How 'bout them Cowboys? After a rainy spring and a long, hot summer, it's finally time to dust off those jerseys and head to Jerry World to celebrate the start of a brand-new season. And nothing showcases the anticipation of this fresh start more than the first home preseason game, setting the stage for re-energized fans, playoff hopes and Super Bowl dreams. Following two away games against the San Diego Chargers and the San Francisco 49ers, Jason Garrett's crew will finally head home to Arlington to take on the Minnesota Vikings during Week 3 of the preseason.
Another reason to anticipate the game is the return of infamous #28, running back Adrian Peterson. He missed almost a full season with the Minnesota Vikings last year and was rumored to be trading in his Vikings jersey for a Cowboys' one just a few months ago. He's chosen to continue donning purple for now, but we'll be proudly wearing our blue and white, cheering on our favorite NFL team from first down to touchdown with shouts of “Let's Go Cowboys” that will be heard from Dallas all the way to Minneapolis.
