Lions vs. Panthers: How to watch, listen, stream the Christmas Eve game
With the Sunday of Week 16 falling on Christmas Day, the NFL shifted most of the games to Saturday. That means we get Detroit Lions football on Saturday, and it’s a game with serious playoff implications. The 7-7 Lions visit the 5-9 Panthers, who, despite their lowly record, actually control their own playoff destiny; if Carolina wins out, they win the NFC South.
