Merry Thanksgivingmas. We had a bad week in Week 11, as the Miami Dolphins had their worst home outing of the entire season, the Los Angeles Chargers wide receivers forgot how to catch and the Detroit Lions struggled mightily with the lowly Chicago Bears.
Additionally, Taylor Swift had to reschedule her concert in Brazil, so she was unable to facilitate the merging of two powerful families in Kansas City, as was planned. Without her in attendance, the Chiefs predictably lost. Sportsbooks should refund all Chiefs tickets because the NFL world was under the assumption K.C.’s most important weapon would be active for “Monday Night Football.” I’m not joking I’m actually mad.
Here’s a look at what I’m thinking this week. As always, credit to the CBS Sports research team for making me sound smart.

Featured Game | Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers
I’ll bite on the Lions … again. They have covered the spread just once over the last four games, but are 4-0 SU and ATS in their past four matchups vs. the Packers. Plus, Green Bay will be without Aaron Jones and Darnell Savage, while Jaire Alexander, De’Vondre Campbell, AJ Dillon and Dontayvion Wicks are questionable to play.
The Lions are clearly the better team. When these two squads met last month, the Lions won by eight points and held a 24-0 lead at halftime. Detroit will be rocking for Thanksgiving.
The pick: Lions -8
Projected score: Lions 31-20
