Giants have to handle business with Detroit, which I believe they will. Dallas has a tough road game with the Vikings and a loss there could have a major impact on the Boys season.
There is a reason Dallas rarely loses on Thanksgiving
I find this to be irritating. They need to move off of Dallas playing every thanksgiving at HOME. It’s an unfair advantage. Teams have to play thur games and Dallas knows every year it’s them at home. Let them go on the road. It won’t ruin thanksgiving nfl tradition.

I was just complaining about this to my buddy. I don't understand why THIS tradition is the one the NFL feels like they have to keep. No one wants to watch Detroit get their ass beat every year at 1 and no one wants to watch the Cowboys every year. Mix it up a little bit, it's ridiculous.
Who Could ever forget the famous Leon Lett gaffe after Dallas had blocked a potential game winning FG against Miami, gicing Miami a second chance to kick the game winner? Never forget the look on Jerry Jones's face after just second earlier raising his arms in victory
that's why they are on every Thanksgiving. In 1975-76 Pete Rozell tried to do what everyone is suggesting, no Dallas on Thanksgiving. Well the ratings tanked with St. Louis and Dallas returned to its usual spot.
This year Dallas has the top rated game, just this past week against Green Bay. They are also 2nd against Cincinnati week two. The next two weeks against Minnesota and NY on Thanksgiving might give Dallas the top four rated games of the year. Dallas still has Philadelphia on Christmas eve, another possible ratings bonanza.
Just look at every year at the top rated games in the NFL and you will find Dallas plays on the vast majority of them.
I was just discussing this with a friend. Living in North Jersey we are able to watch 13 out of the 17 Dallas games on regular TV. There is not a single team in the NFL that can do that outside of their home market.
should be coming off their bye week. That (plus TNF) just seems unfair.
The team that has a great advantage this year is Minnesota. They play Dallas at home and then play NE at home on Thanksgiving. Then they have 10 days off for their next opponent, the Jets, also at home.
Three games in 15 days and no travel.

So you live in North Jersey....and you're oh so lucky to watch them every week because everyone watches the applebees of the NFL---that's....great.

I've been a fan since '68. Dandy Don to Bullet Bob.
Or
Dal @ Minn, then home NYG?

Right now the pressure is on Dallas.

31-22, .585 on Thanksgiving, all-time.
300-172, .636 at home, all-time.

On the other hand, Washington has a bye between the two games against NYG, while the Giants play the Eagles that week.
On a related note, it will be interesting to see how that bye week influences Rivera's thinking regarding Heinicke vs. Wentz.
