Steelers vs. Ravens: BetMGM Offers $1,500 Bonus for NFL Wild Card Game
The Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens will face off for the third time this season in the AFC Wild Card Game on Saturday at 8:00 p.m. ET. BetMGM Sportsbook is offering an exclusive promotion, allowing new users to earn up to $1,500 in bonus bets if their first wager loses. This matchup marks a pivotal moment in the NFL playoffs, with the Ravens entering as 9.5-point favorites.
The Ravens, led by MVP candidate Lamar Jackson, have dominated the regular season, boasting the league’s top rushing offense and defense. They defeated the Steelers 34-17 in Week 16 and are riding a four-game winning streak. Jackson has been instrumental, throwing three touchdowns in their last meeting and averaging 86.8 rushing yards per game in playoff appearances.
Meanwhile, the Steelers are struggling, having lost their last four games, including defeats to playoff-bound teams like the Eagles, Chiefs, and Bengals. Quarterback Russell Wilson has been under pressure, taking nine sacks in the final two games and throwing only one touchdown pass during that span.
BetMGM’s promotion is designed to attract new users. By signing up with a minimum $10 deposit and placing a qualifying wager, users can receive bonus bets matching their initial stake if the bet loses. For example, a $450 losing wager would result in five $90 bonus bets, up to a maximum of $1,500. Bonus bets expire after seven days and can be used on any sport or market.
For existing users, BetMGM offers additional promotions, including a $250,000 bonus pool for predicting the longest touchdown scorer and a “Second Chance” promotion that refunds wagers if a player scores the second touchdown instead of the first. These offers add excitement to the high-stakes Wild Card matchup.
As the Steelers aim to defy the odds and the Ravens seek to solidify their Super Bowl aspirations, BetMGM’s promotions provide fans with an opportunity to engage with the game in a new way. Gambling responsibly is encouraged, with resources available for those in need of support.
