Last week, I was stuck in the middle again at 7-7.
My season total is still a feeble 75-87-3.
Thanksgiving
The Lions are 8-2 for the first time since 1962.
They improved to 9-2 that year by beating the Packers 26-14.
It was the only loss the Packers suffered that season on the way to an NFL Championship.
The Lions would finish 11-3 and play in the forgotten runner-up Playoff Bowl.
The Commanders were swept by the Giants, a team that the Cowboys 89-17.
Do the math; the only thing that could save this game is if Creed shows up and sings.
Smith returned for the final drive, but Walker did not and could miss multiple weeks.
If Seattle were healthy, they would not win this game.
Black Friday
The Jets have made a switch as Tim Boyle will start at quarterback.
The Jets are a team that is dispirited.
All the Dolphins need to do is play their normal game, and they should win easily.
Sunday at 1
The Falcons are fading fast as Desmond Ridder has regained the starting quarterback job.
It does not matter because the Falcons are misfiring in all directions.

The Saints will win a close one as the trends continue.
Expect the Steelers to come out strong with the change paying off.
Meanwhile, the Bengals face an uphill climb without Joe Burrow to remain in the playoff hunt.

Stroud earning his first win.
A win and the Texans can take over first place.
This could be an exciting game, with the Jaguars winning a close one.
Both teams are on the fringes of playoff contention.
The Colts have struggled at home, winning one of their first five games at Lucas Oil Field.
The Titans, who can’t do anything on the road, have played well at home.
Sunday Late Games
The Cardinals have been competitive with Kyle Murray back in action.
The Broncos have turned their season around, winning their last four games after starting 1-4.
Expect the trend to continue in a low-scoring affair against the Browns as DTR struggles in Denver.
The Raiders are a better team than their record indicates.
Fans declared that the Bills are back after stomping the Jets last week.
Sunday Night
This is the last chance cafe for the Chargers.
A team that has the talent to be a contender but sits at 4-6.
They have lost six close and frustrating games but always come out strong on Sunday Night.
Expect a big game from Justin Herbert as the Ravens stumble again.
Monday Night
Josh Dobbs stumbled in Denver but has played well since taking over as quarterback for the Vikings.
Look for a big game on Monday night as the rocketman tries to get Minnesota to the moon.
