- The Vikings-Lions game will air on NBC and air on the Peacock.
The final game of the 2024 season will determine the NFC North division and has huge playoff implications. The Vikings and Lions are both 14-2 on the year, which puts them atop the conference standings. The winner of tonight's Sunday Night Football game not only clinches the division, but the top seed in the NFC, which brings with it a first-round playoff bye and home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. The loser falls to the NFC's fifth seed tonight and faces a much tougher road to the Super Bowl, starting with a road game next week to start the playoffs.
The Vikings-Lions game begins at Ford Field in Detroit tonight at 8:20 PM ET (5:20 PM PT). It is available to watch nationally on NBC or to stream Peacock.
