Game Preview

One more win and the Detroit Lions clinch their first division title in 30 years.

The first-place Lions (10-4) have three games remaining — two against the second-place Minnesota Vikings. They’ll get their first shot at clinching the NFC North championship on Sunday afternoon, when they take on the Vikings in Minneapolis.

“We control our own destiny as it pertains to winning the division, no matter what happens (elsewhere),” coach Dan Campbell said. “We win (Sunday) and we win the division. We’re in (the playoffs) and we get a home game. That’s right where I want to be.”
