As you wake up this morning, likely bloated from leftovers and lamenting tomorrow’s impending workday, don’t forget that after 72 straight hours of football that there is still one more day filled with pigskin on this Thanksgiving weekend.
Here is our weekly breakdown of the TV schedule and announcer assignments.
Update: All but one of the spreads are in now. Post updated with the late-addition spreads and my picks.
Damnit.
Another subpar week (4-7-2) has me at 72-78-7 for the season, a winning percentage of 45.9%. That just sucks. We all figured this season would be a bit unpredictable because of the lockout, and certainly it has been (the 49ers are 9-1!!!), but I never thought I’d struggle this much.
It’s time for a strong finish down the stretch, beginning with this week’s Thanksgiving Day games.
Update: The NFL Week 17 TV schedule, point spreads, and picks post is up.

Week 5 was not so stellar for me from a fantasy perspective, but on the bright side the Browns actually got a W and the Dolphins are up 10-7 on the Jets right now as I write this.
Plus, I dominated against the spread last week: 9-4 (with the updated Monday night result). That makes me 43-31 against the spread on the season, meaning I would have to totally pull a chiefsramsraiderstitansbucs two weeks in a row to fall below .500.
This week features a few very interesting games, most notably an undefeated showdown between the 4-0 Saints and 5-0 Giants. Unfortunately, it’s a 1:00 game. The Vikings and Ravens also matchup at 1:00.
In primetime, we get a pretty intriguing matchup between 3-1 Atlanta and 3-1 Chicago, and then it’s Broncos-Chargers on Monday night. The early spread for that game was very surprising, at least to me.
Who am I picking? Read on for the NFL Week Six picks, point spreads, and TV schedule.
