Packers-Lions Thanksgiving opener breaks prior regular-season record, too, at 47.7 million

Not OT because .....

The numbers from the two games raise the stakes for 2026. The NFL will have to make good decisions as to the teams that will face the Lions and Cowboys on November 26 in order to come close to the 2025 numbers.

For the Lions, the home options will include their NFC North rivals, the Patriots, Buccaneers, and perhaps the Eagles

Other than the Eagles the Pats would make the most sense ratings wise I think

next year they should do

Detroit - Dallas
New England vs the worst team in the league
and eh, idc for the third game... I am usually in a food coma by then
