Pointless Parlay: BT's Blunder in the 10-Point Teaser!
Podcast: The Carton Show with Craig Carton & Chris McMoniglePublished On: Tue Nov 25 2025
Description: BT and Sal dive into their weekly "Perfect Parlay Pick" segment early, focusing on the high-stakes, 35-point Turkey Day Teaser ahead of the Thanksgiving NFL slate. Sal is set to announce his picks tomorrow, but BT and Hof (who leads the season standings) lock in their 3-team, 10-point teasers today. BT awkwardly reveals his picks—two Unders (Packers/Lions and Chiefs/Cowboys) and taking the Bengals at +17 against Baltimore. Hof, meanwhile, goes "All Overs" on all three Thanksgiving games, setting up a sharp contrast. The segment sparks a wider debate on betting philosophy: why teasers are often seen as a "sucker bet," why Sal avoids over/unders, and the critical difference in laying the points between NFL and the "carnage" of college football where massive spreads are more common.
