Lions-Vikings showdown will decide NFC North title, top seed in playoffs
The Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings will wrap up the NFL's regular season with an unprecedented matchup and much at stake Sunday night.
Detroit (14-2) and Minnesota (14-2) will become the first teams to meet in the regular season with at least 13 wins and a combined 28 victories.
"It is unique," Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell said.
It is also quite consequential.
The winner earns the NFC North title, home-field advantage until the Super Bowl and a coveted bye in the playoffs.
