The Oakland Raiders are coming back to TCF Bank Stadium for another Saturday night preseason game in August.
Everything and nothing is the same for Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, who threw his first pass for Minnesota in last year's 10-6 victory over the Raiders.
The rookie relieved starter Matt Cassel on the Vikings' second series, and fans chanted "Teddy! Teddy!" as he broke the huddle. He completed 6 of 13 passes for 49 yards but was sacked twice and looked overwhelmed at times.
A more assured Bridgewater is ready for the encore.
"To be where I am now and where we are as a team right now, I'm pretty comfortable, pretty confident heading into this game," he said Thursday.
