Should the Cowboys still keep a Thanksgiving slot?

The Detroit Lions is the other team and you ask this?

The Detroit Lions?

The only winless season this century?

Have never been to a Super Bowl?

Seven double digit winning seasons in last 54 years (NFL merger)

Four of those seven seasons ended in a WC loss.

Fourteen double digit losing seasons since 2000, out of 24 seasons.

Four playoff appearances this century. Last season is the only one that was not a WC elimination.

The Cowboys will not be taken off Thanksgiving for the same reason Detroit wasn't over 50 years ago. You don't end a tradition based on a team's losing season.

Nobody else wanted to do Thanksgiving games except us and Detroit,we might suck now but that doesn't change the fact that the Cowboys and Thanksgiving go together.its tradition.

Detroit has sucked for so many years on Thanksgiving day. It’s our turn. I wouldn’t change a freaking thing.

When the networks proposed Thanksgiving games only two teams were for it, Dallas and Detroit.

So Dallas and Detroit are guaranteed Thanksgiving games as long as they want.
