NOV. 25 — THANKSGIVING EVE


Green Bay Packers @ Los Angeles Rams

Spread: Rams -3.5

Moneyline: Rams -198, Packers +164

O/U: 49.5

The Rams went 12-5 last season (second in the NFC West) and were one win away from the Super Bowl, falling to division rival Seattle in the NFC Championship.

 Entering this year, they are favored to win it all, after adding Trent McDuffie to the secondary. As for the Packers, they finished second in the NFC North (9-7-1) and lost to division rival Chicago in the wild-card round. 


NOV. 26 — THANKSGIVING DAY


Chicago Bears @  Detroit Lions

Spread: Lions -2.5

Moneyline: Lions -126, Bears +108

O/U: 53.5


A classic NFC North rivalry game. Despite the Bears winning the division last season (11-6), and the Lions finishing last (9-8) and missing the playoffs, Detroit did sweep Chicago. The Lions smashed the Bears in Week 2 (52-21) and then closed the regular season with a 19-16 win over Chicago.


Philadepphia Eagles @  Dallas Cowboys

Spread: Cowboys -1.5

Moneyline: Cowboys -116, Eagles -102

O/U: 49.5 


Arguably the biggest rivalry in the NFL. The two NFC East foes split the regular-season series, with Philadelphia outscoring Dallas 45-44 across the two games. The Cowboys missed the playoffs last year after finishing the regular season at 7-9-1, second in the division. The Eagles (11-6) won the division and were the defending champions entering the postseason, but fell in the wild-card round to San Francisco. 


Kansas City Chiefs @ Buffalo Bills

Spread: Bills -2.5

Moneyline: Bills -142, Chiefs +120

O/U: 50.5


How will Patrick Mahomes look? Chances are he will be back on the field for Kansas City after tearing his ACL at the end of last season. But will he be the Mahomes of old? The Chiefs (6-11) missed the playoffs last season for the first time in forever, while the Bills (12-5) lost a heartbreaker to Denver in the divisional round. Josh Allen is 5-1 against Mahomes in the regular season all-time.
