and Kansas City at Denver in ESPN's Sunday night game.

The rest of the NFL's 2004 schedule will be announced in April.


We will be able to see the Viking's opener.

sweet game to start with...gives me something to think about..Our O against their D. just hope they still have no running back and QB is a problem. We need to start this thing off right, with a win, just to forget last years crap...

That will be a GREAT home opener ! I hope we don't get shut out of all the Monday Night games this year ! I love going to Monday Night games. The Dome gets even more fired up for them games. It's a BLAST ! Have to miss a day of work but what the hell. It's worth it !

Wow, good first game! I'll be glad to get them outta the way

Wow thats a good strong opener.....really looking forward to seeing that game. Heres hoping we can get a strong start and strong finish.

it is not a good starting game like last year though, starting with the Pack is the best thing ever but lets hope we take care of bsiness with da boys

can't wait to see keyshawn come across the middle and E.J. laying him out

Maybe Moss will show up Meshawn like he did Owens, specially since this is nationally telecast at home. Seriously though Vikeman, opening at GB is amazing if we win, if we lose that woud have been terrible for our season. The opening game seems to always set the tone for the vikes season whether it be win or lose. Hopefully we torch these mofos.

What did I say?

I hope the Vikings beat the pants of Dallas and with the game being in the dome there is no reason for them to lose.
