NFL Savagely Roasted For Attempting to Promote Bears-Lions Thanksgiving Day Game

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy is getting ripped yet again after re-iterating that Andy Dalton is the team's starter over Justin Fields

The Thanksgiving Day Toilet bowl game is kicking off shortly.

The Bears (3-7) will look to snap a five-game losing streak Thursday when they visit the winless Lions (0-9-1) at Ford Field in Detroit.

The NFL is obviously trying to promote the game between two pretty bad teams.

They posted about the game on Twitter.

If not for gambling and fantasy football no one would watch this Turkey of a game.

But thankfully gambling and fantasy do exist.

Definitely something to be thankful for.
