The Detroit Lions should win the NFC North, but they haven’t clinched the division just yet. The Minnesota Vikings are the only team standing in Detroit’s way, and that threat could end Sunday.
The Lions and Vikings go head-to-head in a matchup that could determine the division. If the Lions win or tie vs. the Vikings, Detroit will be the NFC North champs.
But don’t count the Vikings out just yet. Despite losing Kirk Cousins, the team has still managed to stay in the race. Joshua Dobbs and Nick Mullens have pushed the team to 7-7. Even if the Vikings don’t win the NFC North, the team could squeak into the playoffs, but only if Dobbs or Mullens give them solid production down the stretch.
Follow along as Yahoo Sports provides the latest news, scores and injuries during the early slate in Week 16.

#Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (ankle) is listed as questionable and is in a far better place than last week when he couldn’t go. Coach Mike McDaniel said this week, “Feel good about him” and that Hill had no setbacks.
