NFL - Thursday Night Football

I am making a Teaser play here. 

2 Team 6 point teaser - Ties Reduce (push) at (-110)

1. 9/11/2014 8:25 PM NFL Football 101 Pittsburgh Steelers* +8½  vs Baltimore Ravens
2. 9/11/2014 8:25 PM NFL Football 101 Pittsburgh Steelers/Baltimore Ravens* Under 51 

Risking 2.00 To Win 1.82 (Loss)

Line available at 5Dimes

Each of the last 4 meetings between these 2 teams has been decided by a field goal or less and all of the totals have gone under 44 points. 

I made this play both times they played last year and I have to go back to it again this year. This is always a hard fought divisional game that usually comes down to the last play of the game. I really wouldn't be surprised to see another 3 point game here. Looking at all of the common combinations we are getting some extra safety with the 51 total just incase the final ends up at 27-24. My real feeling is that this game will be somewhere in the 20-23 range which should cover both the spread and the under bet here. 

Note: You can get this same play at +9 and under 50 for -110 on Bodog or Bovada, but the under 51 is a much better total than 50, and the half point from +8.5 to +9 doesn't usually make much difference.

9/11/2014 12:35 PM MLB Baseball 901 St. Louis Cardinals/Cincinnati Reds* Under 7 -130
L Lynn - R Listed   J Cueto - R Listed
Risking 1.50 To Win 1.15 (WINNER)

This line just dropped to under 6.5 on the reduced menu at 5 Dimes. You can still get it at -130 on Pinnacle.

Both of these pitchers have been consistently shutting down opponents and both have been averaging well below 3 runs per game. Neither offense has been shooting the lights out so I see this one going under 7.

The line at 7 is much safer than the 6.5 line as 7 is a more common # in baseball.

Take the alternate total if you have to, take it at under 7.

Lets Get It
