NFL Predictions: Week 12

Alright, football junkies. Thanksgiving week is always one of the best football weekends of the year. Games, games and more games. Let's see who is going to win........and the losers will be:

Green Bay @ Detroit: For years, this was the traditional Thanksgiving Day game. Good to see it mean something again this year. The Lions have a lot of firepower this year and are hanging on the their playoff hopes, but this is the year of the Pack. They are simply playing too good and have everything working. Close game I think, but I like Brett and the Pack. Green Bay -3.

NY Jets @ Dallas: We all keep waiting for the Dallas blow-up and it hasn't happened yet. Romo and Owens have made a solid connection and that spells trouble for everybody else. The Jets got a big OT win over Pittsburgh on Sunday, but the short week and playing in Texas is just too much for them this week. It's a big number but I like the Cowboys. Dallas -14.

Indianapolis @ Atlanta: I don't know which version of either team will show up. The Colts are beat up and struggling it seems and Atlanta, well when they are bad, they are really bad. Time for the Colts to make a statement. Indianapolis -12.

Houston @ Cleveland: You can't say enough about the job that Romeo Crennel has done this year in Cleveland. The Browns are looking like a playoff team, although they have to find some consistency overall. With that crowd and the Dawg Pound, Cleveland is too tough for Houston at home. Cleveland -3.

Philadelphia @ New England: Ok, this is starting to get ridiculous. No one should be a 3 touchdown dog in the NFL. Philadelphia +22.

Miami @ Pittsburgh: When you have to pay people to come to your games, you know you suck. Ricky "Puff, Puff, Pass" Williams may play in this game. Why not, what's the worse that can happen? Pittsburgh comes off a very tough loss in OT to the Jets and I have a feeling that Coach Mike Tomlin is going to have this team fired up. Pittsburgh -16.

Missouri @ Kansas: This game very well might end up being for a birth in the National Championship game. Without a doubt the biggest game ever in the history of this great rivalry. Kansas has been amazing this season and keeps finding new ways to win. Missouri's Chase Daniel will get some Heismann votes and along with Jeremy Macklin have provide one of the best QB-WR combos in the nation. Missouri + 2 1/2.

Good Luck, enjoy the games and Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
