The Week 13 schedule for the 2024 NFL season begins with a great slate of Thanksgiving Day matchups, and we have you covered with what you need to know for the holiday’s three matchups.
Our NFL Nation reporters bring us the biggest keys to every game, and analytics writer Seth Walder makes a bold prediction for each contest. The ESPN Research team provides a big stat to know and a betting nugget for each matchup, while our Football Power Index (FPI) goes inside the numbers with a game projection. Fantasy analyst Eric Moody finds fantasy football X factors, and three analysts — Moody, Walder and Kalyn Kahler — give us final score picks for every game. Plus, we look at the best moments from each team’s Thanksgiving history.
Let’s start with the Bears and Lions, who will meet on Turkey Day for the 20th time.
