Lions vs. Vikings NFL Week 2 Preview, TV Schedule, Prediction

TV Schedule: Sunday, September 20, 1:00 p.m. ET, Fox

Location: TCF Bank Stadium, Minneapolis, Minn.

Line: Vikings (-3)

The Detroit Lions and the Minnesota Vikings are scuffling after their 0-1 starts. Statistically speaking, teams that start off 0-2 generally miss the playoffs. That tells you how high the stakes are. The Lions squandered a 21-3 lead to the San Diego Chargers, while Minnesota stumbled in San Francisco. These two division rivals normally challenge each other anyway. Their most recent game late last season at Ford Field involved a tight Lions victory, 16-14.
