Well folks, this weekend will mark my first regular season NFL football game. I have seen many, many college football games in my life, and I have even been able to take in a Preseason NFL game a few years ago.
This weekend I will be going to the Metrodome to watch as the Minnesota Vikings play host to my beloved Washington Redskins. The primetime affair will feature 2 teams that have playoff aspirations. The Vikings go in to the game with an 8-6 record, and are the winners of 5 straight, while the Redskins come in with a 7-7 record, and fresh off a road victory against division rival New York.
Minnesota is lead by RB Adrian Peterson from the University of Oklahoma. Peterson has already amassed 1278 yards, while appearing in just 12 games thus far.
Washington will be lead by veteran QB Todd Collins. Collins has filled in admirably for Jason Campbell who was lost for the season 2 weeks ago with a knee injury. Washington will also be without the services of rookie LB Rocky McIntosh who tore both his ACL and MCL in his left knee in the win over the Giants.
It will be a long drive home Sunday night, so heres hoping for a great win for the Skins, and a pleasant weekend, weather wise.
