It opened as per tradition with the Detroit Lions on the field on NFL Thanksgiving Day and the best team in the NFC lived up to expectations. Tenth consecutive victory for coach Dan Campbell’s Lions, increasingly at the top of the NFC and now one step away from mathematically qualifying for the Playoffs. A victory against the Packers on Thursday night next week would guarantee a place in the postseason, waiting to see if they can have the advantage of playing at home by winning the division. Against the Chicago Bears, Detroit immediately takes control of the game, but in the second half the talent of Caleb Williams emerges, making enormous growth compared to a rather complicated start to his NFL career. At 23-20 with a few seconds left the Bears have the chance to tie the game with a field goal or even win it, but a crazy management of the clock by the Chicago coach costs the Bears their sixth consecutive defeat and coach Ebberflus the bench , sacked a few hours after the match.
NBA, Dallas beats the disastrous Giants. Super Tua is not enough in Miami
At the AT&T Stadium in Arlington the Dallas Cowboys host the Thanksgiving Day afternoon game as always and easily beat the disastrous and disastrous New York Giants. It took Dallas a quarter to take control of the game and manage the pace of the game, helped by a defense led by Overshown, who scored a touchdown after interception of Drew Lock. The Cowboys finally manage to grind out rushing yards, Dowdle closes the game with 22 carries for 112 yards and a touchdown and at the end of the third quarter the score says 27-10 Dallas. With a 10-0 run in the fourth period New York manages to at least save face, a game that leaves no one happy ends 27-20. Dallas now out of the playoffs worsens its positioning in next year’s draft, the Giants demonstrate that they are probably the worst franchise in the NFL at the moment. Defeat that ends the playoff hopes for the Miami Dolphins at home to the Packers, despite Tua Tagovailoa’s 37 out of 46 for 365 yards and two touchdowns. Miami, however, started very badly, immediately ceding the game to Green Bay, who started with a 14-0 run in the first quarter and went into halftime ahead 24-3. The reaction of the second half is not enough for Miami, it ends 30-17 for the Packers who thus rise to nine victories and three defeats, while the Dolphins stopped at five victories and seven defeats are effectively out of the NFL Playoffs.
