Family, food and football -- that's what Thanksgiving is all about.

The NFL's Thanksgiving slate is something football fans look forward to every year. The league didn't disappoint with the trio of games scheduled for Nov. 24, 2022.

The first of three games begins at 12:30, as the Detroit Lions take on one of the NFL's best teams in the Buffalo Bills. Detroit should be a lot better this season, too, which makes this matchup a fun one to begin the holiday.

At 4:30 p.m., a classic NFC East rivalry returns to Turkey Day as the Dallas Cowboys host the New York Giants. Regardless of where these teams are in the standings, this matchup is always a fun one.

The final Thanksgiving matchup will take place in Minneapolis, as the Minnesota Vikings are set to host the New England Patriots -- two teams with playoff aspirations.
