For the first time this season for Vikings fans and the second time this season for Seahawks fans, those who wish to watch their team's game will have to scan their TV channels for ESPN. Minnesota at Seattle is the featured game on "Monday Night Football" in Week 13.
The Seahawks enter Monday night's game as three-point home favorites in a matchup the NFL rarely sees. Seattle's win over Minnesota last season was just the 15th regular-season meeting between these teams, with the Seahawks having won the last four in the series and coach Pete Carroll holding a 5-1 career record against the Vikings.

If Seattle beats Minnesota on Monday, thanks to San Francisco's loss to Baltimore on Sunday, the Seahawks will jump the 49ers in the NFC West and steal the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoff picture.
