Cowboys-Buccaneers Preview Features Betting Promotions

Published 8 October 2026

The Dallas Cowboys were scheduled to host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on October 8, 2026, in a Thursday night NFL game that prompted a wave of betting and prediction-market promotions. The supplied previews did not establish a final score or confirm the game’s outcome. The matchup was listed for 8:15 p.m. ET at AT&T Stadium, with Prime Video carrying the broadcast. Tampa Bay was described as entering without quarterback Baker Mayfield, while Dallas was presented as the favored team. Those assessments and the betting offers appeared in promotional previews, and offer terms varied by provider and user eligibility. Polymarket’s promotional material said eligible new U.S. accounts entering code CLEVE and depositing $10 would receive a $25 bonus, bringing total trading funds to $60. The offer was described as limited to new accounts and subject to eligibility requirements and terms. Polymarket is a prediction-market platform, where users trade positions on event outcomes, rather than a conventional sportsbook. Other advertised promotions included Fanatics offers with different terms.
