We re riding with the Lions, Dolphins and 49ers for our Week 7 NFL teaser picks which gets us odds of -123 also created at DraftKings.
NFL Week 7 Teaser Picks
Another of the many ways on how to bet on NFL games comes in the form of teaser picks. Teasers allow you to move the spread up or down on game spreads or totals. You can also choose alternate spreads at most books which is a similar strategy.
For Week 7, we re adding points to two underdogs in the Lions (+3) and Dolphins (+2.5) making them even bigger underdogs, and betting down the 49ers from near touchdown favorites on MNF all the way to +3.5 underdogs. So we ve created a three-team teaser but done so by choosing alternate spreads for each game on DraftKings.
Lions vs Ravens
Pick: Lions +10.5
Both teams have been ATS darlings for their bettors with Detroit 5-1 and Baltimore 4-2. But Detroit have been the most consistent cashers of ATS bets at 13-3 in their past 16 games. Detroit hasn t been on this good a run ATS since the 1960-61 season. Jared Goff is also on fire for bettors being 44-24 ATS himself in recent seasons.
Baltimore is 4-2 and while they ve had two blowout wins of those four, one came against CJ Stroud in his first game, and the other versus Browns backup and rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson. Their other two wins have been by three and eight points.
The Lions are fourth in PPG at 28.0, ninth in PPG allowed at 18.8 and Goff is climbing up the at +3000.
The Lions do have a bunch on injury concerns and certainly could be in a spot where a loss is coming. But if it does, we re betting it s not by more than the 10 points we re using in these teaser picks.
Dolphins vs Eagles
Pick: Dolphins +10.5
Oddsmakers are expecting a shootout here as this game has the highest total of the weekend at 52 points.
After suffering a defeat to the Jets last week it a clear the Eagles are not the same team as last year. Are they good enough to put up some points on a Miami defense that gives up 26.0 PPG (26th) and 343.7 yards per game (20)? Absolutely.
But the Patriots and Jets, two of the league s lowest scoring teams have each put up 20 points on the Eagles. That s something Tua Tagovailoa and the Fins top-ranked offense should be able to do as well. And if they re scoring 20-30 points, they should easily cover the +10.5 points in our NFL Week 7 teaser picks.
The Dolphins offense is so far ahead of the rest of the NFL that there s a bigger difference in average yards per play between the No. 1 Dolphins and the No. 2 team than there is between the No. 2 team and the No. 32 team.

49ers vs Vikings
Pick: 49ers +3.5
Brock Purdy finally lost a regular season game, going into Cleveland against backup PJ Walker and losing 19-17. San Fran still were in a position to try and win it late, but also played parts of the game without Deebo Samuel and Christian McCaffrey who suffered injuries.
Minnesota won last week in Chicago and have their own major injury to deal with as WR Justin Jefferson is on the IR. Their MO is clear. They re going to keep throwing the ball. They do so the most of any team. But the 49ers bring the tenth-best pass defense to the table in Week 7 only giving up 197.8 yards per game.
It s hard to trust the Vikings versus average-to-poor teams, much less versus the team with the best .
