This coming Sunday, the Detroit Lions will look to get back on track following a heartbreaking 23-22 last-second loss to the Green Bay Packers. That opportunity will come at Ford Field against the Minnesota Vikings, who are coming off a very impressive win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
In order to have any real chance of making a run in the NFC North, the Lions absolutely must take care of business against the Vikings, which means quarterback Matthew Stafford will have to bring his A-game.

On Wednesday, Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer spoke to media members via conference call and he said he thinks Stafford may be playing at his all-time best.
“I think Stafford's playing outstanding, maybe the best I've seen him,” Zimmer said.
