Thanksgiving is one of the best NFL betting days of the year.
There's nothing quite like sweating some bets out of the corner of your eye while Aunt Karen is trying to ask you questions about your job.
The favorites have historically been the profitable pick on Thanksgiving, and there are plenty of big favorites to bet on Thursday.
Since 2004, favorites are 46-8 straight up (SU) and 36-18 against the spread (ATS) on Thanksgiving. A $100 bettor would be up $1,620 by betting every favorite – against the spread – on Thanksgiving.
