Sunday (Nov. 13) was literally the best football Sunday I’ve had in a long time. Not only did the Detroit Lions fight back from a big deficit against the Chicago Bears to win their game, but the whole NFL North was on fire.

The Minnesota Vikings took on the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, and all every in the NFL were on that game. The last minutes was insane, with Kurt Cousins and the Vikings scoring a last-minute touchdown to take the lead, only to have the Bills fight back with a field goal to tie it up. Then, the Vikings pulled it off. I don’t know how they’re doing it, but they keep winning these close games and are 8-1. Very impressive.

The Green Bay Packers were up against the Dallas Cowboys, and it’s a game Aaron Rodgers and company were desperate to win. After all, the Packers just lost to the Lions and had lost their past five consecutive games. In the end, the Packers were able to shut out the Cowboys, and like the Vikings game, it went into OT.

Now, Twitter is going crazy over the NFC’s weekend of games. Check out some tweets below, and listen to the latest episode of “The Squad with Anne Erickson!” Hit me up with your thoughts on the games Facebook HERE.

    Well, he certainly doesn’t look happy. It is a funny clip to watch. As long as he doesn’t throw anything at the refs, he should be good.

    I think the Packers are starting to feel like the Lions. They finally win a game and are going CRAZY.

    Again, this totally looks like a shot of the Lions winning a game – a single game. The Packers are the new Lions!

    Why does Barstool have to be so hilarious? Very true regarding the Vikings and Bills game!

    I honestly agree with this tweet. That game was SO exciting. I was at the end of my seat.

    Is this a sign that the Vikings might head to the Super Bowl? Perhaps. I went to MSU, so I do root for Kurt Cousins and the Vikings when they aren’t playing the Lions.
