Marshawn Lynch, Rob Gronkowski play 'Mortal Kombat X' with Conan

Even though there is a pretty important football game on Sunday, fans will be treated to another must-watch Patriots vs. Seahawks showdown.

Marshawn Lynch and Rob Gronkowski will square off in a "Mortal Kombat X" battle Thursday night on "Conan."

The show released a preview of the segment on Wednesday, which turned into Conan O'Brien joking about Lipitor. Lynch and Gronkowski had no idea what he was talking about, but all three looked to be having a great time.

Lynch was even laughing. Yes, he does that, apparently.

The video game is due to release on April 14, but we'll get to see a sneak peek of the gameplay during Thursday night's show.

I don't think Vegas has issued a line on the showdown yet, but Gronkowski has to be the betting favorite. Just look at that relaxed confidence.
