There was a time not that long ago when the football public ignored AFC South matchups.
With C.J. Stroud’s meteoric rookie rise, Texans vs. Jaguars could be the most intriguing matchup of the Week 12 NFL slate. It’s a shame we won’t get to see Stroud vs. Trevor Lawrence in prime time, but we’ll keep close tabs on it, especially for betting purposes.
The NFC West clash between the 49ers and Seahawks will get the prime-time treatment as the best game on Thanksgiving. The Seahawks have struggled in recent weeks, including Sunday’s upset loss to the Rams, but they’re always tough to beat at home in front of The 12s. The 49ers have regained their stride with dominant back-to-back wins against the Jaguars and Buccaneers.
