baltimore for the moment. baltimore had a chance with nine teams in the afc, than they have. pittsburgh beat cleveland, indy was depleted here. do you get the sense that pittsburgh, they built confidence on what they can do on the defensive side of the ball? >> maybe. that's what it all comes down to. can they just find that formula, despite losing some key players back there? but it was the goal line sta and this is the pride of pittsburgh. this is what they do every week in practice. they go one-on-one against the offense. and it looks like there's no way they're going to be able to make a play. and they make a play. sean davis there. and then, a nice play by timmons to get underneath that route. and mike mitchell comes up and makes a big hit on the quarterback, tolzien. and then, they catch a break here on the last one. but every, single one of those are competitive situations. and the pittsburgh steelers, at

along the gulf coast. and out to the east they are dealing with partly cloudy conditions, temperatures in the 50s. so no major travel delays east. with west coast travel plans there could be a few issues. >> we'll keep an eye on it. thanks betsy. maybe it's travel or holiday parties that has you on the roads late this weekend. and perhaps you've noticed the signs. the ohio state highway patrol warning drugged driving is a growing issue in the digital reminders are hoping to raise awareness and start the conversation about drug abuse and driving. there's been a 25% increase in drug driving crashes. and already in 2016 about 35 hundred of those crashes have occurred. if you are out driving and see drug activity or impaired driving you can report it easily

fill up on this good stuff too. it started as a pickup thanksgiving football game nearly 30 years ago. but now the meadows turkey bowl in medina is breaking records. today it raised $245,000 for families up against unthinkable odds. organizer mike meadows and his wife have raised over a million dollars over the last 30 years. last year some of the money went to a woman who lost organs due to cancer. it's alslp bills and food for families that need it. a thanksgiving day tradition for a west side restaurant is back for the first time in six years. for more than 30 years michael's restaurant in rocky river served its customers and those in need a free meal on thanksgiving. they started the tradition as a way to say thank you to the community. but when the economy took a turn, he had to stop doing it. this year with the help of the restaurants new neighbor whole

>> the week before or two weeks before the people that were calling you going to do it again, you going to do it again and my heart breaking to say no. so now this year with the help of whole foods and thank god i say open the door. >> they feed about 1,000 people a year. that means over the years they've served more than 30,000 people. if you're looking for something to do for this weekend for the entire family make sure public square. it's open and saturday the cleveland foundation is offering a free skate for anyone that shows up. the rest of the winter festivities are back in public square as well. the season will kick off. it's hosted this year by channel 3's own danielle wiggins. we have a list of the events right now on wkyc.com.

serious turkey right now. and as soon as i put it into my body, and thank you to our bosses who catered in a phenomenal thanksgiving dinner for all of us from barrister's downtown for all of us. it became like this. i'm seriously considering having you roll me over there to do the forecast. >> i can help. >> that's about how it's going to happen. let's take a look at what's going on as far as tomorrow goes. we're starting off with some course for today. we've had a murky afternoon and that will be the case tonight. the visibilities have gone down to as low as 3 miles at times. as we go through the rest of the night from time to time. those visibilities come and go. if you have any overnight shopping plans that take you out and about across northern ohio be advised of that. we have drizzly and springly areas happening and a southwesterly wind. you can see it barely showing up on the radar. but you can see we have some of

so some wet roads are a possibility. the big picture shows we're not alone in this. there's a lot of showery weather going on across the northern great lakes region. but the air is colder farther to the west. that will trigger a change in northern ohio late tomorrow. we'll go from rain over to snow in some places. with a rain snow mix in others. that will carry us then into saturday. so into the early morning we go. temperatures in the upper 30s. we won't have to deal with any rain snow mix, showers mostly paralleling the lake shore. then that's going to be the trend for the day. if you have plans lakeville out towards madison on the lake and shoreline areas you are going to deal with periodic showers throughout the day tomorrow. the rest of us deal with the fog and drizzle we had throughout the day today. once we get into the afternoon we'll see a bit of a shift

of these rain showers farther south. that will open up more of lake eerie as well. some lake enhanced rain coming in. this is 10:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. you're starting to see some of the rain snow mix changing to snow showers. we have possibilities for snow on saturday. most of the secondary will be very light, maybe a coating. while the primary areas could be dealing with an inch to maybe three if this gets persistent. but showers are a good part of the forecast east on saturday with dry weather west and south. so akron down into dover with the dry conditions for saturday afternoon. and saturday night we start to see all of this winding down as we set up for a beautiful sunday. as far as tomorrow goes we will see foggy and damp conditions for a good part of the day with the rain showers arriving changing to a rain snow

40s through saturday with the rain snow mix chance continuing. sunday we dry it out. we have quite a few clouds around and monday late day into tuesday we get a big push of heat all the way into the upper 50s. >> cool. >> yeah getting crazy. but that's because a big surge of moisture is coming along as well. so we will have rain to contend with on tuesday. >> thanks betsy. coming up thanksgiving means football for many of you and lots of it. if to you missed the nfl games today or you want to see them again we've got you covered. dave has the highlights next. >> happy thanksgiving everybody. kevin james is my guest tonight.

sports report. >> it's officially black friday now. which means it's been a long day of football. >> i'm with betsy too. i ate a lot today. watched a lot of football and found a way to work as well. >> how about it. >> not a bad deal as we wrap up another thanksgiving of football. again we ask when will the browns be relevant again. when will they play in big games? this sunday is big for the giants. browns trying to avoid 0-16. to answer my question it will and score points. the last three games ten points, 7 points, 9 points. their d is on the field too much. they're not quitting but it's getting to them. especially the vets you see that clearly. >> it's a tough season. no one likes losing. and you know the browns, we've been losing for a while now. so it's not fun.

>> yes they do. the browns injury report a bit more crowded than last week. but rg iii is back out there. on a day of thanks he's grateful to have another chance. he has a long list of injuries yes but says he won't be thinking about that. >> if you step out on the field and you're thinking about not getting hurt then you're going to get hurt. so i never take that approach. i advise anybody that's playing that's come back from an injury to never take that approach. you know, you can't, you can't control. i can't control what happened in the philly game. you know with the guy getting the hit on my shoulder trying to go out of bounds. i can't control that anymore. >> three nfl games today. no andrew lucks for the colts but the steelers had big ben and antonio brown. that's dangerous. the combo connected for three touchdowns. bell had a touchdown, colts had
