The Thanksgiving slate is full of playoff hopefuls this time around, with the Lions and Packers starting us off with Wild Card implications on the line. Later in the day, we travel to Dallas, where Rashee Rice and these Chiefs should get their offense back on track against a struggling Dallas secondary.
The Packers travel to Detroit to take on the Lions in a divisional matchup that will swing momentum in the NFC playoff race. Green Bay has won two straight against the Giants and Vikings, while Detroit sits at 7-4 coming off an OT win against the Giants at home. While Green Bay won the first matchup earlier this season, Dan Campbell and the Lions should tie the season series on Thanksgiving, having won four of their last five against Green Bay before this year. Jameson Williams will be a focal point for Detroit, and against a Packers defense that has struggled to contain Amon-Ra over these last few years, I’ll take Jamo and the Lions offense to get their revenge on primetime.
Rashee Rice is back and hasn’t missed a step, going for four touchdowns and nearly 400 yards in just five games since coming off suspension. With Dallas absolutely horrendous against opposing wideouts, allowing almost two A.J. Brown TDs this past week to a third-worst 252 opponent passing yards per game and 28.6 PPG (second-worst), I’ll take Mahomes’ favorite target to score in a near must-win game for KC on primetime.
Joe Burrow is questionable to go in this game, and even with Flacco at the helm, I am banking on one of the league’s best to have his way against the Ravens' secondary. Chase has 7 TDs in his last 5 matchups against Baltimore, including 3 TDs in their last matchup earlier this season. Baltimore has had trouble in their secondary throughout the year, and with this game expected to be high-scoring, take Chase to show out on the biggest day of the season for both teams. The Bengals offense has scored 30+ enough times this year with both Flacco and Burrow for me to stay confident in multiple touchdowns coming from both sides in this game.
