Thanksgiving Day Football Live Thread: Titans Vs Lions, Seahawks Vs Cowboys, Cardinals Vs Eagles
The Titans Are Thankful For The Lions As A Rebound Game After Their First Loss [Turkey Day Live Thread]
Happy Thanksgiving!!!



On Thanksgiving day, we have three excellent games two excellent games one excellent game on pretty good game on the slate, and a couple more that probably should be huge blowouts.

The 10-1 Titans play the 0-11 Lions at12:30 EST in a game that might feature the largest difference between win-loss records ever between week 13 opponents. I'm not sure about that, and I completely made it up, but it certainly seems possible, since the only way it could be worse would be if the Titans hadn't choked last week against the Jets.

90% are picking the Titans to win this one, and I can't argue with that at all. The Lions are absolutely awful, and have an uncanny ability to find a way to lose. My pick: Titans 27, Lions 9
 

At 4:15, the Seahawks play the Cowboys. The Cowboys are back in the swing of things with a healthy Tony Romo, and the Seahawks are... well, they're as bad as we've seen them in years. Seriously, the last time they were this bad was way back in 1992. Ouch.

92% picked the Cowboys to win, and 92% of people will be absolutely correct, if you ask me. They're just a mess in Seattle right now, and a road game against a revitalized Cowboys team is not exactly what the doctor ordered. My pick: Cowboys 38, Seahawks 17


The Cardinals and Eagles will wrap things up in Philly at 8:15. This looks to be the best game of the day, as it's the only one featuring two teams with more than 2 wins. The Eagles are favored in this one, but you have to wonder how his benching last week affected Donovan McNabb, and if the Eagles will be able to contain and/or compete with the Cardinals' high powered offense.

72% of FanIQ picked the Cardinals to win, despite the Eagles being a 3 point favorite. As long as Kurt Warner is throwing to Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald, that's not a bad pick. My pick: Cardinals 31, Eagles 27


Have a happy Thanksgiving everyone! If you're watching the game and online, feel free to chat it up here, or on the game pages. Don't forget to make your picks today and every day for the NFL Pick 'Em contest. Also, if you haven't yet, take our NFL Plasma poll for a chance to win a 50" plasma screen TV!

Have a great day, and enjoy the games!

I don't know when the NFL's television contracts are up, but after today, I would love to see something like that "NBC flex" schedule applied to Thanksgiving.  Let the country see the best six teams play, or something close to that.  I appreciate the Lions' and Cowboys' traditions (I miss seeing Barry Sanders on Thanksgiving) but I think it's okay to turn the page.

I'm with Pat.  McNabb is doing what he's done for seemingly-ever... live off of a fast 4 or 5 game start and then suck (and then sometimes getting hurt after that.)  Cards win 31-20.

This is my 38th year watching the Lions on Thanksgiving, good or bad. This day is for every Lions fan, young and old, to continue the great tradition, for the 69th time. I do wish they would take those UGLY throwback uniforms, and throw them away.!!

And I picked the Cardinals this week.  I know it will backfire, picking them on the east coast, but Philly is just simply bad.

This is even going worse than I expected somehow. Thank you NFL for allowing this trash to be shown every Thanksgiving. The Cowboys/Seahawks won't be any better either.

Wow... 84 yards rushing in the first quarter for Chris Johnson. Glad I started him in my fantasy teams.

The scary thing is the Lions have been terrific in the first half lately, yet still get destroyed.

Why is Lendale White talking to the camera? I thought he ain't got no conversation for nobody.

Incredibly, the worst thing about this hasn't been the Lions. That halftime show... I wish I had those 5 minutes of my life back.

This has been some delightfully awful football.  Of course, the one game that might be decent has to be NFL Network, which my grandparents don't have...

Well, don't the Cardinals have the worst record among West-Coast teams traveling East? 21-0! McNabb 10/11 2 TD's!

I'll one up you my friend.  Try being that one guy in the fantasy football league that DOESNT start Brian Westbrook against the Cardinals. 

Steve Slaton better had a monster game against the Jaguars
