Now that everyone has caught their breath from a wild weekend in the NFL, it's just in time to play again as Thanksgiving is here. Thursday, the Dallas Cowboys (5-5-1) and Kansas City Chiefs (6-5) each look to continue their momentum after a pair miraculous comeback wins in Week 12. It's the first time the two organizations have met since 2021, and the first time in Arlington since 2017. All eyes would be on this game regardless because of the star-power, the Thanksgiving celebration, and the halftime show. However, there are massive playoff implications for each team as they hover around the.500 mark. Here are 10 notable 'big facts'to remember ahead of Thursday's 3:30pm CT kickoff on CBS.

The one-week stretch from Thanksgiving Thursday to the following Thursday is one of the most grueling stretches on the NFL calendar. In a short stretch of three games in 12 days, teams can experience fatigue, injuries, and poor performance if they're not careful. But on the flip side, if the team is firing on all cylinders and playing some of their best football of the year, it can be a good thing to keep playing while the team is hot. That's exactly the case for the Dallas Cowboys (6-5-1) who have resurrected their season with three-straight wins but need to continue their momentum if they hope to make the playoffs. Meanwhile, the Detroit Lions (7-5) must endure the same stretch, but have limped into the final leg after losing two of their last three. There are playoff hopes on the line as the two NFC foes meet on Thursday Night Football. Here are 10 notable 'big facts'to remember ahead of Thursday's 7:15pm CT kickoff on Prime.

Following post-bye week grind of four games in 17 days, the final month of the regular season is now here and it marks the final push to the finish line. For some teams, the playoff are just a long dream that can be chased in 2026. For others, they're a near certainty and just a matter of time. For teams like the Dallas Cowboys, the playoffs remain a possibility, but are a long shot. Dallas faces the fifth-easiest remaining schedule in the NFL (.365), while the team they need to slip up twice, the Eagles, face the third-easiest remaining schedule (.327). Either way, as the Cowboys (6-6-1) face the Minnesota Vikings (5-8) this week, they're playing to keep that sliver a hope alive into Week 16. Here are 10 notable 'big facts'to remember ahead of Sunday's 7:20pm CT kickoff on NBC.
