What a great game to end the regular season!
Well, the NFL couldn’t have asked for a better end to the regular season. We have the 14-2 Minnesota Vikings at the 14-2 Detroit Lions. The winner wins the NFC North and is the number one seed in the NFC playoffs. The loser will be the number five seed and have to go on the road for the playoffs. It doesn’t get much better than that.
The Lions are a 2.5-point home favorite at FanDuel Sportsbook. A month ago I was pretty confident the Lions were the better team, but they have suffered so many injuries down the stretch. Can their banged-up defense rally to slow the Vikings offense?
The first time these two met the Lions won 31-29 in Minnesota. I’d expect a similar score in this one, and with the Lions playing at home, I’ll give them the edge. Let’s say the Lions win 34-31.
