NFC North standings: How Vikings win over Lions, Packers stunning loss impacts divisional race
Week 9 saw a huge NFC North matchup between the Lions and the Vikings, while the Packers faced the Carolina Panthers, and the Bears took on the Cincinnati Bengals. Minnesota entered the game 3-4 and was on the road, taking on Detroit. The Vikings were clicking on all cylinders and came away with a huge 27-24 win.
The Detroit Lions had a very bad day on Sunday. They suffered their second divisional loss of the season in a 27-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. That wasn't all they lost, though. Let's talk about it.
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said he doesn't believe Washington Commanders coach Dan Quinn is to blame for Jayden Daniels' injury.
The Packers-Lions rivalry got a reboot beginning with the final game of the 2021 season, when the Lions beat the Packers to finish the season with a lofty 3-13-1 record. The Lions finished 9-8, 12-5 and 15-2 the next three seasons, won two division titles and were 5-2 against the Packers.
"I think Dan (Campbell) said it in there, I don’t know if he said it to you guys, but a little adversity at this point in the season isn’t always the worst thing for you."
At $339, the average get-in price is similar to the Eagles game price, which is to say, not cheap. That said, expect the usual share of Vikings fans. All division opponents' fans seem to enjoy in-season trips to Green Bay, whatever the cost.
The Detroit Lions were stunned by J.J. McCarthy and the Minnesota Vikings in a Week 9 NFC North showdown at Ford Field. Here are the highlights.
The Green Bay Packers will host the Carolina Panthers at Lambeau Field on Sunday, Nov. 2. The Week 9 showdown is scheduled for a noon kickoff from Green Bay. Matt LaFleur's team is attempting to win a fourth straight game, while the Panthers will try to bounce back from a 40-9 loss at home last week.
