Your NFL Sunday kicks off a bit early this week as the Detroit Lions and New England Patriots square off in Germany!
Live from FC Bayern Munich Stadium in Munich, this morning’s matchup is a bout between two teams eyeing the postseason. The 5-4 Patriots find themselves looking up at the 7-1 Buffalo Bills in the AFC East. Last week’s 45-27 loss to the Green Bay Packers didn’t help their playoff aspirations, but Drake Maye and company hope to right the ship in today’s international game.
The only problem? They’re facing the red-hot Lions.
Detroit enters Week 10 at 6-2 and riding high on a four-game winning streak. Unfortunately, the Lions are in the ultra-competitive NFC North with the Chicago Bears (7-2), Minnesota Vikings (6-2), and Green Bay Packers (6-3).
This one could be the game of the week. From start time to channel, here’s how to watch the Patriots-Lions game live online for free.
