When is kickoff time for the NFC championship game? How to watch Lions vs. 49ers
As two teams square off for the NFC championship game, their recent histories couldn't be more different.
The Detroit Lions haven't been this far this century. They'd never won an NFC North title before this season and had not won a playoff game since 1991. Meanwhile, the San Francisco 49ers are back in the conference championship for the second time in two years and made a Super Bowl appearance just four years ago.
For the first time this postseason, the Lions will have to hit the road and pull off an upset to advance. The 49ers get to stay home as the NFC's No. 1 seed.
