Our Covers Team put three winning teaser picks on the board in NFL Week 10, which means our inter-office competition is heating up just as the weather gets cold.
If you’re new to our weekly teaser/parlay picks, here’s the rundown of our friendly contest: Six members of our Covers Team are going head-to-head-to-head-to-head-to-to-head-to-head this season, providing their favorite “accumulator” for the weekly NFL odds. Picks must give at least a three-game parlay or three-game teasers (standard 6-point wiggle) for full-game spreads and totals this football season. Odds used will be our Covers Line (the ultimate industry consensus odds) at the time of publish.
A case of beer and bragging rights are waiting for the winner come Week 17, but until then the battle continues. On with the NFL Week 11 teaser/parlay picks!
ANDREW CALEY, SENIOR PUBLISHING EDITOR (-2.2 units)
THREE-TEAM PARLAY (+600)
N.Y. JETS +2.5
NEW ENGLAND -3.5
KANSAS CITY-L.A. CHARGERS OVER 52
We've fallen a bit behind thanks to a mini two-week losing streak. But we're going to jump to the front of the pack with a parlay this week! The Jets are bad, but Washington is worse. This Pats line is too low. And Mahomes is going to throw the ball out of the stadium in Mexico City.
LAST WEEK:
KANSAS CITY-TENNESSEE OVER 43.5?
ARIZONA-TAMPA BAY OVER 46?
LOS ANGELES RAMS +2.5?
ROB HANSEN, ALERTS/SOCIAL MEDIA EDITOR (-4.8 units)
THREE-TEAM TEASER (+160)
MINNESOTA -4
CHICAGO +10
KANSAS CITY-L.A. CHARGERS OVER 46
Key numbers, key numbers, key numbers. I'm going for two weeks in a row with a winning teaser and moving games through some really important digits is the best way to get it done. I need to start closing the gap and get closer to positive units soon, if this week's teaser doesn't work out I'm going to have to make the switch to straight parlays. Desperate times...
LAST WEEK:
BALTIMORE -4.5?
DETROIT-CHICAGO UNDER 47.5?
SEATTLE +12?
BRANDON DUBREUIL, HOST OF PROP SHOP PODCAST (-4.8 units)
THREE-TEAM TEASER (+160)
CAROLINA +1.5
BUFFALO -0.5
OAKLAND -5.5
Atlanta winning two straight road games? Not happening. Miami winning three straight games? Definitely not happening. Cincinnati and Ryan Finley staying within a touchdown in Oakland? Doubtful.
LAST WEEK:
GREEN BAY +1?
DETROIT +8.5?
BUFFALO +8.5?
JASON LOGAN, SENIOR INDUSTRY ANALYST (+1.3 units)
THREE-TEAM TEASER (+160)
DENVER-MINNESOTA UNDER 46
JACKSONVILLE-INDIANAPOLIS UNDER 49.5
HOUSTON-BALTIMORE OVER 45.5
Teasing a ton of totals. There will be a lot of runs chewing up the clock in Broncos-Vikings, Nick Foles return does nothing for me, and Texans-Ravens will be like watching my 14-year-old play Madden - lots and lots of scoring.
LAST WEEK:
ATLANTA +20?
MINNESOTA-DALLAS OVER 42?
MIAMI-INDIANAPOLIS UNDER 50?
ROHIT PONNAIYA, PUBLISHING EDITOR (-7.4 units)
THREE-TEAM TEASER (+160)
BUFFALO -0.5
NEW ORLEANS +0.5
OAKLAND -5.5
One month ago the Bills were 17-point faves against Miami now they're favored by less than a TD. I'm pushing this down to a simple win and taking the much better squad. I like the 7-2 Saints to win against the 3-6 Bucs, regardless of the game being held in Tampa Bay (and given that the Bucs are 0-3 ATS at home that's not much of an advantage). The Jets and 'Skins have two of the ugliest offenses in the league while the Jets, somewhat surprisingly, have a decent defense. I'm pushing that total up and hitting the Under.
LAST WEEK:
ATLANTA +20?
KANSAS CITY PK?
CAROLINA-GREEN BAY OVER 41?
PATRICK EVERSON, SENIOR WRITER LAS VEGAS (-10 units)
THREE-TEAM PARLAY (+600)
KANSAS CITY -4
NEW ENGLAND -3.5
L.A. RAMS -6
I’m taking the Chiefs, even though the line went from -3.5 to –4 vs. Chargers in Mexico City. K.C. gives up points in bushels, but L.A. wildly inconsistent. Gimme the Patriots, too, laying 3.5 at Philadelphia. Bill Belichick off a loss, then a bye week. And Rams -6 hosting Bears.
LAST WEEK:
GREEN BAY +1?
ARIZONA +10.5?
SAN FRANCISCO PK?
