- Sunday, January 5, at 8:20 pm ET (5:20 pm PT)
Where to look?
- The Vikings-Lions game will air on NBC and stream on Peacock.
The final game of the 2024 season will determine the NFC North division and has huge playoff seeding 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 wins the division, but also the top seed in the NFC, which brings with it a first-round playoff bye and home-field advantage in the entire playoff. The loser tonight drops to the NFC’s fifth seed 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 p.m. ET (5:20 p.m. PT). It is available to watch nationally on NBC or streaming Peacock.
