Thanksgiving Day Picks


 

Houston @ Detroit (+3.5)

Total logic pick here.  Last week, Chad Henne threw for 354 yards on Houston.  Justin Blackmon went off for 236 yards receiving.  Now everyone knows that Matt Stafford is twice the QB that Henne is and that Calvin Johnson is 3 times as good as Blackmon.  Therefore, both Stafford and Megatron finish with 708 yards.  Besdies, who the hell wants to be anywhere near Detroit on a holiday?  Take the Lions and the points here.

 

Washington @ Dallas (-3)

The current incarnation of the Cowboys is like that blackhead everyone gets in the same spot.  No matter who many times you get rid of it, it keeps showing up again.  RG III is legit even without any offensive talent of which to speak but the Redskins D is the NFL equivalent of the Buffs.  Tony Romo is choking machine at home but I hear Dez Bryant doesn’t wear his pants on the ground anymore.  Take Dallas and give the 3.

 

New England  @ NYJ (+7)

I usually don’t like to take Road teams on holidays.  However, the Patroits are a bunch of cheating bastards.  Their coaching staff has all the collective humanity and decency of Darth Vader’s ventilator.  I don’t like this game and might go the other way if it were a 7.5 spread.  However, the Jets need Fat Rex in order to win anything and he looks like Icabod Crane now after a season of dealing with the Dirty Sanchez and the Tebow hype machine.  Plus, New York Jets fans are idiots.  Take the evil Empire and give the 7 today.
