Teams playing on Thanksgiving

Packers @ Lions 1:00pm

Chiefs @ Cowboys 4:30pm

Bengals @ Ravens 8:20pm

On Friday, Bears @ Eagles 3:00pm

Are there any trends that affect a team's performance the week before having to play on Thanksgiving? 

Thanks in advance 

I think it can be a tough spot if you have a less important (ie: non conference or non division) game combined with a more important one on the holiday but KC is sitting at 5-5, Detroit is in 3rd place in the NFC North and off a loss, and then the Cowboys and Eagles basically cancels each other out since they play each other. Ravens have a division game on Thanksgiving but if you want to look at that as a spot to fade them the week before, you have to put money on the Jets. No thank you.

All those teams are at home this week including the Bears so I really don't see it as a letdown spot, Chicago is in first place and it's their nemesis Rodgers coming to town so i imagine they will be ready to play too

2-8 ATS so limited day because I eliminate enough to make the record consistently bad

n:day=Thursday and day = Sunday and month = 11 and game number > 10 and no:division=t:division and season>2007 and line<-5 and p:points<38

next game is Thursday 

this game is on Sunday this game takes place after week 10 next game are favorites this game in November next game is a division matchup and the current line is -5.5 or higher the favorite scored less than 38 points in their last game.  

play against

Ravens

Lions 

Packers

day = Sunday and F and no:division = t:division and n:day = Thursday and month = 11 and game number>9 and n:line<-2

the overs in the data search are 12-24 so the unders are in play for:

Lions and Ravens 

Cowboys are 10-5 ats 13-2 SU the game before Thanksgiving since 2010

Thanks 

also of note the Raven and Lions qualify as a high winning % 31-5 SU so obviously the schedulers set this game up nicely for the next Thursday favorites.  

support for a moneyline parlay = Ravens  and Lions 

The look ahead lines were...

Packers @ Lions -3 (48.5)

Chiefs -3.5 @ Cowboys (51.5)

Bengals @ Ravens -7.5 (52.5)

Bears @ Eagles -7 (44.5)

That Lions/Packers game is tough

Packers + whatever is a crime! that Lions Defense is so ass!!! Jameis W Winston threw all over that D today!

Chiefs look straight like shit! but after this Cowboys comeback, everyone will be on them to WIN on thanks giving, I like Mahomes as shitty as he have looked.

Ravens minus anything at this point! They might not lose another game!

Eagles going to blow this game on SNF and people will buy the BS Bears! Give me the Eagles to kick some ass this game!

I wonder why Tupac got canceled?

If you told me that the Bears and Eagles would both be 8-3 heading into this game, that would be a hard sell. But here we are.

@undermysac

 Eagles will be pumped up and pissed off. They need this game in the worst way.

Isn't there a team that always or has a high % of losing on thanksgiving? Can't remember

2 great games last year...38-35  or something like that...

Burrow returns ......51.5   windy night in Bmore...

Dallas is 3-11 ATS, 10-4 over the last 14 thanksgivings.  though they have won/covered their last 2

@bigred84

 Ain't no way I can spot Cincy 7, Ravens may very well cover but it just doesn't seem like a smart wager to me.

p:DW and D and day=Thursday and season>2014

3-20 SU, 6-17 ATS

fade Dallas

------
conversely on Dallas, teams that went to OT and their opponent didnt with 3 days rest are good fades:

p:overtime=1 and op:overtime=0 and p:day=Sunday and day=Thursday

6-22 SU

5-23 ATS

fade Det, KC

How in the world does Detroit get back up after that rollercoaster game against the Giants and face the Packers on Thursday? While GB was basically in cruise control and didn’t have to work very hard to beat Minnesota…

Imo, one of these will win & one will lose.

exactly.  they are just trends and nothing more
