3 reasons why the Vikings will beat the Buccaneers in Week 1
Reason No. 3
Minnesota's home field advantage
Vikings fans seem to kick it into another gear during their home openers, and this Sunday should be no different. It is no surprise that U.S. Bank Stadium is one of the more hostile environments in all of the NFL.
Can a new-look Bucs offense that is led by a first-year offensive coordinator deal with all the noise that the Minnesota fans inside U.S. Bank Stadium are going to create? The Vikings' new blitz-heavy Brian Flores defense and a crowd that can reach jet levels of noise should make for a long day for Tampa Bay's offense on Sunday.
