The Minnesota Vikings have a chance to stay alive in the NFC North race on Sunday afternoon when they face the Detroit Lions.
A loss for the Vikings will give the Lions their first NFC North division title ever, as the last division title they won was 30 years ago when Barry Sanders led them to the NFC Central title.
Even if the Vikings lose this game, they are still likely to make the playoffs with wins over the next two weeks. It is, however, paramount that the Vikings find a way to get the win.
The 53-man roster has seen a few changes, as has the practice squad.
