Today's game has a scheduled start time of 8 p.m. ET and takes place from he TCF Bank Stadium in Minnesota. The game can be watched online through live stream via the link below.
With Week 1 of the preseason calendar out of the way, fans can expect regular season starters to play at least a quarter in today's game, and some starters even getting a full half of football.
Both the Vikings and the Raiders have used Teddy Bridgewater and David Carr sparingly so far in their season preparations, but they should start to get more of a showing this week and next as both teams make sure their quarterbacks are ready for the new season.
Vikings fans will have to wait longer for Adrian Peterson to take to the field again, after his recent minor thigh injury which took place during practice a few weeks back. The good news for Minnesota is that he has returned to training and is getting back to fitness and he should be ready to go come the start of the season.
Both of these teams have not experienced the success they desire over recent seasons, and they will be desperate to start the season solidly to make sure they are competitive for the Playoffs as the first month or two of the season pass by.
There have been bright sparks in preseason preparations for both teams as both quarterbacks have looked solid and confident when they've played so far.
Vikings' Bridgewater has completed 12 of 14 passes for 130 yards through his two preseason run outs so far, where as Raiders' Carr managed to connect well with Amari Cooper a number of times against the Rams last week. Both sets of fans will hope they can continue to look the part as the season draws closer.
