We are through seven weeks of the 2022 NFL season and it continues to be one of the strangest on record. There continue to be a ton of upsets every single week and that is why making a teaser pick might be the way to go.
You can usually find both six and ten-point teaser picks available. That leads to plenty of options to give yourself some protection. Here are the best teaser picks to make for NFL action in week 8.
NFL 6-Point Teaser Picks For Week 8
Best Bet: Cowboys -9.5 to -3.5
The 5-2 Cowboys host the 3-4 Bears in a game that suddenly looks a bit more interesting than it did a few days ago. Chicago went into New England and destroyed the Patriots on MNF. They will look to stay hot in this game.
Dallas should still be the betting favorite in this game, but it’s not going to be a blowout. Take the Cowboys at -3.5, as the Bears are going to keep this game close.
Panthers vs. Falcons Predictions
Best Bet: Falcons -4.5 to +1.5
NFC South rivals meet up in week 8, as the Falcons host the Carolina Panthers. Carolina looked to be throwing in the towel on the year, but then they stunned the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last weekend.
Atlanta has the ability to score some points and it should be a good day on offense for the Falcons. Tease the line to +1.5, as Atlanta is going to win this game, but it’s best to give yourself some breathing room.
Commanders vs. Colts Predictions
Best Bet: Colts -3.0 to +3.0
The Indianapolis Colts are making a change at the quarterback position and there are plenty of questions around this team. The Colts are betting favorites when hosting the Washington Commanders, but this will be an interesting game.
Washington is a team with plenty of questions as well, but they do have some nice pieces. Take the Colts in this game, but tease the line to +3.0 first.
NFL 10-Point Teaser Picks for Week 8
Cardinals vs. Vikings Predictions
Best Bet: Cardinals +3.5 to +13.5
The Arizona Cardinals have been a complete mystery this season and it’s hard to know what team will show up. Arizona can beat anyone in the league, but they have also struggled at times as well.
Moving this spread to +13.5 is the best play, as the Cardinals should be able to keep this game within 10 points.
Best Bet: Patriots -1.5 to +8.5
AFC East rivals meet up, as the Patriots are 1.5-point favorites on the road in New York. This line has felt off since it was announced, especially with the recent play of the Jets.
New York has been the more complete team this season and the Jets are going to be looking to make a statement in this one. The Patriots can keep it within a touchdown, though and that’s where teasing the line can help.
Best Bet: Bills -11.5 to -1.5
Sunday Night Football features the Bills and Packers. This was supposed to be a potential Super Bowl preview. Buffalo has lived up to the hype, but the same can’t be said for the Packers.
Aaron Rodgers is always dangerous in primetime, though and he is going to keep this game close. Take the 10 points and move the line to Buffalo -1.5 for a much safer play.
