The New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings take the field Sunday night, and a playoff spot could be on the line for the Vikings.

The Giants already are out of playoff contention after the Washington Redskins locked up the NFC East on Saturday, but a win for the Vikings would guarantee Minnesota a playoff spot. However, if the Seattle Seahawks beat the St. Louis Rams in their 4:25 p.m. matchup, the Vikings would clinch before the game.

Here's how you can watch Week 16's edition of "Sunday Night Football."

When: Sunday, Dec. 27, 8:30 p.m. ET
Watch: NBC Sports Live Extra
