- FanDuel is offering new bettors up to $350 in bonus bets when they wager $5+ over seven days, with the promo tied to Thursday Night Football's Lions-Bills matchup in Week 2.
- The Buffalo Bills are 5.5-point home favorites over the Detroit Lions at FanDuel for the first game at the new Highmark Stadium.
- The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, enters Week 2 on a 53-39 run on top-rated picks since 2024 and has returned well over $7,000 for $100 players on NFL picks since inception.
- The model projects the Over 54.5 will hit at a 56% rate, citing the Lions' high-powered offense under Dan Campbell featuring Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jahmyr Gibbs and Jameson Williams against the Bills' arsenal that now includes D.J. Moore.
- D.J. Moore, who went for 100 receiving yards in his Bills debut against the Texans in Week 1, is projected by SportsLine's prop model for just 44.4 yards, with the Under 63.5 receiving yards rated 4.5 out of 5 stars.
Why it matters: Bettors weighing the marquee TNF matchup get a specific edge: the SportsLine model flags two one-sided plays — the Over 54.5 at 56% probability and Moore's receiving Under at 4.5/5 stars — meaning the article's actionable picks are tied to a model with a documented 53-39 track record rather than narrative hype.
