FanDuel Launches $200 Bonus Bet Program for New Users

FanDuel is offering new users up to $200 in bonus bets starting this week. To secure the full amount, a bettor must place a wager of at least $5 for four consecutive days. The promotion launches as the NFL enters Week 9, with the Jacksonville Jaguars set to host the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday Night Football.

The game is scheduled to begin at 8:15 p.m. ET. Bookmakers have listed the Jaguars as 9.5-point favorites. The total points line for the contest is set at 39.5, with the over priced at -110. Analysts attribute the low total to uncertainty in Baltimore's quarterback position.

The Ravens are starting undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano. Fagnano, a former player at the University of Connecticut, moved into the starting role last week after injuries to Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley during a loss to the Buffalo Bills. In that game, Fagnano completed 10 of 21 passes for 91 yards and threw one interception.

Despite the offensive questions, the Jaguars have scored more than 30 points in three of their last five games. The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates each NFL game 10,000 times, calculates a 64% probability that the over will hit in this matchup.

Another recommended wager focuses on running back Derrick Henry. A prop bet is available for Henry to exceed 68.5 rushing yards at odds of -113. Although the Jaguars possess the league's best rushing defense, analysts expect Baltimore to rely heavily on Henry given the current state of its offense. The SportsLine props model projects Henry will accumulate 86.8 rushing yards in the game.
