Season Opener - The Downtowner

Vikings Open with 28-6 Victory Over the New York Giants MIAMI VIKES fans packed the house at the last season opener at the Downtowner Saloon The Minnesota Vikings had an impressive start to the 2024 regular season with a 28-6 victory over the New York Giants. The team's performance set a strong tone for the season ahead.

Sam Darnold made a solid debut for the Minnesota Vikings, throwing for 208 yards and two touchdowns. Aaron Jones, Justin Jefferson, and Jalen Nailor each contributed a touchdown, while Andrew Van Ginkel added a defensive touchdown. The Vikings' defense dominated, sacking Daniel Jones and the Giants five times. The performance was so commanding that, by the fourth quarter, departing Giants fans at MetLife Stadium were replaced by the sound of Vikings fans doing the Skol chant, audible on the TV broadcast.
