The Detroit Lions face off against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday in a huge game for both teams. For the Vikings, it’s an opportunity to get a huge 2-0 lead in the division and rebound after last week’s embarrassing loss to the Eagles on “Monday Night Football.”
For the Lions, it’s an opportunity to prove their own legitimacy. In Week 1, they held with—but were clearly outclassed—by the Eagles. And it was the reverse story in Week 2, as the Lions dominated the Washington Commanders and held on long enough to walk away with the win.
