Thanksgiving Tripleheader Picks!

Last Week's Record: 7-5-2
Overall Record: 72-80-8
(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)

Philadelphia (+2) over DETROIT: I'm giving the Eagles one last chance to redeem themselves and right the ship on their season. If they don't, then expect the Chip Kelly to college rumors to ramp up over the next few weeks.

DALLAS (PICK) over Carolina: The Cowboys got a win last week with Tony Romo back, and now they host the 10-0 Panthers on Thanksgiving day. I can see the Cowboys coming out, playing with fire, and ending Carolina's undefeated run here in 2015.

Chicago (+8) over Green Bay: The Packers got on track last week with their win over the Vikings in Minnesota. At 7-3, they can make a run at their division and even a bye. The Bears lost a close one to Denver and now stand at 4-6, so their season is essentially on the line here. Great setting for this game: Lambeau Field, Thanksgiving, a classic rivalry and the Packers are retiring Brett Favre's number. All of those factors add up to a  Packer victory, but I think the Bears get the backdoor cover at the end.
