Cannot wait for thanksgiving football.

Bears-Lions
Cowboys-Eagles
Niners-Seahawks.

I am so ready.

 

I completely agree, I never wanted him. I'm hoping we tank it the rest of the season, we need a Mariota type.

Wow, these 3 games are actually very good matchups

Niners-Seahawks is gonna be legendary. However, even with both teams sporting a 7 win record, they are both on their way down to being subpar teams again, and the niners recent performance against a complete shit redskins was shaky at best
Cowboys thanksgiving games are always fun, but I'm not sure how close it will be against Mark Sanchez, who is playing only slightly better than the disastrous performance he put on for the Jets. I'm a big Cowboys fan, but I still enjoy a close game
Bears-Lions could be a good game, but I have little to no interest in either team, although the Matthew Stafford-Calvin Johnson hookup intrigues me

 

I think it being a divisional set of games we will see very hotly contested ball-games. The division games in the NFL are usually closely contested because of the familiarity the teams have with each other. I too will be rooting for the Cowboys to rip the Shegles a new one.

As for Seattle-San Fran, I don't think it's so much that they're regressing, but more-so that the NFC is just incredibly deep and not top-heavy like the AFC is. The game will also automatically be 100x more interesting because the loser = all but dead in the playoff race.

I gotta go with Seattle to win that, despite it being at SF. San Fran has just not had that "it" factor this year. Neither has Seattle really, but they laid the ass-beating of a lifetime on the Cardinals today. The defense just absolutely made them their bitch today.

As for the Bears-Lions, the Lions are now no longer at the top of the division, I expect their legendary + typical collapse in the second half of the season. Wouldn't be surprised at all if the Bears won.

 

I'm gonna go with San Fran to win that one. Seattle absolutely dominates at home, what with the 12 man noise factor and all that. They ripped the Cardinals a new one (in Seattle), who are a good up and coming team, and, even with a moderate schedule, have been playing quite well. However, San Fran might not be as good as the previous year, but they still have enough fire to get past Seattle at home on Thanksgiving.

Matthew Stafford makes a lot of rookie mistakes, even though he was drafted nearly 5 years ago (in 09 I think, maybe 10?). The Lions are great at making second half collapses, but the Bears are nothing special, whose most recent claim to fame was all the way back in Super Bowl XLI, in 2007. Rex Grossman (that guy was the pure definition of random, he either played complete shit or phenomenal) with Brian Urlacher leading a top-tier defense. That was a good 7-8 years ago, and haven't really done anything since. Lions will win this one.

As for the Cowboys game, the Eagles can't do much with Mark Sanchez attempting to fill in the massive shoes of Nick Foles accuracy

 

Damn been avoiding NFL news all day since I haven't seen the Pats game yet and then I see in spam forum via AutismMan that we beat the lions lol

34-9 against the best defense in the league, that bodes well for the playoffs

 

Brady is on an insane hot streak

 

Lions D is not better than Seattle's D or Cards D IMO.

Statistically maybe, but talent wise nah. Seahawks showed their dominant D again yesterday.

That said, the Patriots would still beat either of those teams.

 

Not sure why they played soft zone all game, allowed for easy completions. A head scratching scheme for sure.

 

Thanksgiving day gonna be so great, cowboys vs eagles

 

Cardinals D had hard matchup the past few weeks but have proven to stay strong. 7 sacks on Russell Wilson? That's pretty crazy.

 

you're forgetting mark sanchez (he makes a ton of mistakes, and even though his 300 yards per game 3 games in a row looks impressive, he's still a below average QB)

 

Gooooooo Cowboys in that game.

Dez Bryant gonna rip that weak ass secondary a new arse hole.

 

That was some of the craziest shit I've witnessed in sports.

 

Imagine the grip strength necessary for that, absolutely ridiculous

 

If the bears win this game they're actually back in the wild card race. Detriot will tank like they always do and the Packers will win the division. As for the Cowboys I think this year it's their division with Sanchez at QB for eagles.

 

Agree 110 percent.

Chase + Ryan's Lions = epic chokers.
