In the opening game of the Monday Night Football season, the Minnesota Vikings will play host to the New Orleans Saints in Week 1.

The Monday Night Football season will kick off this Monday, as the New Orleans Saints travel to Minnesota to take on the Vikings. The game will feature two teams who missed out on the playoffs last season, so expect both rosters to be hungry in this one. This is one of those games that could prove very big later on in the year, if either team cannot win their own division.

For the Saints, they head into Minnesota looking to finally get over the seven-win hump. They have gone 7-9 in each of the last three seasons, mostly due to their defense not being able to stop anybody. Drew Brees returns under center, which means the ball is going to be in the air a lot, which could play right into the Vikings hands.

The secondary for Minnesota is loaded, so Brees may find it hard on Monday, especially without Brandin Cooks on the outside. Minnesota’s offense will have a new look to it as well, as rookie Dalvin Cook will get the start at running back. The Vikings have one of the more balanced rosters in the NFC this season, but will they be able to finally put it all together under head coach Mike Zimmer?

Adrian Peterson returns to Minnesota in a Saints uniform, which should be odd to say the least. This Vikings defense is something special, and while the Saints should be able to put up some points, it won’t be enough on Monday night. New Orleans may well in fact win more than seven games this season, but Monday they are likely to put on in the loss column.
