Watson plays great against bad teams with nothing on the line. No pressure, throwing to wide-open receivers- he is amazing. Glad we didn't draft this guy-we never would have won a playoff game. [Reply]

I thought you found yourself a genie in a bottle and are trying to figure out what three wishes to make.
You should start more threads that start discussions that nobody in the NFL will give a flip about. [Reply]

Not to mention... if you play the snoozers on Thanksgiving and people are tuned in, you still have an audience tuning in on Sunday. If you played the best games on Thanksgiving, ratings on the Sunday noon Dallas and Lions games would be garbage. [Reply]
I think it should be a "winner stays" type of thing. Whoever wins gets to host the next year, until they lose. This makes things fun, because it gives you a reason to cheer for a game that might otherwise be meaningless. You'd be cheering for the Texans if they played the chiefs next year, as an example. It would also be a fun competition of "what team can hold the Thanksgiving streak the longest". And it solves the problem of having two crappy franchises hogging two spots through a decade where both aren't very good. [Reply]
Keep it like it is. As others have said...thanksgiving is happening.
Unless we are playing I usually don’t sit and watch anyway. Pure thanksgiving background. [Reply]
