I guarantee one game is Steelers vs Bengals. Steelers are still a draw.
I don't think it can be. Fox has broadcasting rights for the game which means it'll be an NFC opponent.
The way they drew the rules for the 17th game preserved the pool of teams allowed to play @DET or @DAL
Until the contract changes, AFCN teams and AFCS teams will never play the Cowboys on Thanksgiving.
On the Detroit side, again the AFCN and the AFCW will never play.
CBS has, on occasion, had an NFC team play instead of an AFC team, but Fox has never broadcasted an AFC vs NFC game on their side.
