Re: The Vikings will soundly defeat the Steelers
I don't know if the Vikings will win convincingly but I do know Cassell will play convincingly better than Plonker.
Re: The Vikings will soundly defeat the Steelers
Not sure if even I'd say convincingly. How many snaps has he had with the 1st team this year? Ponder was the one throwing to those receivers (not like it shows). Cassel will get a chance now but might take a few weeks if he even gets that. He's been working with the second team up until what, tuesday? And even then Ponder still trying to be a tough china doll...Webbfann wrote:I don't know if the Vikings will win convincingly but I do know Cassell will play convincingly better than Plonker.

I pray it's convincingly. Enough to convince the people who aren't convinced yet.

Nice.
Re: The Vikings will soundly defeat the Steelers
I agree with GBFavreFan in his original post. He makes some valid points, but he forgot one factor ... this is the Vikings we're talking about here xD. We just lost a sure thing in a 1 dimensional Cleveland team with their 3rd string QB in our home opener. The Steelers game is essentially a prime time night game outdoors on grass and all that adds up to .......
Sucknado!

Re: The Vikings will soundly defeat the Steelers
"As we are no doubt aware at this point, the Pittsburgh Steelers will be taking on the Minnesota Vikings in London in just a couple of days. Both teams are searching for their first win, and in all likelihood, one team will be leaving London with their first win. Who will that team be, and what will happen over the course of the game?
I believe Adrian Peterson will rush for over 800 yards and nine touchdowns while Matt Cassel does not drop back to pass a single time. In addition, Ben throws two pick sixes and also has a fumble run back for a touchdown after being sacked fourteen times. The Vikings, out of pity, allow the Steelers to score a couple of garbage time touchdowns, making the final score 84-14 Vikings. With another loss, the Steelers become one step closer to getting Teddy Bridgewater.
What do the rest of you believe will happen?" - Steelers Fan Forum
Here is what the steelers fans are saying about the game. I thought it was pretty funny.

Haha see, the Vikings aren't the only team with negative Nancy's. At least they've won 6 bowls.

Re: The Vikings will soundly defeat the Steelers
The Steeler's OL has struggled like never before and they don't have a lot of weapons on offense ..
but they still have a pretty good level of talent on defense and better coached IMO
We will have to show up across the pond or 0-4 come bye week

That still leaves 25% unaccounted for!

Seriously, it would be great to see Cassel light it up, but I'm not holding my breath. It will be the first game I can watch in HD on my TV (not some crap internet feed), so I'm looking forward to that!

10 and 10. Net 0. Which is why it wouldn't be mentioned. The Steelers, on the other hand, are -9.Purple Jesus wrote: Yeah, we probably have as many giveaways as we do takeaways.

Re: The Vikings will soundly defeat the Steelers
Funny thing, the Oregon Ducks have a running back named Thomas Tyner who ran for 643yds and 10TDs in a high school game for Aloha High last year. They won the game 84-something. He had over 3400yds that season.vikingsfansince07 wrote:"As we are no doubt aware at this point, the Pittsburgh Steelers will be taking on the Minnesota Vikings in London in just a couple of days.

Probably not super uncommon for high school....but ADs projected numbers by the Steeler fan made me think of it.
Re: The Vikings will soundly defeat the Steelers
The defense played really soft in the fourth quarter and let the Steelers get very close in the

Re: The Vikings will soundly defeat the Steelers
Why are you feeding anyone crow but yourself?
They needed a huge play from the defense just to keep it from overtime.
That was as close a victory as our last 2 losses.
Roflburgers had nearly 400 yards passing and we won by 1 score
Hardly a sound defeat.......

Re: The Vikings will soundly defeat the Steelers
If Walsh hits that late FG, this win would've been much easier.

They eked out a win essentially by doing what they couldn't for two weeks in a row and you're posting quotes from others guys like it validates you some how. Real manly brah~
