Eight things to watch for during Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday games

There are a few extra chairs at the festive table this season.

In addition to the standard three Thanksgiving Day games being played, the NFL will also hold its second annual Black Friday game as part of the festivities.

Thursday starts with the Lions hosting the Bears in the team’s first game of the season, with Detroit riding a nine-game win streak and Chicago losers of five straight. The middle course is a battle of backup QBs, with the Cowboys hosting the Giants in Dallas.

Make sure you leave room for dessert too. The suddenly boiling Miami Dolphins head to Green Bay for a cold night against the Packers.

And when you get back from a long day of shopping, you can look forward to the Chiefs hosting the Raiders on Friday afternoon. If last year’s Christmas crowds at Arrowhead are any indication, this one could be interesting.

The holiday quartet of games offers something for everyone. So fill your plates all day on Thursday and make sure you have an extra portion on Friday. There will be plenty of football to enjoy this holiday season, which is something everyone should be thankful for.
