But it won’t be the Vikings"Since 2006 Kyle Rudolph Jersey , the National Football League has started off the regular season with a game at the home of the team that won the Super Bowl the previous season. eptember, however, the league could potentially be leaning another direction.And it would mean Minnesota Vikings fans would start the season by watching two of their division rivals in prime time.Sports Business Journal is reporting that, rather than have the 2019 season opener at the home of the New England Patriots, the league may kick off the year with the NFL’s oldest matchup: The Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears. The game would be held in Chicago.The Patriots Linval Joseph Jersey , then, would be featured on the first Sunday Night Football broadcast of the year. If I had to venture a guess, that game would be likely to feature an AFC Championship rematch, with the Patriots hosting the Kansas City Chiefs.Only once since 2006 has the Super Bowl champion not hosted the season opener, and that happened in 2013 when the Baltimore Ravens played in Denver due to scheduling conflicts they had with the Baltimore Orioles. But Kirk Cousins Jersey , in that case, at least the champions were involved in the season opener.I can understand the league’s desire to highlight the Chicago/Green Bay matchup to kick off the league’s 100th season. I can also understand if fans of the Minnesota Vikings would find other things to do that Thursday night. I know I certainly would.Do you think the league should go this direction with the 2019 opener?Hannah Storm, Andrea Kremer to make history at Vikings/Rams game When the Minnesota Vikings take on the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football, people viewing the game will have the option to listen to history.The game is going to be streamed on Amazon Prime as part of their 11-game deal with the NFL this season, and Amazon announced today that the play-by-play duties will be handled by Hannah Storm and Andrea Kremer. This will mark the first time that an NFL game is called by an all-female booth. Earlier this year Adrian Peterson Jersey , Beth Mowins of ESPN became the first woman to call a nationally-televised NFL game in over 30 years when she called the second half of ESPN’s Monday Night Football doubleheader, but this will be the first time that both halves of the commentary booth will be women.Both are certainly qualified to be up there. Storm has had numerous hosting jobs over the course of her career, handling everything from the NFL to the NBA to the Olympics and significantly more. Kremer was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame earlier this year as the winner of the annual Pete Rozelle Award, which recognizes “long-time exceptional contributions to radio and television in professional football.”The Storm/Kremer combination will be one of four commentary options for anyone watching the game on Amazon Prime. Prime viewers can also have a Spanish commentary team, a team from the United Kingdom John Randle Jersey , or. . .I guess. . .you could listen to the regular Thursday Night Football combination of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman.Will you be listening to the first all-woman announcing team to call an NFL game on Thursday night, folks?
