It’s game day, ladies and gentlemen! But, for us, it’s going to turn into game night, as we’ve got a long time to wait today to see the Minnesota Vikings take the field. They’ll be facing off with the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football this evening, so it’s going to be a late night for those of us who will be waiting to watch the purple. We want everyone to be able to follow along with the action via whatever means they enjoy the most, so we’re giving you all the ways that you can do that right here.
Yes, we will indeed be waiting all day for Sunday Night, as kickoff for this one is slated for 7:20 PM Central time this evening. The game will be broadcast on NBC networks around the country, including KARE-11 in the Twin Cities, with Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth on the call. No need for a map for this one, folks, as it’s going to be the only game in town. You don’t even need YouTube NFL Sunday Ticket!
For our men and women in uniform serving overseas, the American Forces Network will be showing this one LIVE on AFN Sports. Kickoff is slated for 0115Z on Monday morning, which translates to 0215L on Monday morning for everyone in Central Europe, 0415L on Monday morning for folks in Iraq and Kuwait, and 1015L on Monday morning for fans in Japan and Korea.

According to the folks from Football Zebras, the officiating crew for this week’s game will be headed up by Scott Novak. This will be the second time this season the Vikings have seen Novak’s crew, and they’ll be hoping for a similar result. The last time they saw Novak and company was their 21-17 victory over the Cleveland Browns in London back in October.
Well, Jerryworld is an indoor venue, so the weather isn’t going to affect the game in any way. If you’re down in Dallas and will be heading to the game or taking part in any pregame activities, it should be a fairly nice afternoon/evening according to our friends at WeatherNation. Temperatures at kickoff will be down into the low 40s with no chance of precipitation and some light winds out of the north.
