Minnesota Vikings vs. Detroit Lions: How to watch today, kickoff time, channel and more

The Minnesota Vikings, currently undefeated heading into Week 7 of the NFL season, will host the Detroit Lions in Minneapolis this Sunday. The teams currently sit first and second in the NFC North, but it appears both teams will be missing several key players this week due to injuries, including likely the absence of Vikings RB Aaron Jones, who is out with a hamstring injury, and cornerback the Lions' Carlton Davis, offensive lineman Dan Skipper and safety Brian Branch, all of whom did not participate in practice this week.

Here's how to watch every NFL game this season:

Many NFL games are broadcast on local channels. So if you want to watch a game that is on the market, all you have to do is turn on your TV (or set up a digital TV antenna). An NFL+ subscription for $7/month gives you access to the NFL Network, which is great for watching some games, but the downside to NFL+ is that there are only local and primetime games in the regular season (and only on mobile or tablet!). In that case, here's what we recommend to watch the NFL.

With Fubo TV you have access to ESPN, NFL Network, Fox, ABC, CBS and over 100 other live channels. At $80/month, the live TV streaming service is definitely a big investment for soccer fans. But it offers nearly all the channels you need to watch the NFL season while still giving you significant savings compared to a traditional cable package.
