- DraftKings is offering new users $200 in bonus bets plus three months of free NBA League Pass for placing a $5 wager, with bonus bets paid within 21 days.
- SportsLine expert R.J. White is backing the Chiefs as 7.5-point home favorites over the Chargers, citing Patrick Mahomes coming off a bye week with Andy Reid — a combo that is 6-2 in regular-season games following a bye.
- SportsLine expert Mike Tierney is backing the Panthers at -3.5 over the Eagles, noting Jalen Hurts is inactive due to a blood clot with Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith also potentially out; Carolina averages over 30 points per game and ranks third in yards per game.
- The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is backing the Packers at -115 to defeat the Cowboys on Sunday Night Football and is up more than $5,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception.
- Combining the three picks — Panthers -3.5, Chiefs -7.5, and Packers -115 — into a Sunday parlay at DraftKings yields a +596 payout (risk $100 to profit $596), per the source.
- The SportsLine model entered Week 6 of the 2026 NFL season on a 57-46 run on top-rated picks dating back to 2024.
Why it matters: New DraftKings users get $200 in bonus bets plus three months of NBA League Pass for a $5 deposit, with bonus bets paid within 21 days. The promo runs as competitors BetMGM ($1,500 bonus bets) and FanDuel ($350 bonus bets) push parallel NFL Week 6 sign-up offers, making this one of the most aggressive sportsbook incentive windows of the season.
