The holiday week has finally arrived: Thanksgiving is here, and we can finally take a late fall break. But in the world of the NFL, there's no time to rest, as Week 12 has kicked off with several high-octane matchups.

Let's take a look at the predictions from the experts at CBS Sports.

Tripleheader on Thanksgiving Thursday

Veterans of American football, CBS columnist Pete Prisco and NFL star Brady Quinn, have once again provided their analysis of the upcoming games. There were three Thanksgiving Day showdowns, Green Bay Packers vs. Detroit Lions, Washington Commanders vs. Dallas Cowboys, and San Francisco 49ers vs. Seattle Seahawks.

Speaking of the Packers vs. Lions, Brady Quinn had high hopes for the Packers, and Pete Prisco, on the other hand, picked the Lions, which didn't pay off. The game ended 29-22 in favor of the Packers.

As for Washington Commanders vs. Dallas Cowboys, Quinn didn't doubt the latter's victory for a second, thanks to the team's amazing ability to be both offensive and defensive. Prisco agreed. As it turned out, the predictions came true and the Dallas team beat their opponents by a score of 10-45 in their favor.

In the case of the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks, it was the opposite, as Prisco bet on the former and Quinn on the latter, but it was Pete who predicted the outcome, as Seattle lost by a score of 31-13.

Upcoming Games and Their Predictions

The closest is tonight's showdown between the Miami Dolphins and the New York Jets. Despite the Dolphins' win over the Las Vegas Raiders last Sunday, Pete noted that the Dolphins' offense hasn't been the best lately, but the Jets' defense has suffered as well. Still, the Jets were the pick, and Brady agreed.

But of course, the most exciting matchup will be on Sunday, when 12 teams square off: Panthers (1-9) at Titans (3-7), Jaguars (7-3) at Texans (6-4), Patriots (2-8) at Giants (3-8), Saints (5-5) at Falcons (4-6), Steelers (6-4) at Bengals (5-5), and Buccaneers (4-6) at Colts (5-5).

In the case of the first game, Pete and Brady both picked the Titans. In the case of the second game, Pete and Brady both picked the Jaguars. Between the Steelers and Bengals, they both picked the former, and between the Saints and Falcons, they both picked the New Orleans team. Patriots vs. Giants was a split decision, with Prisco picking the Patriots and Quinn picking the Giants.

Today, on Black Friday, you can enjoy a no less high octane confrontation between the Miami Dolphins and one of the giants of football, the New York Jets. The game will be played at the home of the latter, the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ. It will be available on Amazon Prime Video with pregame at 1:30 p.m. ET and kickoff at 3 p.m. ET.
