The Minnesota Vikings (1-1) face the New Orleans Saints (0-2) this afternoon in the Big Easy following one of the most tumultuous weeks any NFL team has been asked to endure. Peterson out, in, and out. Jerome Simpson suspended, but coming back -- no wait, released. Is coach Priefer back? Roger that. (No wait, not that Roger.)

The Vikings are looking to rebound from their one-sided loss to the New England Patriots (1-1) last Sunday at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis. The Saints are in search of their first win of the new season. Both teams have a lot to play for with the kickoff set for Noon CST (TV: FOX, Radio: AM 1240 WJON).
