At last! NFL Week 12 picks arrive

Nowadays it is impossible to think of a Thanksgiving Day without a party of the National Football League on the tv.

Through several generations, football and Thanksgiving Day have been intertwined to form one of the greatest cultural traditions of the American people.

This year, the fourth Thursday in November is upon us with three games that will honor the memory of legendary head coach and commentator John Madden.

As has been the case since 2006, this campaign will feature three professional football matches that will bring families and friends together in front of a screen.

It will be a long weekend that will include 16 matches. Once again, all the teams jump on stage as has not happened since the fifth day of the calendar. Seven of the games will be contested by teams with a winning record against organizations below .500.

This year’s Thanksgiving games feature teams with a .650 winning percentage

Keep in mind that so far this season, 126 games have entered the fourth quarter with less than eight points difference, this is the most in NFL history for the first 11 weeks of a season. 72 games have been decided by a touchdown (six points) or less, also the most in history.

If football divides us, that the Thanksgiving be a truce.

It’s time to celebrate, eat and give touchdown hugs

GAME OF THE WEEK

Giants at Cowboys (-9.5):

Although both NFC East organizations have the same record (7-3) today, they arrive at the game on Thursday afternoon under different circumstances.

The Cowboys crushed the Vikings, while the Giants were blindsided by the Lions.

This will be the 121st time the Cowboys and Giants have met since 1960. Dallas leads all-time regular season series at 72-46-2including wins in 10 of the last 11 meetings.

It is the first confrontation that they hold in Thanksgiving since 1992, when the Cowboys won 30-3.

But it is time for us to leave history to move to the present.

Last week, Giants quarterback Daniel Jones threw for a season-high 341 yards and had two touchdowns (one passing and one rushing). However the Giants’ attack remains one-way with Saquan Barkley taking much of the ball. The Giants running back is on pace to finish the season with 500 touches of the ball.

When Tony Pollard broke the game against the Giants with a 68-yard touchdown run against Minnesota last week, marking the first time this season that Prescott completed a pass of 37 or more yards.

Giants 17-28 Cowboys

SURE PICK

Bills (-9.5) at Lions:

The world and the game has changed since 1934 when the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears met in the first nationally broadcast Thanksgiving game.

The stadiums now bring together more than 36,000 people in each of their meetings.

This Thursday morning, the team that will start the tradition receives the Bills, a team contending for the Super Bowl, but that has left victories along the way.

Through the first six games of the season, Josh Allen was the favorite for MVP. In the past four games, he’s passed for 220-plus yards just once and has thrown six interceptions.

The Lions are on a three-game winning streak, but it won’t be enough to beat Buffalo returning to Detroit in consecutive weeks.

Bills 35-28 Lions

UPSET

Patriots at Vikings (-2.5)

On Tuesday, America woke up to the news of Argentina’s surprise defeat against Saudi Arabia in the World Cup. Once again, sport proved to be the dynamic of the unexpected.

New England leads the all-time series against Minnesota, 9-4, including wins in five straight meetings. The Patriots have scored at least 45 points in each of their last two Thanksgiving appearances (2010 and 2012) and are 3-1 on the holiday under head coach Belichick.

Cousins ​​is averaging just 215.2 yards per game in his last 10 prime-time meetings (spanning 3+ seasons), topping 251 passing yards just three times and once in his last six such affairs (week 10 in 2020).. This week, he faces a Patriots defense that is clamping down on opposing passing attacks, allowing the fourth fewest passing yards per game (188.3).

There is no more to say to trust that if a surprise can be raised this Thursday, it is that of the Patriots over Minnesota.

Patriots 21-20 Vikings

TWO MINUTE DRILL

Broncos (-2) at Panthers:

If you want to stay asleep at noon tune in to this game between two of the worst offenses in living memory in any sport played in the modern era. Broncos 13-10 Panthers

Buccaneers (-3.5) at Browns:

Tom Brady and the rest of the Buccaneers took a week off after their win over the Seahawks in Munich or vacation after a work trip. Cleveland tried to fight Buffalo, but used to their history they lost again and will lose again. Buccaneers 24-13 Browns

Bengals (-1.5) at Titans:

The AFC champions are getting hot but they face the Titans, a team that last year succumbed in the postseason with them. This Sunday the Titans will get the other side of the coin. Bengals 20-23 Titans

Ravens (-4) at Jaguars:

Lamar Jackson is not coming off his best game, but he is facing a team used to losing and competing for the top picks. Ravens 28-21 Jaguars

Texans at Dolphins (13.5):

At the beginning of the text we mentioned that no team was resting this week, sorry, I was wrong, the Dolphins home game will be like a bye Sunday. Texans 14-28 Dolphins

Bears at Jets (-4.5):

The Jets tasted defeat again. Justin Fields this time of year has more legs than any marathoner. Plus Zach Wilson doesn’t play. Bears 20-17 Jets

Falcons at Commanders (-4):

One of the confrontations that fly under the radar, but that will entertain any fan. Falcons 30-28 Commanders

Chargers (-4.5) at Cardinals:

After visiting Mexico City and being away from home for two weeks, the Cardinals will enter their stadium, but again to lose. Chargers 24-20 Cardinals

Raiders at Seahawks (-3.5):

After an agonizing overtime win that made us see the Raiders still have a little blood in their veins, they fly to Seattle to return with their heads down. Raiders 17-24

Rams at Chiefs (-15):

There is not much to say when there is a 15 point difference in the prediction. The upset of the week was the defeat of Argentina against Saudi Arabia and there will be no equal. Rams 14-30 Chiefs

Saints at 49ers (-9.5):

The 49ers struck gold in Mexico City to tie the divisional lead. The push from the altitude of the Mexican capital will lead them to victory again. Saints 20-24

Packers at Eagles (-7):

The Eagles are the best team in the NFL and they’re up against the Packers who were knocked out last Thursday night. Packers 20-27 Eagles

Steelers at Colts (-2.5):

Monday Night isn’t as sexy as it used to be. The week closes with two teams that continue to talk more about their great past than their present. Steelers 17-21 Colts
