Football & eating are My co-favorite on Thanksgiving.
Have A safe & happy Thanksgiving everybody.
Starting next year this is how the Thanksgiving NFL games should be determined:
Detroit and Dallas would host the home opponents they have with the longest active Thanksgiving droughts, which would have been LA Rams and Tampa Bay, respectively, this year.
The first team for the primetime game would be the team not playing at Detroit or Dallas with the longest active Thanksgiving drought, and they would play the team on their schedule with the longest active Thanksgiving drought, which would have made the night game Cleveland at Jacksonville, the first ever Thanksgiving appearance for the Jaguars as an epic 30th anniversary present.
Sorry Z-Man My choice for Thanksgiving primetime game next year would be Buffalo at Pittsburgh.
As a Eagles Fan I like to see them play at Cowboys My favorite rivalry in NFL & Lions host NFC South Team in Detroit.
Also Z-Man hope you had a nice Thanksgiving My Friend.
