Game 272 of the regular season was one for the record books for the Detroit Lions.

An epic matchup of two 14-2 teams to end the regular season was dominated by the Lions in all three phases, and when it was all said and done, Detroit became NFC North champions for a second consecutive year after a 31-9 win.

The win not only captured the North title for Detroit, but also secured the team’s first No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs, which means the Lions have home-field advantage throughout the playoffs.

Detroit’s defense was terrific all night, holding the Vikings out of the end zone and making two critical fourth-down stops inside their own 5-yard line to help seal the game. Minnesota was just 3-for-13 on third down, 0-for-3 on fourth down and 0-for-4 in the red zone.
