The NFC North in its entirety is off for the early slate of Week 9. Of course, the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers face off at 4:25 p.m. ET. The Chicago Bears take on the Arizona Cardinals at 4:05 p.m. ET. While the Minnesota Vikings close out Sunday with a game against the Indianapolis Colts on “Sunday Night Football.”
That leaves us with a relatively uneventful early slate of games to watch. Sure, you could watch the Commanders (6-2) to see if the Lions can extend their lead in the NFC, but they’re playing the lowly Giants (2-6).
