Top 10 Thanksgiving Day performances in NFL history
10. New England Patriots D/ST (Nov. 22, 2012)
While this game is best known for the New York Jets’ blunder known as the “Butt Fumble”, the Patriots‘ defense and special teams had a spectacular night even without that play. The New England defense held the Jets to just 17 points while also forcing five turnovers, scoring two touchdowns and having a goal-line stand in the third quarter in the team’s lopsided 49-19 victory.
