What NFL Games Will Be Playing on Thanksgiving?
NFL Games on Thanksgiving
The NFL has a long-standing tradition of playing games on Thanksgiving. This year, there will be three games played on Thanksgiving day. The first game will be between the Chicago Bears and the Detroit Lions. The second game will be between the Dallas Cowboys and the Los Angeles Chargers. The third game will be between the New Orleans Saints and the Atlanta Falcons.
Green Bay Packers vs. Detroit Lions
The Packers and Lions have been playing each other on Thanksgiving Day since way back in 1934, making it the longest-running Thanksgiving Day tradition in the NFL. The game has been held in Detroit ever since 1934, with the exception of a few years during World War II when the game was played at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor.
Dallas Cowboys vs. Los Angeles Chargers
This year, the Dallas Cowboys will take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Thanksgiving Day. The game will be broadcast on CBS at 4:30 PM EST. The Cowboys are currently in first place in the NFC East with a record of 7-5, while the Chargers are in second place in the AFC West with a record of 9-3. This should be a great game between two playoff contenders.
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Baltimore Ravens
On Thanksgiving Day, the Pittsburgh Steelers will be playing against the Baltimore Ravens. This game will be televised on CBS at 8:20 pm EST.
