- DraftKings is offering new users $150 in bonus bets after a $5 wager, paid within 14 days, timed to Thursday Night Football between the Cowboys and Buccaneers.
- Thomas Casale and the SportsLine Projection Model both backed Dallas as 9.5-point favorites, with Casale citing Tampa Bay's lack of tools to exploit the Cowboys' defensive weaknesses.
- SportsLine's model projected the Over 48.5 to hit in 67% of simulations, estimating the teams combine for 56 points; the Over has hit in all four Dallas games, with the Cowboys averaging 30.5 ppg (No. 2 scoring offense) while allowing 28 ppg (28th-ranked scoring defense).
- R.J. White backed Jalon Daniels Over 43.5 rushing yards, noting Dallas has allowed Jaxson Dart, Jayden Daniels, and Lamar Jackson to each rush for 50+ yards in the first three weeks.
- Daniels, an undrafted free agent making his second NFL start on short rest, rushed for 55 yards in his debut but was otherwise limited as the Bucs mustered just 4.5 yards per play against the Packers.
Why it matters: Rookie UDFA Jalon Daniels starting on short rest against a Cowboys offense averaging 30.5 ppg makes this a heavily lopsided matchup for bettors, and the model projects Dallas and the Over to clear their marks — a same-game parlay of all three picks pays +500. The promo lowers the effective entry cost for new users to just $5 on a contest where the spread and total already lean one direction.
