Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell delivered a bold message to Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell following Sunday’s 31-9 victory. After clinching the NFC North title, Campbell said, “I’ll see you in two weeks.” The Lions secured their first-ever No. 1 seed in the NFC, earning a bye in the playoffs. The win ensured Detroit’s place at the top, while the Vikings, despite the loss, now head into the wild-card round.
Campbell’s words were full of confidence, as he predicted the Vikings would defeat the Los Angeles Rams in the playoffs. If that happens, Minnesota would return to Detroit for a divisional-round rematch. Had the Lions lost, it would have been the Vikings holding the No. 1 seed. Instead, Minnesota heads into the postseason with a remarkable 14 wins, the most ever by a road playoff team. The Vikings will face the Rams on Monday, Jan. 13 at SoFi Stadium.
