Welcome to the Friday edition of the Pick Six newsletter!It's actually a miracle there's even a newsletter today and that's because my fingers have been cramping up all morning, which probably has something to do with the 11 pounds of turkey and 19 slices of pumpkin pie I ate on Thanksgiving.Besides eating yesterday, I also spent nine straight hours watching football, which was actually pretty difficult and that's because I wanted to spend seven of those hours taking a nap. However, I'm glad I didn't take a nap, because there were some pretty wild games yesterday and we'll be covering them all in today's newsletter, so let's get to the rundown.Remember, your job this weekend is to get as many people you know to sign up for the newsletter.

Today's show: Recapping all three Thanksgiving gamesAfter spending Gary Harris Jersey Thanksgiving Day with my family, I moved on and spent Thanksgiving night with my podcasting family aka Will Brinson and Ryan Wilson. The three of us stayed up extra late last night so that we could recap all three games that were played on Thursday. Here are a few key aspects of each game that we touched on: win dramatically over .With Matt Nagy on the hot seat, the Bears slightly cooled things down for him with their wild win over the Lions. On paper, this was the worst Thanksgiving game of the day and the one where a nap would have made a sense, but if you took a nap, you mi sed a surprisingly entertaining game. threw for 317 yards and that Torrey Craig Jersey includes going 4 of 6 for 39 yards on the Bears' final po se sion, which ended with hitting a 28-yard field goal as time expired to win the game. During the final drive, the Lions went full Lions when coach Dan Campbell pulled the old "double timeout" move which is totally illegal, because In the NFL, you're not allowed to call two timeouts in a row, but Campbell did it anyway. You can read his . win wild one over .We should probably refer to the losing team in this game as the "Allas Cowboys" because they had absolutely no "D" on Thursday. Four days after holding the to just 19 points, the Cowboys had no answers for a Raiders offense that piled up 36 points and more than 500 yards. The Raiders' offensive strategy was "just throw the ball up and hope something good happens" and it actually worked in this game. Not only did connect on several deep balls, but the Raiders also got several huge plays off of pa s interference calls on the Cowboys. We'll be covering this game in more detail further down the page, so I'm going to stop talking about it now. blow out . This was the Thanksgiving nightcap and if you had way too much food and alcohol in you to pay close attention to this game, I have some good news: You didn't mi s much. The Bills jumped out to a quick 10-0 lead and it was basically over after that. With at quarterback, the Saints simply couldn't move the ball on Buffalo's defense. The Saints finished with just 190 yards of offense, marking the second time this year they've finished with under 200 yards. To put that in perspective, they only finished with under 200 yards twice during Drew Brees' ENTIRE time with the team (2006-2020). As for Buffalo's offense, the Bills weren't flashy, but did do more than enough (260 yards, four TD pa ses Nikola Jokic Jersey ) to lead his team to the blowout win.To listen to or watch today's .

Today's show Part II: Best bets for Week 12The best part about Friday -- besides the fact it's Friday -- is that you get two episodes of the podcast in your feed. After the recap of the Thanksgiving games, Brinson politely asked me and Ryan Wilson to leave so that he could bring on R.J. White for a discu sion about their best bets for Week 12.To be honest, Brinson didn't even have to ask me to leave. I ditched him as soon as the Thanksgiving podcast was over so that I could eat more pumpkin pie. Speaking of Thanksgiving, the picks podcast usually also includes Pete Prisco, but he decided to take the week off due to the holiday, which was the least surprisingly news of the week. Anyway, Brinson and White spent nearly 60 minutes going over the best bets for every single game, and we're going to cover three of their picks below (Even though he didn't show up for the podcast, Prisco decided to email some picks in).Pete Prisco(2-1 last week in picks featured here) (+5.5) to cover against the (-3.5) to cover against the (-2.5) to cover against the Will Brinson (1-2 last Isaiah Hartenstein Jersey week in picks featured here) (-3) to cover against the (-2) to cover against the (-1) to cover against the R.J.

Deeper dive on the Raiders' upset win over the CowboysThe craziest game of Thanksgiving Day was definitely the one that happened in Dallas and since things got so wild during the Raiders' overtime win, we thought we would take a more detailed look at the game here. Here are a few notable things that happened during the Cowboys' 36-33 lo s:Derek Carr goes off. After struggling for three straight games, Carr finally got his groove back in Dallas. During the Raiders' three-game losing streak, Vegas averaged just 14.3 points per game and a big reason for that was because of Carr's struggles. However, those struggles appear to be over after he exploded for 373 pa sing yards and a touchdown against Dallas. He also had a 22-yard run on a third-and-11 that was one of the biggest plays of the day for the Raiders. Carr was especially good when targeting , going 8 of 9 for 134 yards. makes immediate impact for Raiders.Jackson's career with the Raiders got off to an ugly start two weeks ago when he lost a fumble against the Chiefs on his first touch. However, he more than made up for that against the Cowboys. The speedy receiver caught three Allen Iverson Jersey pa ses for 102 yards, including a 56-yard TD on the Raiders' third offensive play from scrimmage. Jackson also drew two pa s interference penalties. One penalty went for 30 yards on a drive that ended with a TD. The other penalty gave the Raiders 17 yards and ended with a field goal. Without Jackson, the Raiders probably don't win this game.Damn, Daniel. One of the Raiders' MVPs in the
