The Detroit Lions (9-1) face off against the Indianapolis Colts (5-6) for a big Week 12 matchup.
The Lions need to continue to win if they want to lock up the No. 1 seed and earn a first-round bye. Both the Minnesota Vikings (8-2) and Philadelphia Eagles (8-2) are on their heels, so Detroit cannot afford a step back.
That said, they’re going to be a bit shorthanded on defense. On top of the season-long injuries to Aidan Hutchinson, Marcus Davenport, and Derrick Barnes, the Lions will be without both Alex Anzalone and Terrion Arnold this week.
