Bingo, I offered bets against this prediction and boom. Statement game, starting out 1-0
hopefully wentz isnt quite right by then even though foles had no problem shredding us.
Where will the game be played? Hopefully at US Bank.
I would love nothing more to get a win over the Eagles in the first game of the new season. Shut those bastards and their bastard fans the hell up.
Punch them in the mouth and move on.
Nice way to start the season

It won't be a home game. We're playing Philly on the road this year.
superbowl team alwas opens at home
come on Kirk, light those fuckers up!
hope this means vikings have a home game week 2. was planning on taking 10 year anniversary to Minneapolis for home opener and some nice dinners
Well, if anyone knows the Eagles it should be Cousins. 16 TD's, 5 INT's in 7 games. 4-3 record.
Awesome! Bet there won't be many Viking fans going (unless armed with lead pipes, brass knuckles, and baseball bats). B)

If they get their ass handed to them like NFCC game, they know they have to work on a lot of things.
My guess is Wentz won't be starting until week 6. Remember that knee got torn up in December. I think that's usually at least a 10 month rehab.

Not only that, but they will be hoisting the flag before the game. Gonna be loud, but hopefully that will add even more fuel to the fire for Vikes
This is fantastic news. Toughest game on our schedule is a revenge match. Even better, we get it right off the bat. And potentially without Wentz.
Should be good weather too, in early September. This game is going to be HYPED big time. Love it.
Better get used to Minnesota in prime time for 2018.

by that point of the year... it doesnt matter, the team will be who they are. only thing that matters is the W... any way we can get it. would it be great to see them beat a loaded team to start the year... yep, but I would rather have a win against weaker opponent than a loss against a better one. only 16 opportunities to get as many wins as possible for playoff seeding, take them anyway you can get them.
Actually thought about going to this game as my girlfriend is a huge Eagles fan...then I remembered how much I enjoyed not having to use my deductible...Maybe the Eagles-Bucs game...
Omfg! There will actually be one good Thursday night football game this season.
