The NFL's Thanksgiving games delivered excitement, particularly with the Detroit Lions' controversial win over the Chicago Bears. The Bears' clock management blunders, especially by rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, raised eyebrows, while head coach Matt Eberflus faced criticism for his decisions.

The Lions, now 11-1, hold the top NFC seed despite a shaky performance. Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys are attempting a playoff push after recent victories, though skepticism remains about their chances. The New York Giants are also reconsidering their quarterback situation after Drew Lock's improved play.
