The Minnesota Vikings will host the Detroit Lions on Christmas Day in Week 17.
Detroit is making its push for the playoffs, while the Vikings are trying to figure out what their future looks like with J.J. McCarthy.
The Lions have been sitting at the No. 8 seed for quite some time. They've been unable to claim that final Wild Card spot or take the lead in the NFC North.
While it might not seem like the Vikings have much to play for, tell that to McCarthy. "Nine" has only a couple of games left to earn the trust of the Vikings, and if not, try to save face for another organization.
