The weekly Thursday Night Football odds boost from FanDuel Sportsbook at MotorCity Casino has a week off to recover from its first loss.
The weekly FanDuelNFL special was 4-0 to start the season before last week’s wager for the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers to score at least a touchdown in each half faltered.
Kickoff is at 6:30 ET, and the point spread is holding steady at Kansas City -3 -120, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. It’s impressive just to have made it to this point in the season, with all games successfully completed and the one big one left to go. FanDuel Sportsbook: 25-1 Odds On NFL Divisional Round. First things first, let’s take a quick look at the odds for the four NFL games this weekend. Jan 26, 2021 FanDuel Sportsbook’s Spread the Love promo is, arguably, one of the best all-around sportsbook specials out there and this marks the first time that bettors in the Michigan market will be able to grab what essentially amounts to a guaranteed winner. With this special, bettors in designated markets rally together to push the point spread of a selected game to absolutely insane levels.
No touchdowns were scored in the entire second half, which meant the bet — boosted from +205 to +260 — went down.
More odds boosts and free plays will be available to online customers after sports betting apps launch later this year. But for now, odds boosts and sports promos are available at retail books in the state.
With no Thursday game on the slate for NFL Week 6, let’s take a look at the Sunday odds boosts offered at the in-person sportsbook at MotorCity.
MotorCity does not include an odds boost on the Detroit Lions at Jacksonville Jaguars game this Sunday.
But there is a special three-team moneyline parlay deal being offered by the book.
Bettors would need Baltimore to top Philadelphia, Pittsburgh to beat Cleveland, and Green Bay to overtake Tampa Bay to win the parlay. Odds have been boosted from +240 to +300.
The bet is available only at MotorCity Casino kiosks and there is a $200 maximum bet allowed.
The FanDuel Thursday odds boosts were perfect in the first four weeks of the season.
The winning bets were:
The FanDuel Sportsbook at MotorCity has been more popular since football season started in September.
Most Thursdays, the crowd has been strong at MotorCity, especially in the moments leading to kickoff.
MotorCity’s nearly $13 million handle in September drew closer to MGM Grand Detroit, which still leads at $14.6 million in bets.
MotorCity’s 38.7% market share for Detroit casino sports betting was an improvement over March and August. In those partial months of sports betting, MGM took slightly less than half of the bets. MotorCity was at 32.5%.
The gain in handle may have more to do with NFL kickoff in early September than anything else. But offers such as weekly odds boosts and parlays certainly help keep some of the spotlight on MotorCity and FanDuel Sportsbook.
