Welcome to Week 12 of the 2022 NFL season, which opened on Thanksgiving Day with three games.
The Detroit Lions have been hosting Thanksgiving games for 88 years but have not had a lot of success of late. The Buffalo Bills completed a late comeback to beat the Lions, who have won just six Thanksgiving games since 2000. The Dallas Cowboys then ended a three-game losing streak on the holiday by outlasting the NFC East rival New York Giants. In the final Thanksgiving contest, the Minnesota Vikings and New England Patriots battled back and forth until the Vikings pulled away late to earn the victory.
