Wow, a rare Steelers game I'm actually interested in watching. This should be a good one.

Final: Vikings 31, Steelers 24. Adrian Peterson runs over the Steelers D for 146 yards and 2 TDs.

I hope you're right, but the Steelers are nearly impossible to run on! I'm thinking that they gameplan to stop Peterson, but get tore up by Farve's aerial assult. (Look back to the Packers game a couple weeks ago.)Expect the Steelers to show their usual weakness in their secondary, especially trying to cover Rice, Berrian, and Shianco. (I can never spell his name right!) On the flip side, the Vikes secondary doesn't look too good either, which could help Big Ben, Hines, and Holmes put up big numbers and keep the game interesting. Defensively, I think the Vikings front four should limit the weaker running game of the Steelers and make Ben wish he had a "real" offensive line in front of him! One side note...If Parker or Mendenhall don't get at least 100 yards rushing and a td, the Steelers are looking at a long day! The Vikings are NOT the Browns or Bengals! This team is a REAL superbowl contender with the league's reigning rushing leader, a top 3 run defense, and a sure Hall of Famer on it's roster. For the Steelers to win this one, they'll need to return to the form of football that got them to the superbowl last year, and even that may not be enough...

should be a good game but O lines are everything. If Big Ben has to pass on every down the Vikes will eat the Steelers O-Line alive. STill, as long as Ben is in the backfield the Steelers have a shot.

DBacks seem to be weaknesses on both sides, and long passes may rule the game. I take Purple Jesus and the Vikes 30-24.

I think Big Ben will have a great game trying to show up the old man.

I don't think so...The Steeler's unusualy weak running game and their suspect secondary won't stop both Peterson and Favre. I don't have anything in the world against the Steelers, but I'll say it how it is. Sorry Bears fans, (and Packer fans too!) but no team in the NFC North can touch the Vikings this year!

I have faith in Dick Lebeau, he will have an answer to the Vike's High Power offense. AP listed on injury list, I'm sure he'll play though. Here's to hoping the Vikings will be humbled, hungry and 6 - 1 for thier date at Green Bay.

The Steelers are becoming jail trash more and more every day. I hope they lose against Minnesota and hope they don't go to the playoffs. They don't deserve to be there.

C'mon, lighten up. How many teams win back to back anymore? Pick the 6 best teams 2 weeks before the playoffs and depending on injuries and luck one will win. The BEST team rarely wins the Super Bowl.

Reed's an *******, no doubt about it, and the Rooney's should have suspended him. But it's all about MONEY, and they have no one to replace him. He will not be on the roster next year, to be sure.
