Nobody ever could have predicted it, but Thanksgiving Day now is positioned to give us one of the more unique and lopsided matchups in NFL history.

If Detroit loses its next two games — at Carolina and at home against Tampa Bay — and Tennessee wins at Jacksonville and against the New York Jets, it means that the first Thanksgiving day game would pit the winless Lions against the unbeaten Titans.

Right now, Detroit is 0-for-the-season, and Tennessee has yet to lose. If the two teams can keep it up, it might be the first time in NFL history that an 0-11 team has played an 11-0 team.
