the nfl.com link - http://www.nfl.com/schedules/2013/REG/VIKINGS

This sums it up nicely -
"Vikings season-ticket holders are going to need time to get to know this year's team. After opening on the road against the Lions and Bears, a home date against the Browns gives way to a London voyage to face the Steelers. Minnesota's second home game doesn't happen until mid-October. Then it gets nasty. Starting in Week 7, the Vikings face Eli Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Tony Romo, Robert Griffin III, Russell Wilson and Rodgers again. If the Vikings escape intact, last year was no fluke."

Well, it is challenging. We will learn a lot about Ponder and the rest of the team fairly quickly.

Early prediction: 8-8, although 10-6 isn't out of the question. The Pittsburgh game in London is hard to call. The Cowboys in Dallas is another possible win and Baltimore isn't going to look much like they did last year. I could also see a win in week 2 at Chicago and a 5-0 start.

Code: Select all

Week 01  Sun, Sep 08   @ Detroit Lions                W
Week 02  Sat, Sep 15   @ Chicago Bears                L
Week 03  Sun, Sep 22   Cleveland Browns               W
Week 04  Sun, Sep 29   Pittsburgh Steelers (London)   W
Week 05  Bye
Week 06  Sun, Oct 13   Carolina Panthers              W
Week 07  Mon, Oct 21   @ New York Giants              L
Week 08  Sun, Oct 27   Green Bay Packers              L
Week 09  Sun, Nov 03   @ Dallas Cowbows               L
Week 10  Thu, Nov 07   Washington Redskins            W
Week 11  Sun, Nov 17   @ Seattle Seahawks             L
Week 12  Sun, Nov 24   @ Green Bay Packers            L
Week 13  Sun, Dec 01   Chicago Bears                  W
Week 14  Sun, Dec 08   @ Baltimore Ravens             L
Week 15  Sun, Dec 15   Philadelphia Eagles            W
Week 16  Sun, Dec 22   @ Cincinnati Bengals           L
Week 17  Sun, Dec 29   Detroit Lions                  W

Yea I am thinking the same. Downside is I hate planning road-trips for home games in December coming from Eastern SD. Winter weather is so unpredictable here.

I feel you man! I grew up in Sioux Falls and my parents still live there. I am sure I will venture to the Metrodome at least once this year from South Dakota!

I am just up the interstate in Brookings myself. But this winter has been awful, more so than usual. It is usually just a straight shot on hwy 14 through Pipestone or head north to Watertown and take 212 all the way to Minnetonka.
