NFL Week 1 Teaser

While teasers do not fit into THE GRID, we can display some in this section so you have a full picture of Week 1 NFL bets.

Be sure to learn which types of teasers in the NFL have historically been the most profitable. TheLines.com’s Eli Hershkovich also checked to see which sportsbooks offer the best prices on teasers this year. Be sure to not pay more than -120.

Stephen Andress & Matt Brown: Cowboys +8.5 & Bengals -2.5

Leg 1: The most obvious leg is taking the Bengals down from -8.5 to -2.5. I have the Patriots as the worst team in the league by a big margin, and have Cincy easily covering 2.5 at home.

Leg 2: The other that screams “BET ME” is taking the Cowboys up to +8.5 from +2.5. It’s a low total game, which makes those points even more valuable. Oh yeah … we still haven’t seen Deshaun Watson throw a football. Every single one of our rankers at TheLines.com has the Cowboys a decent amount ahead of the Browns in our NFL Power Rankings. Despite the game being on the road, getting 8.5 is so very tempting.
