    Ya gotta look at parlays from a long term perspective--for instance this is what panthers/packers looks like now:

    Parlay (2 Picks)
    +100
    Carolina Panthers
    -160
    Carolina Panthers @ New York Giants
    Green Bay Packers
    -429
    Washington Football Team @ Green Bay Packers

    At +100 you have to win 50% of the time to break even. If you can do better than a coin flip, which you can, you should be able to win 60-70% so over time its a good play. II'm rolling with it as I like it too. But dont play 'zona--the odds there are too high to give and doesn't help in the long run imo.

    • Carolina Panthers (-160)(453) Carolina Panthers @ (454) New York Giants
    • Green Bay Packers (-430)

    Eh I'm less analytical than you are though. Losing the Panthers bet because say Aaron Rodgers breaks his collarbone and the WFT defensive line finally shows up would infuriate me.

    I think you're thinking is extremely sound but those L's bother me too much.

    Not that it matters to me since I can watch any game, but the locals can't be happy about both the jets and giants playing at 1. Used to piss me off when I lived there and it was kind of a rarity.

    Yeah--I wish the WFT defense would show up--I'm getting reamed on my futures bets on them.

    Trying to figure out what the hell is happening with them--I was so confident that Rivera would have that D playing.

    I just wish the Jets would play at 4pm some weeks when we have Bengals/Ravens, and Chiefs/Titans which would both be CBS national broadcasts.

    It was kind of nice having the bye week for Ravens/Chargers to be on last week even though it was a beatdown.

    Wilson under 1.5 INTs
    Bateman over 38.5 receiving
    Bateman over 3.5 receptions
    Bateman to score

    all the Bateman bets are .5u

    At what point does Vegas start juicing Burrow over 1.5 passing TDs to -200? Bets hit every single week and only been -140 / -160 max

    I heard about Bateman's O/U all morning and stayed away. So pissed about that.

    Hit the Raiders ML -110 and live +140. Piss pounding the Eagles right now. Tried the Bears over 17.5 which I doubt hits unless garbage time breaks through.

    I'm on them +3.5. And Happy Feet Jimmy to throw a pick at +106. Wentz has the same odds. Both of those idiots are wearing gloves in the rain too.

    Good luck

    I have a 7 leg same game parlay running. 2 legs left after first half. I need Deebo Samuel to score a TD and Jonathan Taylor score a TD. Rushing or Receiving TD doesn't matter.

    You see it happening?

    $5 for $70.50

    I have Deebo in fantasy while playing against JT in the same league. So I'm rooting for one/against the other. Sucks that JT didn't get that goal line TD that Wentz just got.

    Stop playing the 150 leg parlays Brook!!!! Play 2-3.

    Today I got lucky. I had 4 parlays $5 each. 2 failed. One parlay with 4 legs netted me $34.80 and the other one with 5 legs netted me $58.60

    I am a happy camper today and decided to make tonight a little interesting.

    Took the Colts to win paired with the 41.5 over.

    The day turned into a wash... Fuck you Carolina! :mad:

    I'm thinking Saints spread and the under? Someone convince me that's a bad bet.
