The New Orleans Saints and Minnesota Vikings will open up the 2010-11 season tonight at 8:30 p.m. The Vikings are looking for revenge as the Saints edged them out last year in the NFC Championship game, 31-28.
There are lot questions concerning Brett Favre's ankle and if he'll still be able to provide the Vikings with the same magic that re-energized the whole organization last year. Questions also concern Adrian Peterson who has assured everyone that he has improved his fumbling issues that heavily impacted last year's NFC Championship.
As for the Saints, we'll find out if they're still suffering from their Superbowl hangover and how efficient Drew Brees will be who had a 70% completion rate last season.
This game will not be the same as last year with the Saints, Darren Sharper, and the Vikings, Sidney Rice, being inactive tonight.
Both teams provided us a game for the ages last year; we'll find out if they can live up to the hype once again this year.
