Lions will test Jalen Hurts' dominance of the NFC North

To be the best, you've got to beat the best. While Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts isn't atop the NFL Most Valuable Player odds, he's won the ultimate prize. The reigning Super Bowl MVP is a winner, and to defeat him on Sunday Night Football would mean the Detroit Lions would do something no other NFC North team has done.

As a starter, Hurts is 10-0 against the NFC North. That includes the Eagles' 10-7 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Monday Night Football, which brought his record against them to 4-0, including one playoff victory.
