This Thanksgiving, Let's Have Some Pigeon (Picks)
🦃Turkey Day Predictions, PLUS Black Friday ⬛️
It’s Thanksgiving! Time for FOOD, FAMILY, FOOTBALL, and not necessarily in that order.
In my house, we will be having the first annual Yarris Family Football Classic, followed by the food. But for me, there is nothing that feels more like HOME than sitting on the couch with my second plate of food, in front of the football game, surrounded by family.
Here’s hoping you find your own sense of home this holiday season. Let me also say, I am eternally thankful to each of you who have subscribed to Football Behavior this year.
After years of building Pro Football Network, despite all of the great things I accomplished there with my amazing team, I am so grateful to be able to finally share with you my philosophy of football analysis and my insights gleaned form years of working directly with NFL players and coaches, uninhibited. That was my starting goal at PFN, and only now do I feel like I am truly getting that opportunity and it is all because of YOU.
So, from my family to yours, Thank You.
And now, enough with all the sap. Let’s line it up!
What’s In here?

Thanksgiving Day Predictions
Packers vs. Lions
This game is all about determining whether or not the Packers offense can keep pace with the Lions. It will be on their defense to slow down Detroit enough for the offense to keep pace.
Commanders vs. Cowboys
This game is about figuring out the true nature of the Cowboys defensive behavior. Our Behavior analysis uncovered some disturbing trends for them, and if the offense can’t possess the bal long enough, Washington may have the chance to steal this one.
49ers vs. Seahawks
This game could be the biggest discrepancy of the day. Seattle’s behavior doesn't match its record, though it might after Thursday. The 49ers are healthy, and that means they’re dominant.
Note: All three games are profiled in the same article, so all three links lead to the same place, but in case you care about one game more than the others, just scroll to the game you care most about.
Black Friday Prediction
The Dolphins offense has been in struggle city when it faces a team with a winning record, or a defense in the top half of the league in Score Prevention Behavior Rate.
The Jets don’t have a winning record, but they do have the best defense in football…👀
