Detroit opens Thanksgiving weekend against Chicago. Plus, Kansas City and Buffalo can clinch postseason spots with wins and losses by Denver and Miami.

James Brown, Nate Burleson, Bill Cowher, Matt Ryan, J.J. Watt and CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones will all be in the Motor City for a live broadcast on CBS and Paramount+.

The NFL contenders are starting to separate from the pretenders. The Green Bay Packers (8-3) easily took care of business against the San Francisco 49ers (5-6) on Sunday and the Detroit Lions (10-1) dominated the Indianapolis Colts (5-7).

The Bears won't be making the playoffs this season, but the team has been improving on offense with Caleb Williams. The other side of the ball, however, is still hit-and-miss. The Lions will feast all over the Chicago defense for a five-touchdown performance. Still, 10 points feels a bit steep for a late-season divisional game.

After its Week 11 party in Buffalo, "The NFL Today" crew is hitting the road again. This time, the NFL on CBS pregame show will broadcast live from Ford Field in anticipation of the Detroit Lions' Week 15 matchup against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills.

When the Detroit Lions take on the Chicago Bears on Thanksgiving in Week 13, head coach Dan Campbell's squad will have several avenues to punch its ticket to the postseason early. Here's a look at all the scenarios.
