Thanksgiving Day Game Predictions

Here is what my algorithm predicts for the thanksgiving Day games.  I’ll publish the rest in another post.

Game Algorithm Predicts Personal Comments
titans – 11 @ Lions
Total: 44
Take the titans.  The algorithm also predicts 44 points will be scored so it cannot pick the over/under You have to be kidding me.  This –11 should be a first quarter spread.
Seahawks +12.5 @ Cowboys
Total: 46.5
Take the Seahawks (and the points) as well as the under. My algorithm is not kind to the Cowboys.  My rating system is not impressed yet with the Cowboys.
Cardinals +3 @ Eagles
Total: 47
Take the Cardinals and the over I am pretty surprised by this line.  I know the Cardinals haven’t really impressed on the road and they are going West to East, but you would still have to go with Arizona.

 

I am an American who lives in Australia.  The Lions game starts at 4:30am.  Would you get up at 4:30am to watch the Lions play any game?  My wife works the early shift on Friday at the hospital so we normally get up at 4:45am on Friday morning.  My dilemma is whether I sacrifice 15 minutes of sleep for this game.

I think any Australian who actually gets up for this game deserves a reward from the NFL.  I suggest a gift certificate good for a free session with a psychologist of choice.
