This time the Steelers get nice offensive production from Big Ben and the Unit but defensively the Steelers get handles by the Twin Cities Avenger #28 and that Skol O-Line. The Vikes win 34-27 after leading 34-17 midway through the 3rd frame.
The Men of Steel knew coming in it was going to be a tall order as they had to get a "W" and to compound matters stop the NFL's #1 Running Back. They didn't achieve either as Skol Nation walks off with the "W" and English Draft Cider and get their 1st win of 2013. (pictured right a 1968 Steelers Helmet the last time this was worn the Steelers started the Season 0-4)
The Vikings Offensively vs the Steelers moved the Pig like Clockwork as QB Matt Cassel went 16/25 for 248 yards and two TDs. Both Top WRs Jerome Simpson (7 grabs 124 yds) and Greg Jennings (3 grabs for 92 yards 2 TD) had a field day on the Steelers Secondary. Throw the Air Attack in with a 140 yard day from All Day A.P. on 23 carries...Steelers had no shot on this day.
Vikes
Big Ben was 36/51 for 383 yards 1 TD and 1 INT but none of that matters as they have yet to put one in the right column which is the Win Column. Steelers WR Jerricho Cotchery had five grabs for 103 yards whole Tone 2.0...Antonio Brown had twelve grabs for 88 yards. An encouraging sign was Rookie RB Le'veon Bell had 16 carries for 57 yards and Two TDs on the ground.
The Steelers came in just giving up 298 Total Yards but gave the Vikes 348 total yards. Now comes the Bye Week as the Steelers have to be thinking when does a "W" come and how does it come as they are at the bottom of the NFL through Week 4 in a lot of categories.
