NFL 'Thursday Night Football' Betting Promos Offer Over $5,000 in Bonuses for Patriots vs. Bears

This week's "Thursday Night Football" matchup between the New England Patriots and the Chicago Bears offers a chance for bettors to earn over $5,000 in bonuses from sportsbooks and prediction markets. The game features two teams at 4-2, both looking to solidify their positions behind their young quarterbacks.

Drake Maye has been instrumental in the Patriots' three-game winning streak, throwing 10 touchdown passes against a single interception. Meanwhile, Caleb Williams returns to action for the Bears, aiming to build on his performance after recovering from an injury. Chicago enters the game as a slight 2.5-point favorite.

The Bears' defense, known for its opportunistic plays, is expected to challenge Maye's recent efficiency, especially as the Patriots navigate a compromised offensive line. Conversely, Williams will face a New England defense that has been effective at limiting opponent scoring, posing a test for Chicago's offensive resurgence.
