Philadelphia Eagles @ Detroit Lions 12:30 p.m. E.T on FOX
Don't look now but the Detroit Lions have won two games in a row and are hoping to make it three today against Chip Kelly's Eagles. The Philadelphia Eagles are just inconceivable. One minute they are looking like the team to beat and the next you are wondering who and what they are out there on the field. The Buccaneers torched the Eagles defense in Week 11 in game where the final score was 45-17. The task won't get easier for Philly in Week 12 as they'll be dealing with a much better defense who has plans on stuffing the Eagles running game and forcing QB Mark Sanchez to get it done. Well, I'll have to take the Detroit Lions in this one. And explosive game from the Lions spread offense may make things difficult for the Eagles defense early at Ford Field today. Be sure to tune in.

Carolina Panthers @ Dallas Cowboys 4:30 p.m. E.T on CBS
Game of the day is simply an understatement considering how big of a deal this match-up will be. The Dallas Cowboys certainly feel happy their starting QB Tony Romo is back out there on the field. In last week's win over the Miami Dolphins, Romo threw two touchdowns on 18/28, 277 yards and two interceptions as well. The Carolina Panthers out jolted the Washington Redskins in what began like a tight affair until Carolina gained tread in the 2nd quarter. In the win QB Cam Newton went 21/34 for 246 yards, 5 Touchdowns and not a single interception. The MVP candidate has definitely taken form of a elite quarterback and is awaiting his chance to show the world why today on national television. The undefeated Panthers will have their hands full today with this Cowboys receiving core. If Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart is limited in the running game that just may allow Dallas to pull this one off while you stuff your face with the Turkey. Should be a good one.

Chicago Bears @ Green Bay Packers 8:30 p.m. on NBC
QB Aaron Rodgers will definitely relax after redeeming himself after the Week 10 defeat to the Detroit Lions in which he produced only one touchdown pass. The Packers visited the Minnesota Vikings in Week 11 and put on an absolute scoring clinic. Well let's not give Rodgers all the credit of course. The return of Packers HB Eddie Lacy allowed Green Bay to rush for 100 yards on just 22 carries. The Vikings inability to stop Lacy was the true story of the game rather critics admit it of not. The Bears will deal with the same issue tonight at Lambeau Field. If the bears are too sensitive to lay some wood to Eddie Lacy the way the Lions did, then the Bears will have to deal with a Green Bay play action schematic that will have them looking at a sizable deficit early. Good news for Chicago though, HB Matt Forte and WR Alshon Jeffrey are expected to return to the lineup today from injury. Be sure to tune in to this NFC North match-up. It should be a good one.
