There will be plenty of football to go with all the Thanksgiving trimmings this week. Some of the Thanksgiving lines will be as tasty as the side dishes on the table Thursday.
Thanksgiving betting presents the perfect complement to one of the most festive holidays of the year. What better way to spend the day and weekend than watching all the NFL and NCAAF action from the comfort of your sofa while checking out the betting lines available at online shops like BetUS for placing your holiday bets?
The NFL kicks off the football fiesta with a game featuring one of the best teams in the league, the Detroit Lions who host the Chicago Bears in an NFC North clash. The Lions are 10-1 for the first time since 1934. That season they finished 10-3. When looking at betting odds on BetUS Week 13 Thursday Specials and other online shops they are 10-point favorites over the wallowing Bears. Don’t be surprised if they are 11-1 by dinner time on Thursday.
The Raiders go with Aidan O’Connell at quarterback against the Chiefs in a rivalry between teams that hate each other. It’s easy to dismiss Las Vegas in betting lines at BetUS and other online shops. Be careful if you do. The Chiefs have not been dominant on offense, the Raiders are playing for pride and could be the play in Black Friday betting against an offense that has been lackluster.
There are some intriguing matchups on Sunday for bettors to pursue The Arizona Cardinals are in a logjam at the top of the tight NFC West. They visit a Minnesota Vikings team that is 9-2 and doing it about as quietly as any team can with that record.
If you are intrigued by a divisional matchup the Pittsburgh Steelers need a win to stay ahead of the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North. They visit a Cincinnati Bengals team that creates ways to lose every week. Will Zac Taylor’s team figure it out? And how about that total of 47 ½, which is high for a team that has the defensive prowess of the Steelers?
One game in the late afternoon window and the SNF contest will catch the eye of bettors at BetUS and other online sites. The Eagles meet the Ravens. That means the top two rushers in the NFL will be on the field. Saquon Barkley and Derrick Henry are coming off a week where they combined for 395 rushing yards. That isn’t a mistake: 395. Will they both soar over their totals in the prop betting market? Remember, the Ravens limited the Chargers to 83 yards on Monday Night Football.
The night game sees the troubled 49ers trying to stay in the NFC West race but it won’t be easy as they play at the surging Buffalo Bills. The temps should be in the 20s Sunday night and that won’t help San Francisco. They could be a team to scope for a lot of unders in the prop world.
Monday night ends the Thanksgiving weekend football feast. The Cleveland Browns meet the Denver Broncos. Cleveland upset Pittsburgh at home last week. The Browns hit the road against a surprising Denver team with rookie Bo Nix at QB. Nix has been red hot and that might lead to some tempting numbers in the betting world against an inconsistent Cleveland defense. The number has Denver favored by 5½ with an over/under of 42½. Should be an intriguing game to study when plotting wagers.
When looking for NFL Thanksgiving games to bet on, BetUS offers them all. How about which team will score the least touchdowns? Tommy DeVito is uncertain to play for the Giants and that should dampen any offense they have.
Does that mean the Giants-Cowboys will be the biggest blowout? If you think so, you can get a +225 line on that game. The Bears-Lions check in at -150 while the Dolphins-Packers are +250. That plus money bet on Giants-Cowboys is worth some homework
If readers already have a BetUS account, all they have to do is log in to their account on Thanksgiving – or before – and find the game or wager you want to place. Select the bet and put in the amount and once you click it, you have a ticket. Hopefully, a winning one.
There are a number of qualifiers when it comes to figuring out how many people travel over Thanksgiving weekend. Start with trips, who heads out whether on the road or via airplane. Then there is consideration given to the amount of people on these journeys. You also mix in the length of stays and the amount of time each person spends traveling.
