Week 13 (Thanksgiving) Predictions

Tennessee 34, Detroit 17 - The Titans travel to Detroit on a short week after their first loss of the season, an embarrassing thrashing at home to the Jets. The Lions won't be able to get much going on offense, while Chris Johnson should enjoy the lack of tackling displayed by the Lions in the last, oh... I dont know... 12 weeks.

Seattle 17, Dallas 38 - The Seahawks are still a bad team even with Matt Hasselbeck. I couldn't tell you if their starting receivers are back from injury yet, because they haven't done anything in games lately to make me want to check. At least Mike Holmgren is leaving Jim Mora, Jr. with a nice parting gift; a top 5 draft pick.

Arizona 28, Philadelphia 41 - Provided that Donovan McNabb can avoid throwing up, taking the game into overtime, or play badly enough to get benched during halftime, the Eagles are pissed, at home, and desperate. Another loss surely ends their playoff hopes, while if they can pull out a win the Redskins and the Cowboys are still not locks to get the wildcard. Factor in the crappy Cardinals (pass) defense and the fact that Kurt Warner seems to fumble 5 times a game and it's hard seeing the Cardinals coming out with the win on the road.
