Detroit Lions vs. San Francisco 49ers: Where to watch the NFC championship game

The Detroit Lions will take on the San Francisco 49ers in the 2024 NFC championship game on Sunday.

The Lions, led by quarterback Jared Goff, defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 31-23, in the divisional round. The 49ers, led by quarterback Brock Purdy, beat the Green Bay Packers, 24-21, last week.

If the 49ers beat the Lions, they will become one of only five teams to appear in eight Super Bowl games, CBS reports. Other teams include the New England Patriots, Dallas Cowboys, Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos. However, if the Lions win the NFC championship game, they will make their first Super Bowl appearance ever on Feb. 11.
