Hello everyone, I am brand new to MadJack forums. I just thought I would start posting my NFL picks for discussion. I just started betting NFL about a month ago and I am running at about 69%. Here are my picks so far for week 16:

Titans +6 vs Dolphins
Raiders/Broncos under 42
49ers/Rams under 42
Saints/Lions under 37.5
Texans/Jags under 37.5
Bills/Bengals under 44
Cardinals/Eagles under 39.5

Please let me know what you think of these picks!

No, but this week in particular looked really nice for the unders. Usually I bet the spreads more so than the over unders, just happened that I liked a lot of unders this week.

I like most of these plays. Most I don't like enough to play, but I certainly like your sides. I personally played the Niners/Rams under as well, i think that's a great pick. I also played Cards/Eagles under, I think that'll be a field goal battle. The ones I don't feel good about are the Raiders/Broncos and Bills/Bengals plays. The Raiders/Broncos total is spot on I think, so that one is a coin flip in my mind. I actually think the Bengals/Bills line will go over and will probably play a small parlay with Cinci -14 and the over. Other than that you're in great shape IMO, here's to us both having great weeks!! :mj14:

I am also going to play: Steelers/Browns over 32.5

Cleveland puts points on the board when they are at home and I dont see Pittsburgh losing this game, so I guess they will be putting some points up as well. This should cover pretty easily. As a rule of thumb how much do you guys usually risk of your bankroll per bet? I have been running at a steady 3.5%. Any thoughts on the games or the bankroll management?

And How about Falcons/Bucs over 36.5. These two teams always put up a lot of points when playing each other. I like this play as well

I added a couple teasers to the mix this week. I personally LOVE the 1st one!

6 pt teaser (3 teams)
Pats +.5
Bears -1
Steelers -1.5

6pt teasers (7teams)
Pats +.5
Bears -1
Steelers -1.5
Bengals/Bills under 50
49ers/Rams under 48
Falcons/Bucs over 30.5
Giants/Skins over 31

I like both of these.. I need to get a bit lucky to hit the 2nd one, but what do you guys think of these teasers?

I wouldnt touch the Bengals/Bill point total. Never know whats going to happen...under 50 should be safe though. The 6pt/7team teaser looks really good though. (also gotta hope that Bucs/Falcons actually put up points!) Could very well be a 17-13 game..
Your 3 team teaser is solid.

Yea, Hopefully I can at least hit the 1st one, I am gonna have to get a bit lucky on the 2nd one. I dont see much of a problem in the Falcons/Bucs putting up points though, It wont be cold (which is why neither of them could score last week) and when these two teams meet they usually put up a good amount of points. Also, I dont see the Bills scoring more than 10, and if the bengals score more than 40, well then I deserve to lose the bet, I just cannot see the bengals scoring 40, after all, the bills defense isnt THAT bad

I like the first teaser. I wouldn't mess with teasing totals unless you're going to use those 14 point 3 or 4 teamers. 6 pts isn't a whole lot of leeway(sp?) when talking about a total, imo teasers are way more valuable on sides. I have Pit in the 2nd half of a 6' pt with Cal from thurs night so i hope it hits for both of us and GL
