**Dutchrudder** · 11-19-2012

The Lions play every Thanksgiving each year. Guess what year was the last time they won their Thanksgiving Day home game?

2003, against the Packers 22-14.

I think the idea that the Texans are the only team that has to deal with the short week is a bit biased. Clearly even a good Lions team like the 2011 squad, couldn't do well enough to even make the game competitive against the Packers last year. At the start of the 4th quarter, they were down 24-0, but managed a garbage time TD to make it a 27-15 loss.

I think the Lions will continue to be the Lions and will lose this game to us. Texans take it 34 - 20
