Thread should be named "BILLS game on Thanksgiving...Again"

 

Isn't this the third year in a row for them? Cowboys, Saints, now Lions.. geeze

The Lions have been playing on Thanksgiving longer than most of the people reading this have been alive...

The Lions and the Cowboys have played on Thanksgiving Day forever and ever and ever.

 

It's time for the NFL to shelve this yearly "turkey day tradition" and set up some fantastic matchups for the holiday.

Meh.. it's nice to have just "a game" on while I'm preoccupied with family and cooking lol. I actually prefer not having a Marquee matchup for the first game haha

Lions have been playing on Thanksgiving since 1934, record 37-45-2 current 5 year losing streak.

There is no way they should ever stop having the lions or cowboys play on Turkey day. It’s tradition I fall asleep watching them every year

I agree.   I have no issue with the Cowboys and Lions playing each year.  The game is usually on in the background.

Pass. They may not always be good games, but I like traditions generally including this one. Plus there's no way to know for sure what will be a fantastic matchup ahead of time.

I wonder what the NFL players around the league think of this? Would they like the opportunity to play on Thanksgiving as a yearly tradition for their teams periodically… or are they happy they can enjoy the holiday and not worry about being away from their families on that day? Would be interesting if they did a poll.

 

For me, I agree it would be nice to see different teams but I’m usually just happy football is on. :)

Most Colts players would probably want Thanksgiving off but if we got an easy win then 10 days off they may think otherwise.

      Exactly, as long as we are healthy going into opening day then that is all that matters.    By the way, that is one of the best and funniest posts I have seen all year in here, I have to give it a Homer laugh

      Era's are so different, it would seem LeBron could play in any era and be dominant but in the 80's and 90's the game was way more physical. How would LeBron do against a team like the 1989 Pistons for example? We don't know?, if they allowed the Pistons play by the rules they played with back then.    Regarding the Pacers their 1998 team was the best IMO. We had the Bulls beat in Game 7, I still believe we got screwed by the REFS. Whether or not we would have beat Utah is a different subject but that would have been a hell of a series. Utah would have had HCA.

      Peyton left off list?

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      Yeah I try not to let my Colts bias get in the way when I do lists, it is tough sometime. I can understand why anyone would say Randy should be ranked higher. Randy was a freak and was so tall, a QB could just throw a long one to him and on 50/50 balls, he would catch it.    I have gone back and forth over the years regarding Peyton and Tom. My Colts bias says Peyton is the GOAT, he is also my favorite player of all-time so I hate, let me repeat I hate putting Tom #1. I just factor in everything but saying Peyton is #3 isn't a dis , that is practically saying he is damn near the GOAT. I have Montana 2nd because I felt like during the 80's which had all kinds of great teams, he won 4 SB's and was flawless in those SB's. You don't get anymore clutch than him.   I get the Emmitt Smith hate on this board, most here hate the Cowboys but once again when ranking players people should put that aside IMO. Otherwise the list becomes who somebody loves and hates.
