It's time to go around the league.

You know, it's big weekend, football all spread out.

So we'll start with the Thursday games.

Happy Thanksgiving to everybody.

Packers beat the Lions in the early game, 31 to 24.

Jordan Love matches a career high with four touchdowns.

Michael Parsons, just making his impact all over the place.

Eight tackles, two and a half sacks.

He's got eight and a half career sacks on Thanksgiving that ties Ezekiel Ansa for most since sacks became tracked in 1982.

Amon Ross St. Brown leaves the game with an ankle injury, did not return, finished with no catches for just the second time in his career.

Packers, it feels like they've really righted the ship and lions are, they're losing their way.

I mean, Amonra left that game.

They run the ball effectively, but the passing game is terrible.

They don't have their best two receivers.

Yep, that's right.

Right.

LaPorta, St. Brown, it's a real problem. Jameson Williams actually stepped up and played well, but it feels like something's very broken. And the line's offensive line is not very good right now either. No, it's not. And I think you can say, I know Dan Campbell's Cohn plays. I think they miss. I think they miss the offensive coordinator. I think Benjohn. Yeah, I mean, he's awesome. I ripped his shirt off after the last win. But, I mean, they're missing him. And then the second St. Brown goes out. Because they're already missing Leporta. Now you lose to the Supreme. I know, man. I know, man. I feel like Green Bay has got, what, Chicago two more times? Or two times they haven't played them yet? Big games. Huge games. I feel like they're going to win the division. Green Bay? Yeah. So what are they half a game from the number one seed, right? Yeah, they're a three and one. Then they got the Bears twice. Bears twice? You have this schedule in front of you? Of course I have this schedule in front of me. What's their schedule? Bears twice. They got the Bears this week. They already swept the Lions. Correct? Swept the Lions. They got the Bears. They're at Denver. They got the Bears again. So they got a, they got a Bears. So Bears, Denver Bears. Wow. Yeah, Baltimore at Minnesota. I hate that the NFL schedules doing this.

That they Get a Bears Denver Sandwich. So, Bears, Denver Bears. Wow. Yeah, Baltimore at Minnesota.

I hate that the NFL schedule is doing this. That they play like twice in three weeks? Yeah, it's happening all over a place. I hate it also. I think the commies play the Eagles twice. The Bucs play the Panthers. Twas in three weeks. It's terrible. I mean, I guess it's intriguing for the rest of the schedule, but I don't like it.
