It has become a tradition for people to enjoy their turkey, stuffing, gravy, and pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving. Also, it has become part of the festivities to watch the NFL. For the NFL Thanksgiving Games 2024, there are three key games scheduled.

Here are some tips, picks, and parlays to consider.

Amon-Ra St. Brown Targets

The Chicago Bears (4-7) travel to Detroit to play the 10-1 Lions. Chicago’s playoff hopes are flickering. Detroit’s offense has been clicking on all cylinders in 2024. Quarterback Jared Goff’s primary target is wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. He is consistently good for at least six targets each game. Against Chicago, who is in the middle of the pack with pass defense, St. Brown should surpass eight targets.

CeeDee Lamb Targets

The New York Giants (2-9) visit their bitter rivals the Dallas Cowboys (5-7). Dallas desperately needs this win to build on its upset win over Washington in Week 12.

Dallas wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is a main target regardless of who the quarterback is, whether Dak Prescott is throwing or backup Cooper Rush. Lamb has had at least 10 targets every game since Week 6. He had 12 targets three times, 14 once, and 17 once. His number for this game is over/under 10.5. He will surpass that.

Money Line, Spread, and Points Parlay

The Bears are a 9.5-point underdog to the Lions. While Detroit has been laying waste to teams all season, seemingly scoring at will, Chicago has played better in recent weeks since replacing offensive coordinator Shane Waldron with Thomas Brown. They could easily have won their past two games against Green Bay and Minnesota. The point spread is too high.

Dallas is playing a wounded Giants team. Although the Cowboys’ playoff hopes are likely fantasy, they do have a chance. This version of the Giants will not stand in the way of that with a light 3-point spread favoring Dallas. Both teams should score and go beyond the 37.5 over.

The Miami Dolphins have gotten their footing since Tua Tagovailoa returned from his latest concussion. They are 5-6 as they head to Green Bay to play the 8-3 Packers. Green Bay is beaten up and stuck in their current playoff position with little chance to go up or down. It’s a game ripe for Miami to win outright. These teams will go beyond the over/under of 48.

This is a high-risk parlay with point spreads and over/under, but it could be lucrative for NFL Thanksgiving games 2024.
