Our staff makes their expert picks for the NFL Week 7 battle between the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings.
The Detroit Lions (4-1) will take on the Minnesota Vikings (5-0) in Week 7, in a divisional battle that will put the winner, not just atop the NFC North, but the NFC overall.
“Yeah, listen, it is big, because it’s a division game, they’re playing really well,” coach Dan Campbell said of this game. “So are we. We’re on the road, they’ve already got a division win on the road at Green Bay, so this is big, this is a real big game and that’s the way you have to approach it.”
