Games to Watch (Predicted winners in Bold)

Thursday, Nov. 22, 2012, 4:15pm – Washington Redskins @ Dallas Cowboys

Let’s be real, almost everyone in the country will watch at least part of all three Thanksgiving games, and when we aren’t watching it’ll be playing in the background as we gather around the TV and talk with family. But if any of the games deserves your undivided attention, it’s this division rivalry. At least the Skins won’t jump ship in the NFC East and ruin this biannual rivalry matchup.

Sunday, Nov. 25, 2012, 1:00pm – Pittsburgh Steelers @ Cleveland Browns

The 1:00 games don’t look all that enticing, but this one should be interesting. The Browns would love another win, and when better than in a game against a division rival who will be starting their third string quarterback?

Sunday, Nov. 25, 2012, 1:00pm – Minnesota Vikings @ Chicago Bears

The Vikings have been inconsistent after a strong start to the season but the Bears have been unimpressive against good teams. The Vikings are an okay team, but the way Chicago has played the past two weeks, that may be all it takes to beat them.

Sunday, Nov. 25, 2012, 4:25pm – San Francisco 49ers @ New Orleans Saints

The 49ers have had a few fantastic games out of both of their quarterbacks. The Saints have fought back to a .500 record but their one win against a good team, the Falcons, looks a little less significant every week. But the game is in the Superdome.

Sunday, Nov. 25, 2012, 8:20pm – Green Bay Packers @ New York Giants

Neither team has been great the past few weeks, but the Giants were in dire need of the bye week. Coming off of it they’ll look to Eli Manning to bounce back from three very bad games in which he has thrown no touchdowns and four interceptions.

Stay tuned for recaps of this week’s games. Thanks for reading and enjoy the twelfth week of the season!
