For some, Thanksgiving is just another day; for others, it’s an excuse to get together with family, scarf down a turkey (maybe some mac and cheese), and enjoy each other’s company. But for the 133 million people who tuned in last year, Thanksgiving means football. The classics—the Detroit Lions (37-45-2 on the holiday) and the Dallas Cowboys (33-21-1)—host their traditional Thanksgiving Day games as usual, and this year, the Packers (15-20-2) will host the Dolphins (5-2 on turkey day).
