Follow the Detroit Lions Thanksgiving game against the Bears

The Detroit Lions look to snap a seven-game winning streak on Thanksgiving when they face the Chicago Bears on Thursday.

Should Detroit prevail, it would also give them their 10th straight win of the season. The Lions are currently in first place in the NFC and are ever closer to clinching a playoff spot. If the chips are down on Sunday, the playoffs could be played as early as this week.

The Lions’ participation in the holiday game is an annual tradition, and they have risen to be one of the league’s best teams in 2024. As a result, they are one of the main attractions. For veterans like center Frank Ragnow, these opportunities to play on the national stage always come with a different kind of buzz. Ford Field is sure to be electric with how well the team has performed.

“It’s a blessing we’re all grateful for,” Ragnow said on FOX 2 Game Day Live. “I think the history that comes with the NFL and the Lions being a part of it is so cool. And the atmosphere that game is, there’s buzz. No matter what year, the years we’ve had down this year to now , it’s always been a game that everybody’s excited about. The fans are crazy, the national spotlight, and it’s a blessing to play in it.
