NFL Game of the Week

Detroit Lions at Minnesota Vikings, 1970 (6x9)

: 21, 1970

The Lions had already lost to the Vikings two weeks before in Detroit. Now on November 15, with only one loss on the Viking log, Minnesota had to struggle. Detroit would not let go, but the final two minutes produced an all-too-familiar ending. Minnesota won (as it had been winning at home since Week 2 of the 1969 season). Detroit could not break free of the icy grip that was only half-finished.
