thanksgiving slate

Lions at home are a double-digit underdog.
Cowboys at home are a double-digit favorite.

Would it kill them to give us a competitive game on Thanksgiving? (And no I don't even get NFL network on the road, so I'm stuck with just the two early games).

Over the last 5 years: Detroit is 0-5, Dallas is 4-1.

The last game to not follow this trend was Denver over Dallas in 2005, 24-21 OT.

And yet for Pigskin Pickem, I'm taking the points with the Lions. Why? Because I hate getting picks right. I'm laying the Cowboys because I hate the Raiders.
