- DraftKings promo code gives new users $150 in bonus bets after a $5 wager, paid within 14 days, tied to Thursday Night Football's Browns-Steelers Week 4 opener
- Aaron Rodgers threw for 292 yards and three touchdowns in a 30-27 Steelers win over the Bengals last week, prompting SportsLine's Larry Hartstein to back Pittsburgh as 2.5-point favorites
- Hartstein cited Cleveland's 38 percent pressure rate allowed against Carolina and predicted Deshaun Watson will make critical mistakes as Pittsburgh improves to 3-1
- SportsLine's model projects the Under 38.5 total to hit in 56% of its 10,000 simulations, noting Pittsburgh ranked second-to-last in scoring before last week's Bengals outburst and both prior 2024 Rodgers-Browns matchups went Under
- Jaylen Warren Over 17.5 total carries is R.J. White's top player prop pick; with Rico Dowdle sidelined, Warren logged 17 carries last week and RBs have totaled 19-25 carries in all three Browns games this season
- The SportsLine model entered Week 4 on a 54-43 run on top-rated NFL picks dating back to 2024 and is up well over $7,000 for $100 players since inception
- Combining all three picks into a Steelers-Browns same-game parlay at DraftKings yields +310 odds, with the article noting odds are subject to change
Why it matters: DraftKings' aggressive $5-for-$150 promotion lowers the barrier for new bettors, but the SportsLine model's 54-43 record on top-rated NFL picks since 2024 is far from a lock — and Hartstein's case for the Steelers overlooks that Pittsburgh ranked second-to-last in scoring before last week's 30-point output against a bottom-tier Bengals defense.
