Thanksgiving Day NFL Schedule 2022: Which Teams Play Football On Turkey Day? Start Times, Odds, Best Bets
The Thanksgiving Day NFL Schedule for 2022 is going to be must-see TV for NFL fans everywhere! Turkey Day will feature three exciting match-ups, with all six teams in position to make a run at the postseason.
Leading off the day will be Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills taking on Jared Goff and the red-hot Detroit Lions. Detroit, winners of three straight, is listed as the biggest underdog of the three Thanksgiving Day games. Is an upset city on the way? We think so!
The Lions have not only won their last three games, but they have also played much better than their 4-6 record indicates. Detroit had heartbreaking losses to three of the best teams in the NFL in Philadelphia (38-35), Minnesota (28-24), and Miami (31-27). This team has shown it can play with anyone, and the spread for their upcoming game vs. Buffalo seems too big to us.
At 4:30 p.m. ET, Daniel Jones and the 7-3 New York Giants will face Dak Prescott and the 7-3 Dallas Cowboys in a huge NFC East battle. The winner of this game will remain just two games behind the 9-1 Eagles in the race for the division title. With seven games left in the regular season, this division is still up for grabs.
Finally, the nightcap will feature the surprising New England Patriots heading to the Twin Cities to square-off against Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings.
The Vikings are coming off their worst game of the season as they took an old-fashioned beatdown against Dallas on Sunday. Dallas did wherever they wanted against the Vikings in their 40-3 thrashing. Can the Vikings bounce back vs a New England team that just seems to get better each week? We believe we have the answer.
