**Giants at Cowboys** Thanksgiving 4:30 (-3.5, 37) (1 Viewer)

Of the 3 games on Thursday, by far this has the least appeal
Should be a great time to carve the turkey and talk/focus to all the in laws and relatives
Or pop in Planes Trains and Automobiles
 
If I were the PA guy at AT&T Stadium, I would barricade myself in the booth right before kickoff. When the offense (doesn't matter which team) breaks the huddle, I'd start playing Yakety Sax on a loop like Andy Dufresne and wait until the authorities broke down the door to stop the music. Probably with the same ####-eating grin as well.
 
Rush vs Lock! Just like the NFL schedule makers were hoping for when they set up this big game!
 
I bet FOX would rather broadcast 2 hours of a simulated game in Madden, Phil Simms squad vs Troy Aikman's classic rosters
 
It's an NFL game
You all know you'll have it on
Maybe not glued to the t.v. but it'll be on
Because we're all addicted to The NFL
Fantasy or real we are addicted
If you're on this board it's both
As for the game itself
Looks like backup quarterbacks
And maybe backup to the backup quarterbacks
Leaning the under
Tyron Tracy will score a touchdown and fumble twice
Malik and CeeDee will both lead their teams in targets
Both defenses will make a few splash plays
Brandon Aubrey will kick a 60 yard field goal
The cameras will cut to Jerry at least 10 times
The crowd will boo a few times
The score will be...

America's Former team- 23
New Jersey's Other Disaster- 13

I'm sure when they made the schedule, they were thinking, with Daniel Jones coming back, the Giants are playoff bound, this will be a big game. LOL!
 
They should make this game a "fun" one. For the fans. Maybe have numbers you can text to vote for run vs pass plays, like on American Idol. Or let them play with 12 men on the field, adding one fan from the stands from each team in jeans and sneakers playing WR vs DB. Make the 3rd quarter 7v7 flag football. Have Ceedee Lamb and Malik Nabors eat 30mg of gummies at kickoff and see how they're looking by the second half once they kick in. Put a guy on stilts and an Uncle Sam top hat in the middle of the defense. Put helium in the ball or give the opposing coach the option to release a pack of stray dogs on to the field once in the game. Something.

The anticipation of Drew Lock behind center for the New York Football Giants not electrifying enough for ya, ehh?
 
There is a scenario where Dallas could get a wildcard still. It basically requires Washington to collapse a bit, and Dallas to beat them again later this year, but its not impossible mathematically. At least that's been the talk, and hey the schedule isn't bad either so maybe, I mean stranger things have happened. The Rams were pretty much in this boat this time a year ago. Having said that, it would be the most Dallas thing to blow this game against the Giants.

I think the Giants defense plays a nice game this week, and mostly limits the Dallas offense, and I think Malik Nabers eats just like he did last time these teams played.

Upset pick for me:
Giants-24
Cowboys-17
 
Jerruh World has not aged well and it is fun to watch. Let's just hope no more large sheets of metal fall from the roof again.

The idiotic idea and absence of forethought to implement large windows into the stadium design (for what exactly, a view of the parking lot?) is the most, shall we say, glaring? Although make no mistake, the scoreboard blocking punts was fantastic.

Interesting article about the sun/stadium/impacts, and more.

Has a nation-wide holiday NFL game with no other options on TV ever scored a 0.0 rating? Time to find out!

The 2024 National Dog Show is on NBC. Watching those dogs beats watching these dogs. 🐶

Did you watch the National dog show every year the Lions were having a bad season?

I've watched every game for the last 30 plus years. But those were my dog teams, not other people's.

lol fair enough

It’s weird to me that people will not watch the game today because neither team is very good.

1 because it’s football on Thanksgiving
and
2 this is a ff board, I watch the Jags/Browns from Europe because I have someone going in ff

eta: or a prop parlay 😃

There's another Cowboys game apparently coming up on Monday Night Football that ESPN wanted to flex out but couldn't because of a Simpsons tie-in event that had already started being worked on.

didn't know you can flex out of MNF, thats crazy if you got tickets

Even more crazy, it will happen to Thursday Night Football, screwing anyone traveling to those games.
 
Actually I was just goofing around earlier, gotta at least keep track for FF purposes. All I have is Dallas K, so hoping for a 15-12 final.
 
After the paintin Manning commercial I was thinking his commercials couldn't possibly get any worse and then he goes and makes the debatin Manning commercial... and totally redeems himself
 
Was hoping Dallas threw incomplete on the 3rd down from the 45 that would set up an Aubrey 63 yard FG attempt
