The Minnesota Vikings will be looking to earn their first win of the season when they face the Carolina Panthers today at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina for Week 4 of the NFL season.

The Vikings are coming off a trio of early season losses to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in week one in Minneapolis, the Eagles in week two in Philadelphia, and the LA Chargers at U.S. Bank Stadium last week.

The last time the Vikings started a season 0-4 was in 2011, when the team finished the season with a 3-13 record.

Obviously the players I played with for so long, the coaches, people in the organization that I can't wait to see and give them a big hug. I'm going to get out extra early for pregame warmups so I can make sure I can see all those guys and all the people that have meant so much to me and really just thank them.
