Against all odds, the Minnesota Vikings are the NFL's only undefeated team entering November, powered by a defense that has been otherworldly under Brian Flores.
The road is about to get much tougher.
The Vikings are facing a stretch of four games against winning teams, with three coming on the road. That stretch starts Sunday, with Minnesota taking on the division-rival Lions in Detroit.

For the Lions, the game is another opportunity to pick up a critical NFC North win. Detroit entered last week's game against the Packers sitting last in a loaded division, but a narrow win ensured the Lions stayed right in the mix. The Vikings lead the division right now, but a Lions win on Sunday would quickly change the dynamics of the race.
