The NFC North kicks off the Thanksgiving tripleheader as the Packers play the Lions at Ford Field.
Surprisingly, the Packers and Lions are not in first place in the NFC North. That title belongs to the Chicago Bears, who are 8-3.
In Week 1, the Packers thoroughly dominated the Lions, winning 27-13.
The Packers are coming off a 23-6 victory over the Minnesota Vikings, while the Detroit Lions edged out the New York Giants 34-27 in overtime.
This game has massive playoff implications. The Packers are one of the three NFC Wild Card teams, while the Lions are on the outside looking in. The winner of this game will take one step closer to the postseason.
On Thanksgiving Day 2023, the Packers jumped out to a massive first-half lead before narrowly holding on to beat the Lions 29-22.

A few weeks ago, this game had little juice because the Chiefs and Cowboys were struggling.
After last weekend, this game could now be the best of the day.
Both the Chiefs and Cowboys needed dramatic second-half comebacks to come out victorious.
Down 20-9 heading into the fourth quarter, the Chiefs scored 11 points to force overtime and hit the game-winning field goal to defeat the Colts 23-20.
Meanwhile, the Cowboys were down 21-0 in the second quarter. The Cowboys held the Eagles scoreless the rest of the way, scoring 24 unanswered points to walk away with a three-point victory.
Both teams are in the playoff hunt and need a win to keep pace with the teams above them in the standings.
Because of the teams’ popularity and the stakes going in, the Chiefs versus the Cowboys could become one of the most-watched NFL regular-season games in history.

The Bengals get QB1 back as a Thanksgiving treat.
Joe Burrow will start for the Bengals on Thanksgiving night against the Ravens. This marks Burrow’s first game since injuring his toe in Week 2.
The Bengals are 3-8 and must be perfect the rest of the way to keep their postseason hopes alive.
Meanwhile, the Ravens looked like a team set to miss the playoffs at 1-5. However, Baltimore has won five straight games to get into first place in the AFC North with a 6-5 record.
Jackson holds a 6-1 record over Burrow.
