INDIANAPOLIS — The Detroit Lions are the hottest team in the NFL and will bring their eight-game winning streak on the road to Indianapolis for a battle with the Colts today. Sunday’s kickoff between the cross conference foes starts at 1 p.m. Eastern on FOX.
Several streaming services will broadcast the game live and you can watch on Fubo (free trial and $30 off your first month), DirecTV Stream (free trial) and Sling (promotional offers).
The Lions (9-1) haven’t lost since Week 2. They have already beaten the rest of the AFC South, hanging 52-points on both the Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans, while overcoming five interceptions from Jared Goff to escape with a three-point victory over the Houston Texans.
The Colts (5-6), meanwhile, have had both some incredible flashes of greatness and some head scratching woes. After much ado about who their QB1 is in the last few weeks Anthony Richardson has taken the job back from Joe Flacco. Either way they have their work cut out in order to prevent the Lions from sweeping the division.
