Vikings vs. Saints Kickoff 2010 Season

Once again the NFL has lined up a fantastic opening night game. Tonight the Minnesota Vikings visit the New Orleans Saints at the Super Dome. Last year’s NFC rematch will have plenty of early season storylines. Brett Favre appears to be ready for his 20^th and final NFL season. Even with his past unretirements it appears that this will be his final year under center.

Minnesota comes into the game with injuries on their top flight offense. Top WR Sidney Rice had hip surgery and his expected to be out for at least two months. Percey Harvin had his own issues this summer. Harvin had to be rushed to the hospital for migraine headaches. He missed three weeks of training camp so he is way behind the other veterans.

New Orleans will be a little distracted as they raise their Super Bowl banner tonight. The saints have to avoid the Super Bowl hangover that has ruined many past champions seasons. Getting a big home win against a top team will go a long way to set up another excellent season in the Crescent City.
