The Minnesota Vikings and the Detroit Lions are playing each other in a rare Week 18 showdown.

The game will determine who takes the NFC North and who will be the top seed in the playoffs.

The loser of the game will break the record for the most wins by a team that did not win its division.

The Lions are the only team in the league to go undefeated on the road this year .

The Vikings have been able to count on defensive takeaways so much that their players have now become known for their elaborately coordinated celebrations.

The defense is letting up the third -fewest points and has the best interception rate of any team.

Beat the big, bad Lions , and the Vikings force the league to reckon with the fact that they're just as scary as anyone.
