The Houston Texans and the Minnesota Vikings will face off in a big Week 5 game on Sunday with the Vikings looking to maintain their winning start to the new season for another week. The game has a scheduled start time of 1 p.m. ET and takes place from the U.S. Bank Stadium in Minnesota. The game can be watched on TV on the CBS network or online through live stream via the link below.

The Vikings claimed their fourth win of the season on Monday, gaining a comfortable and hard-earned win over the New York Giants.

The Giants made the Vikings work for the win, but the result was never really in doubt in the 24-10 victory for Minnesota.

The Texans meanwhile got back to winning ways with a 27-20 win over the Tennessee Titans last week. That victory moved them to 3-1, and so far they will be relatively satisfied with where they stand with a quarter of the season gone so far.

However, the Texans will be hungry to grab a fourth win of the season today and move to 4-1 but they will have their work cut out against a strong Vikings set up this season.

Earlier this week on NFL Thursday Night Football the Arizona Cardinals gained a valuable road win over the San Francisco 49ers.

Both teams entered the clash on 1-3, and both knew that they were facing almost must-win situations to salvage their seasons.

Following a tense first half the teams were level on 7-7, but the second half saw the Cardinals turn the screw and they pulled away to win the encounter 33-21.

The result moved the Cardinals onto a much more respectable 2-3 although they still have a lot more work to do over the coming few weeks to get themselves back into postseason contention. The 49ers meanwhile suffered their fourth defeat of the season in just five weeks and that leaves their season more or less in tatters. It's hard to see how they can turn their season around from here, and already it may be more about re-building for next season than having any realistic chance of making a run for the Playoffs this year.

Arizona managed to claim 17 points from three turnovers by the 49ers in the game, including two interceptions by Blaine Gabbert as well as a a fumble kickoff return by Chris Davis.

49ers coach Chip Kelly said after the game: "I don't think anybody played well on offense. Nobody. I don't think we protected well enough, I don't think we threw it well enough and we had too many drops and two interceptions."

Meanwhile, defensive lineman Calais Campbell said, "We've been saying all week it just starts with one. Just get one win and try to stack them. We've been a team in the past that can rip off a bunch of them. ... Now we have to figure out what we can do to keep that ball rolling."
