Biggest NFC North Division Championship Game. Sunday Night Football at Ford Field in Detroit. Take on the Minnesota Vikings at 8 PM on NBC. They beat the Vikings 2 months ago. Down 10-0 in the 1st Quarter. Show their grit in the 2nd Quarter. Get a 31-29 comeback win at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. Detroit gave them their only lost of the 2024 campaign at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. Lost to the Los Angeles Rams the next game at So-Fi Stadium in Los Angeles. Only road lost also too. Minnesota is on a 10-game winning streak right now. They are 14-2 on the campaign.
14-2 vs 14-2 doesn’t get any better than that. Love this challenge. Sam LaPorta learn from that NFC Championship Game on January 28th, 2024 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, CA. Had a 17-point on the 49ers in the 1st half. Lose the lead in the 2nd half. Lose 34-31 over the San Francisco 49ers. Got revenge from Monday Night Football with a 40-34 win in Week 17 of the season.
