San Francisco 49ers vs. Detroit Lions: How to watch, stream the NFC championship game

The Detroit Lions will go on the road to play the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC title game to decide which team punches their ticket to Super Bowl LVIII.

The Lions dispatched Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31-23 in the divisional round to reach the NFC championship game.

The Niners, meanwhile, scored 10 fourth quarter points in their divisional matchup against the Green Bay Packers to complete a comeback victory and inch one step closer to the 2024 Super Bowl.

Can head coach Dan Campbell continue to build his legacy as a cult figure and deliver Lions fans a championship game appearance the team hasn't had since 1957 (pre-merger and before it was even called the "Super Bowl")?
