Happy Thanksgiving! It's always nice to celebrate a holiday founded upon the idea of eating obscene amounts of food and watching football all day.......errr......well, a quick google/wikipedia search seems to suggest that wasn't the actual idea behind Thanksgiving. Regardless, we will be thankful for the opportunity.
Houston Texans (-3) @ Detroit Lions - Lions always get one of the Thanksgiving games, but that doesn't mean they have any advantage. They still seem to be in disarray, while the Texans look like one of the most complete teams in the league. Texans cover (under 49.5), Texans 27 - Lions 20
Washington Redskins (+3.5) @ Dallas Cowboys - RG3 is coming off of a spectacular game while the Cowboys are trying to bounce back from a near loss to the Browns. I just can't trust the Cowboys, and they never seem to have any advantage at home. I feel like this will be a close game, so I'll take the points (over 47.5). Redskins 28 - Cowboys 27
New Englan Patriots (-6.5) @ New York Jets - I still don't buy the Jets at all. And even without the Gronk, New England is still a scary team. They are never afraid to run up the score, especially against their hated rivals. I'll say they cover and stay under 49. Patriots 31 - Jets 13
And while I feel a little uneasy about picking three road teams on the short week, I still like all three games. I'll actually toss all 3 into the "Pick-6" section, so let's see what the visitors can do!
