Thanksgiving is a time for food, family and football, so much football. The NFL Thanksgiving Games are a legendary part of the festivities across the pond – and they’re popular in the UK too.
British fans are accustomed to staying up until all hours to soak up NFL action, but this Thursday will see three games back to back, starting from 5:30pm.
The Detroit Lions – Thanksgiving Day stalwarts since 1934 – host the Chicago Bears, while the Dallas Cowboys – also mainstays on the big day – take on the New York Giants.
If that’s not enough for you, the foolhardy can brave the timings to soak up the Green Bay Packers against the Miami Dolphins, while Black Friday boasts the Kansas City Chiefs versus the Las Vegas Raiders.
There’s so much going on across the league right now as we approach the business end of the campaign, but there’s still so much to play for as the play-offs begin to come into view.
