New users don't need to enter a DraftKings promo code to get $150 in bonus bets for NFL Week 16 Buccaneers vs. Cowboys. This deal varies by location, but I'll break it down very simply here: If you live in AZ, CO, CT, IL, IN, MA, ME, NC, OH, PA, WY, or WV you'll get the bonus as soon as you wager at least $5. You'll need to win your first bet if you're in: DC, IA, KS, KY, LA (select parishes), OR, MD, MI, NJ, NY, TN, VA, or VT.
The DraftKings new user promo doesn't require you to enter a DraftKings promo code, which is the first thing you need to know about this offer. The second thing to know is the $150 bonus is guaranteed in certain states; in other states you need to win your first wager. Here's how to get started:
If I am using the DraftKings new user promo in a state that gives me the bonus bets instantly, I would consider taking the Cowboys +4 (-112).
Dallas' pass rush has come alive since Micah Parsons returned in Week 10 (NFL-best 24 sacks). Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has an NFL-best 392 rushing yards over the past three weeks.
Three points is a key number in NFL betting, so getting four points here with the Cowboys is massive. It doesn't hurt that Tampa Bay could be in for a let down after an impressive 40-17 win over the Chargers.
If I needed to win my bet, I'd look to play an alternate spread of Cowboys +7.5 (-215). Seven is another key number in NFL betting and I don't see a scenario where the Buccaneers cover 7.5 on the road against a Dallas defense that has been better in the back end with the return of CB DaRon Bland.
