With Thanksgiving just around the corner, let’s go through the three games the NFL will be offering to us on Thanksgiving which is one of the best days of the year for not only holidays, but for sports. Let’s go through each game and give my thoughts on it.
Buffalo Bills vs Detroit Lions
The Detroit Lions faced off against the Buffalo Bills to start off Thanksgiving and what a game. This was as the Buffalo Bills squeaked out a 28-25 win as this game was back and forth until the last few seconds when the Bills rallied down the field and kicked the game winning field goal. With many fans and media members predicting this game was going to be a blowout, I predicted it was going to be a close match up and I was pretty spot on, Josh Allen played pretty well overall but did struggle coming out of the second half, and looked to hurt himself during the game winning drive, but did finish the game and look to move on to week 12.
Dallas Cowboys vs New York Giants
The Dallas Cowboys train keeps rolling as they blew out the New York Giants, even though the box score looks like it was a close game. The Giants didn’t play well, and once again really struggled on offense. Credit to the Cowboys defense as they completely shut down Saquon Barkley and the Giants run game and forced New York to beat them with the passing game. As Dallas advances to 8-3 on the year the Giants fall to 7-4 as they want to bounce back next week. Cowboys win 28-20.
Minnesota Vikings vs New England Patriots
The Minnesota Vikings squeaked out a win against the New England Patriots and with a crazy ending the Vikings almost lost it as Mac Jones barely overthrew Nelson Agholor late in the fourth quarter, credit to the Vikings as the advance to 9-2 and basically solidify the NFC North, and a playoff spot in the NFC. The patriots on the other hand struggled on defense which isn’t usually what you see from the Patriots. Vikings win 33-26
