BetMGM Promotions for NFL Week 2: Offers for New US

BetMGM is currently offering new customers a range of welcome promotions tied to NFL Week 2 games, most notably the Monday Night Football clash between the New York Giants and the Los Angeles Rams. These promotions include offers such as a $1,500 first-bet opportunity or a ‘bet $10, get $150 in bonus bets if your bet wins’ option, with availability varying by US state.

Prospective bettors should consult the full terms and conditions of these offers, as highlighted by CBS Sports, and check specific state requirements.

Understanding BetMGM’s Welcome Offers

For new BetMGM customers located in most participating US states, an exclusive $1,500 first-bet offer is available. This promotion ensures that if a customer’s initial wager on a game, such as the New York Giants vs. Los Angeles Rams matchup, is unsuccessful, they will receive their stake back in bonus bets, up to a maximum of $1,500.

However, for new users wagering from Michigan (MI), New Jersey (NJ), Pennsylvania (PA), or West Virginia (WV), BetMGM offers a different promotion: ‘bet $10, get $150 in bonus bets if your bet wins’. According to NOLA.com, the $1,500 first-bet offer is not available in these specific states. Bettors should always double-check the specific terms and conditions applicable to their location.

NFL Week 2: Giants vs. Rams Preview

The Monday Night Football game between the New York Giants and Los Angeles Rams is a focal point for these promotions. The Rams entered the year as Super Bowl favourites after reaching the NFC Championship Game and adding players like Myles Garrett and Trent McDuffie to their defence, as reported by CBS Sports. However, they were defeated 27-7 in Australia in Week 1, with Matthew Stafford completing 60% of his passes for 155 yards, one interception, and no touchdowns. Myles Garrett is now on injured reserve with a knee injury.

Conversely, the New York Giants, viewed as a ‘sleeper team’ under new coach John Harbaugh, started strong by beating Dallas 28-20 in Week 1. They dominated time of possession with Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo, limiting Dallas to just two second-half possessions. Despite being heavy underdogs against the Rams, the Giants have shown they can keep games competitive, going 1-0 against the spread (ATS) this season and 3-1 ATS in their last four games when listed as an underdog by fewer than seven points, NOLA.com notes. Their offense averages 28.0 points and 394 total yards per game, with a 100% red zone conversion rate.

The Rams are currently heavy favourites for the matchup, with the SportsLine Projection Model simulating them to cover a seven-point spread in most instances.
