The Detroit Lions and Las Vegas Raiders face off on “Monday Night Football” in a game critical for both teams. The 5-2 Lions are trying to avoid their first two-game losing streak of the season and are hoping to maintain a two-game lead over the Minnesota Vikings atop the NFC North.
The Raiders are 3-4, but after the Chiefs’ shocking loss to the Broncos on Sunday, they are not out of the playoff picture by any means. They’ve won two out of their last three games, too, although those opponents were the 2-5 Packers and 2-6 Patriots.
