The NFC North and the top overall seed in the NFC are at stake as the Vikings (14-2) and Lions (14-2) square off in Week 18.
Naturally, the victor gets the home-field advantage and a bye week during the NFC Playoffs, while the loser starts the postseason as the fifth seed and becomes the best second-place team in history. Although it seems a bit unfair that things must go in this manner, playoff seeding is where things go wrong.
The season’s first meeting between Minnesota and Detroit in Week 7 turned into an instant classic, with the lead switching hands before the Lions won 31-29 thanks to a field goal from Jake Bates at 44 yards out with 15 seconds left.
