2023-24 NFL Week 2: Minnesota Vikings vs. Philadelphia Eagles September 14, 2023 by Marc Jerbs

On Thursday, the Minnesota Vikings will play the Philadelphia Eagles to start Week 2 of the 2023-24 NFL season.

Kick-off is set 8:15PM EDT at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, PA.

The Philadelphia Eagles hopes to shake off a lackluster performance in their Week 1 win against the New England Patriots.

Philadelphia will have its home season opener in Week 2 and the fans expect them to play that won them the NFC Conference Championship last season.

Eagles' QB Jalen Hurts had a so-so performance and was not himself in putting up outstanding stats compared to last season.

He did promise that it will be a different Philadelphia Eagles that will play against the Minnesota Vikings.

The Minnesota Vikings turned over half of its starting lineup and named Brian Flores as their new defensive coordinator during the offseason.

In Week 1, the new defensive line did not perform as planned in their 20-17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Expect Minnesota to fine tune some things and they could possibly earn it first win of the season on the road.

The sportsbook handicappers have installed the Philadelphia Eagles as the favorites to win over the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday night.
