Happy Thanksgiving! To everyone here at the Mall and your families. Enjoy the day.





Detroit Lions +7.5(-115)
Detroit is 0-6 SU and ATS in it's last six games on Thanksgiving Day. The Patriots are 32-5 SU vs. NFC teams since 2001. With that said, everything points to an easy New England win and cover but I think the Lions will come to play today. I can see this game being a shootout and Detroit will have a good opportunity late in the game to upset the Patriots. Detroit isn't any where close to as bad as their overall win-lose record(2-8) and they have a solid 7-3 ATS record this year. The Lions are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 home games and they are also 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games vs. teams with a winning record.



Cincinnati Bengals +9(-105)
Cincinnati has lost the last 8 straight games played vs. the Jets in New York. The Jets beat the Bengals last year in the playoffs. Cincinnati has a not so great 3-7 ATS record so far this year. With all that bad material mentioned, a good stat I came across earlier this week is that the Jets are 6-14 SU and 2-18 ATS in games before visiting New England. The Bengals are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games played in Week 12 and New York is also 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games played in November. Apparently the Jets haven't won a Thanksgiving Day game since 1962, which means little to this good New York team but I think they might be looking ahead. I understand that Cincinnati owns the current longest losing streak(lost 7) but tonight they will play for Marvin Lewis and his job to remain head coach there, winning this game SU.
