TransGriot 2016 NFL Picks -Week 12

It's Thanksgiving Day!  I'm  posting my NFL picks a little earlier than normal because we have an early morning game in Detroit in addition to turkey and all the other mouth watering food and sides that will grace your dinner table,

Two of those three NFL games on tap involve the two teams that have Turkey Day traditions in the Detroit Lions as I mentioned and that NFL franchise in Arlington.    In recent years the NFL has broadcasts an evening game that involves two additional NFL teams either done by NBC or the NFL Network, and this year it's the Pittsburgh Steelers visiting the Indianapolis Colts in that Turkey Day evening matchup.

I flipped the pontification script on Mike in Week 11, and won it thanks to the Panthers and Colts pulling out their games.  If the Texans had held on, I'd be back up to a six game lead, but five game spread works.

Let's get to Week 12   Everyone has had their bye weeks, so from now on well be picking 16 weekly games for the rest of the season.   Teams I'm selecting to win will be in bold print with the home team in CAPS.  

Mike's Week 12 selections will be available via this link.
