The NFL Thanksgiving Day games have become a staple tradition of the national holiday for almost a century, but which team has recorded the most wins on Turkey Day?
Which NFL Team Has The Most Wins On Thanksgiving Day?
In the competition for most Thanksgiving Day wins, the Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys hold a clear advantage over the rest of the field since these two teams play on Turkey Day every year as a tradition.
The NFL team with the most wins on Thanksgiving Day is the Detroit Lions, with 37 wins, 44 losses and two ties on the national holiday.
They’re closely followed by the Cowboys in second with 32 wins, 22 losses and one tie. Dallas have a significantly better winning percentage, but Detroit have been playing on Thanksgiving for longer.
Heading into Thursday afternoon’s clash at Ford Field, Detroit are sitting with an 8-2 record – the second-best in the NFL, and 2.5 games ahead of everyone else in their division.
We’re also going to be treated to three A-list halftime performances from some of the biggest names in music including Grammy-nominated rapper Jack Harlow and country legend Dolly Parton.

Detroit Played Their First Thanksgiving Day Game In 1934 And Have Featured 82 Times
The Lions played their first Thanksgiving Day game against the Chicago Bears in 1934 and have played on Turkey Day 82 times in history. Back then, the Bears were back-to-back champions and beat Detroit 19-16 at the University of Detroit Stadium.
They haven’t enjoyed the best of times on Thanksgiving in recent history and are without a win on the day since 2016. However, the 2023 edition presents the perfect opportunity to turn it around against a 4-6 Green Bay Packers side.
