HANK’S HONEYS: The Lions aren’t pushovers anymore after three straight SU W’s and the Bills have had issues overlaying these massive spreads since their early-season fireworks present has fizzled some. The Lions’ numbers aren’t good however they make up for it with grittiness and must be up for his or her one look on nationwide TV. Josh Allen, even when his elbow nonetheless isn’t 100%, ought to see some favorable matchups towards the Detroit secondary. But the Lions can reply on offense. Their stout O-line does job of defending Jared Goff, who does fairly effectively towards the blitz. Teams have been throwing on the Bills and the Lions can preserve them off stability with Jamaal Williams lugging the turkey.
IF I WERE A BETTING MAN: Lions and the over.
GIANTS at COWBOYS
4:30 p.m., Cowboys by 9 ½, 45 ½
HANK’S HONEYS: A brief turnaround following a convincing loss and a slew of accidents for the Giants has pushed this line as much as a loopy quantity for a pair of 7-3 groups. But Thanksgiving Day video games are likely to get away from guests and this one is stuffed with warning indicators for Big Blue. Wink Martindale’s blitzing scheme, which labored so effectively till final week, depends on man-to-man protection to carry up however with inexperience at each CB spots, the Giants must both play with fireplace or change their complete defensive character. The Dallas D acquired its mojo again final week and may give attention to Saquon Barkley, who is perhaps carrying down some beneath the season-long workload. The first assembly, with Cooper Rush at QB for the Boys, wasn’t as shut as the ultimate rating. This one is not going to be shut interval.
IF I WERE A BETTING MAN: Cowboys and the over.
PATRIOTS at VIKINGS
8:20 p.m., Vikings by 2 ½, 42 ½
HANK’S HONEYS: We’ve seen Bill Belichick do that earlier than. Take the air out of the ball, take away your greatest offensive weapon and make you play on his phrases. We’ve additionally seen Kirk Cousins do that earlier than, shrinking within the nationwide highlight. He’s been susceptible to strain and generally careless with the ball and the New England protection is able to creating that sort of state of affairs. After being tossed round by the Cowboys go rush, Cousins has a brief week to get his physique prepared for a equally fierce Pats entrance led by Matt Judon, with LT Christian Darrisaw shelved. The query is whether or not the moribund Patriots offense can rating sufficient factors to drag off the upset. If they win the sphere place battle they’ll. The Vikings hand over so much by way of the air and haven’t been nice towards the run recently.
IF I WERE A BETTING MAN: Patriots and the beneath.
