Thanksgiving football is about as American as pretending to enjoy canned cranberry sauce.
This year’s slate of NFL Turkey Day games includes: the Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions, the Buffalo Bills and Dallas Cowboys, and the New Orleans Saints versus the Atlanta Falcons.
To help drown out the inevitable bickering between family members, BetOnline has released betting lines for the three games so you can focus on more than Grandpa’s off-color remarks.
