We’ve finally made it back to honest-to-God regular season NFL football, ladies and gentlemen. The 2018 regular season will kick off on Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium, as the Minnesota Vikings will play host to the San Francisco 49ers.
The Niners are one of the more intriguing teams in the NFL going into this season, due in large part to the way they finished the 2017 season. They started out with a 1-10 record, but after handing the offense over to Jimmy Garoppolo, they reeled off five straight wins to finish the season.
