Polymarket Offers Trading Bonus for Patriots vs. Bears Matchup

Polymarket, a prediction market platform, is offering new users a $25 trading bonus when they deposit $10 and use the promo code NYPMAX1 for the upcoming "TNF" game between the New England Patriots and the Chicago Bears.

Traders on Polymarket are projecting the Bears to have a 60 percent chance of winning the game. As of October 22, 2026, over $118,000 has been traded on this particular market.

The promotional offer is available to eligible new users in various U.S. states, including Alaska, Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Vermont, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

This promotion allows new users to utilize the $25 bonus on the Patriots vs. Bears game or any other market available on Polymarket.

Regarding the game itself, the New York Post's betting expert notes that the Bears' aggressive secondary, which excels at creating turnovers, faces a New England team led by quarterback Drake Maye, who has thrown only one interception in the Patriots' last three wins. The Patriots' offensive line will be challenged by a Bears pass rush that recorded five sacks against Atlanta in their previous game, potentially forcing Maye to make quick decisions. The Patriots' ground game, which gained 148 yards on 46 carries against the Jets, could exploit a Bears defense that ranks poorly in allowing yards before contact. The article also highlights that both teams are 4-2 and feature young franchise quarterbacks.

Trading on Polymarket involves risk, and users must be 18 or older. Eligibility requirements apply, and the platform is not available in all jurisdictions. Further details can be found on Polymarket's terms of service.
