The Thanksgiving Day Football Feast
The smell of Thanksgiving turkey in the air is the sure signal that the NFL stretch drive is about to begin, and we’ve got our usual set of three games to go with the holiday feast. None of the games have the juice of last year’s Green Bay-Detroit game, with the Packers still undefeated, or of the prime-time Harbaugh Bowl of San Francisco-Baltimore, but the fare we do have is still pretty good. So let’s dive into the Thanksgiving Day football matchups ahead—Houston-Detroit, Washington-Dallas & New England-NY Jets, with a college appetizer of TCU-Texas mixed in.
