Summary

In this episode, Stephen A. Smith, Ryan Clark, Elle Duncan, and Cam Newton react to some awkward Thanksgiving Day moments around the NFL. Plus, they tell us which QB-RB duo they trust more: Hurts and Saquon or Lamar and Derrick Henry? We react to Raiders Head Coach Antonio Pierce calling his team "the worst in football" and debate if this is the right kind of motivation. The crew tells us if the Bills should be on upset alert against the 49ers and if the Steelers have anything to prove against the Bengals. Learn more about your ad choices.
