The NFL season began Thursday with an epic contest between the Buccaneers and Cowboys. Tom Brady and the Bucs edged the Cowboys by two points. No matter who you rooted for, it made all fans excited for football season.
Best NFL Bookies for Teaser Bets
Spreads in week one can be slightly risky. Teaser bets are the best way to make money during the first week of action. Here are my best two teasers for the opening slate of action.
3-Team NFL Week 1 6-Point Teaser Picks
Jaguars vs. Texans Predictions
Jacksonville Jaguars Teased from -3 to +3 vs. Houston Texans
The Jacksonville Jaguars are in for one of their best seasons in a long time. The team is not going to be great, but there is hope in Jacksonville because of Trevor Lawrence. Lawrence will be under center to start the season for the team.
The Houston Texans have a quarterback debacle. Tyrod Taylor will start for the team following the departure of Deshaun Watson. Watson’s off-the-field issues are expected to hurt the team this season. Teasing the Jaguars to dogs in this game is a safe bet to start the wager.
Steelers vs. Bills Predictions
Pittsburgh Steelers Teased from +6.5 to +12.5 vs. Buffalo Bills
Ben Roethlisberger is back under center for another season with the Steelers. Pittsburgh is a good football team, but they are not as talented as Buffalo. The Bills are a strong team and playing at home in this game.
Nevertheless, the Steelers at +12.5 is a safe tease. If Najee Harris performs, this game could be decided by a few points.
New York Jets vs. Carolina Panthers Teased from -3.5 to +3.5
The Jets are not a good football team, and they have a rookie quarterback in Zach Wilson. The Panthers should be improved this year if they can protect Sam Darnold. Darnold will get a crack at his former team in this game.
Christian McCaffery is going to win this game for the Panthers. Teasing the Panthers to an underdog has great value at home.
3-Team NFL Week 1 10-Point Teaser Picks
Cleveland Browns vs. Kansas City Chiefs Teased from -5.5 to +5.5
The Kansas City Chiefs are going to beat the Browns on Sunday. I believe Cleveland will put up a fight but fall short down the stretch. The nation believes the Chiefs will cover -5.5, so taking them at +5.5 is a steal.
Dolphins vs. Patriots Predictions
Miami Dolphins Teased from +3 to +13 vs. New England Patriots
This matchup is defined by Alabama quarterbacks. It could be one of the best throughout the weekend because of the even matchup. The Miami Dolphins will likely lose, but there are so many unknowns in this game.
The Dolphins have some advantages in the passing game, but New England’s front seven should succeed. The Dolphins as a two-score dog will hit on Sunday. This is one you must include in your teaser.
Chicago Bears vs. Los Angeles Rams Teased from -7.5 to +3.5
The Rams as underdogs against the Bears, have tremendous value. Matt Nagy refuses to start Justin Field, which is a huge mistake. Andy Dalton has the experience, but he is not the future or explosive.
Los Angeles has Matt Stafford looking to get off to a strong start.
