Vikings vs Cowboys in PreSeason Finale

The Minnesota Vikings and Dallas Cowboys will face off tomorrow night at the Metrodome in Minneapolis Minnesota for a 7:00pm start. This will be the final preseason game, before the home opener on September 9, against the Atlanta Falcons.

The Cowboys will host many return players like Terrell Owens, and surprise quarterback Tony Romo. Dallas is coming off a disappointing playoff loss in the first round last year, and are 2-1 this pre-season. Dallas has had impressive wins over Indianapolis Colts (23-10) and Denver Broncos (31-20), then a loss to the Houston Texans (28-16). Dallas will be hoping to come to Minnesota to spoil the Vikings pre-season finale. However, the Vikings will have other plans for the visiting Cowboys.

The Minnesota Vikings are coming off a disappointing 2006 season, where they were 6-10. Minnesota is also coming off a loss to the Seattle Seahawks last week 30-13. Minnesota has also lost to the St. Louis Rams 13-10 in the pre-season opener, but defeated the New York Jets 37-20. The Jets came into Minnesota last year and defeated the Vikings 26-13 on December 17th. Minnesota was able to avenge that loss in the pre-season.

This pre-season finale could be a pre-view of their match up later this season. Minnesota will travel to Dallas on October 21, for a 12 noon start. The Vikings lead the overall series against the Cowboys 12-9, and have won the last 5 meetings between the two teams. The Cowboys will be looking for a little revenge, and the Vikings will be looking to keep on their winnings ways against Dallas.

SKOL VIKINGS!!!!!!
