The best VPNs for streaming are not free, but most do offer free-trials or money-back guarantees. By leveraging these offers, you can watch Lions vs. Vikings in the NFL without committing with your cash. This isn't a long-term solution, but it does give you enough time to live stream select fixtures from the NFL before recovering your investment.

If you’ve cut the cord like most of the modern world, you can still watch Vikings vs. Lions live without cable (and free!) by starting a DIRECTV trial. The game airs on FOX at 1 p.m. ET, so you’ll have time to sign up, stream and decide later.
