Bettors who sign up with the FanDuel promo code get $300 in bonus bets for playoff baseball and Thursday Night Football between the 49ers and Rams
Last week saw two NFC West rivals face off on Thursday Night Football when the Seahawks beat the Cardinals, and this week is similar as the 49ers visit the Rams on Oct. 2. Those interested in betting on the NFL, including Thursday Night Football, should check out the FanDuel promo code, which gives new users $300 in bonus bets after they win a first wager of $5 or more. This offer can also be used on any of today's three MLB playoff games.
Best bets for Thursday
The Rams were able to get back in the win column last week by defeating the Indianapolis Colts, while the 49ers were handed their first loss of the year by the Jaguars. Each side enters the week 3-1, and the winner will sit in first place by themselves until at least Sunday. The Rams swept this season series last year as the 49ers dealt with a ton of injuries. That's the case again this year for San Francisco, with Nick Bosa out for the year and more than a few offensive players set to miss Thursday, namely quarterback Brock Purdy and receivers Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall. The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is backing the Rams at -8.5, as they cover in 52% of simulations.
Three MLB wild card series are going to Game 3. The Guardians, Yankees and Padres all won on Wednesday, forcing winner-take-all Game 3s. The Tigers will start Jack Flaherty (8-15, 4.64 ERA) against Slad Cecconi (7-7, 4.30 ERA) and the Guardians; Yu Darvish (5-5, 5.38 ERA) starts for the Padres against the Cubs, who will start Jameson Taillon (11-7, 3.68 ERA), and Connelly Early (1-2, 2.33 ERA) goes for the Red Sox against Cam Schlittler (4-3, 2.96 ERA) and the Yankees. The model's top plays for this slate are Guardians covering at -1.5, the Cubs on the money line at -118 and Over 7.5 runs in Red Sox vs. Yankees.
