Week 12 of the 2017 NFL season kicked off with a full slate of games on Thanksgiving Day.
But if digesting your holiday meal didn't make you sleepy as the day wore on, the lack of action in the day's matchups almost certainly did.
Though the Detroit Lions battled the Minnesota Vikings to the end of regulation in a 30-23 loss, the Dallas Cowboys held a glorified practice against the Los Angeles Chargers, falling 28-6. The New York Giants didn't fare much better against Washington on Thursday night, losing 20-10 in a snoozer.
On paper, Sunday should hold more excitement as the high-scoring New Orleans Saints and Los Angeles Rams match up against one another, while the Buffalo Bills take on the Kansas City Chiefs as both teams contend for playoff berths.
