -2.5, G-Men +1

I like it fever. Chip Kelly wants to run more plays and speed up the offense. This could be a long day for Rivers and co. As long as we see the Rivers from Monday's first half, that over should be good. Good luck.

Louis_IV, molar doctor, amp1080
amp1080: i always question taking road favs in the NFL, but I think they are the better overall team. I am betting on the hopes that Tampa's D will not gel this weekend and Brees will still be able to pick them apart. I just hope the Saints defense keeps the bend, but don't break mentality and can load the box against Doug Martin and force Josh Freeman to beat them. molar doctor: Loving ATL in this spot. They are back home and looking for a win. ATL @ home is usually a recipe for success. I think they come out firing and get up early. |

- Thursday Night - Over 48 Denver -1.5/Over 42 (6 pt teaser) Updated NFL Record: 2-0 Hell of a way to kick off the NFL season. We had the opportunity to watch a future HOF'er go off against the Super Bowl Champs. Peyton showed that he still has some magic left in the tank, and reminded us why the Broncos are favored to play in the SB. Wish I would have posted my Denver 2nd Half line of -6 on here as well, but since I didn't post it, I won't count it. As for the rest of Week 1... I am rolling with: Chicago -3 Skins -3 (-130) Texans -3 (-130) Teasers: Broncos O 40.5, Pats -2.5, Colts -3 Still looking at few more games... TB -3 (Scary game), Saints -3, Vikings +5, Pats O 51, Seahawks -3.5 (or -3). Have to do a ton of capping. Questions, comments, criticism always welcome! Let's dot his fellas! Here's to a profitable WEEK 1!!! |

Although I love my Niners, I am a huge skeptic when it comes to my boys. Do I think we can run the table and make another SB appearance? Of course I do. But only if we continue to play the way we did last season, and we get a few lucky swings. I have us winning 11 games this year (maybe more). We have a ton of injuries and questions that need to be answered before we even think about the Super Bowl. Yes, we made it to the Super Bowl, but how long did it take our offense to wake the f*ck up? i love Kaep, but damned if he didn't look like a mindless zombie in the first half. We need to hit the ground running and smash GB in the mouth. We need a statement game right away to set the tone.
Now to say that we are only going to win 8 games is absolutely ridiculous and I will gladly put a wager on that. Even if Kaep were to go down, we could win more than 8 games. Kaepernick is the reason for us winning some games this year, but remember we also have a good running game and a talented defense that helped when Kaep wasn't producing. So if you think we are that bad, who is your team, and do you want to wager against my Niners?

That would've been the nail in the coffin. Regroup and get it back next drive. Or balty can wake the f**k up

IF Amendola stays healthy. I love both of those guys, especially since I went to Tech. But you do have to question Amendola's durability.
