Victor Stars
-Adrian Peterson will need to get things going on the ground to give us a shot at winning this game. The Steelers have allowed over 100 yards on the ground in their first three games. Expect AP to reach over 125 yards.
-Harrison Smith is going to have a lot of opportunities to make plays against a Steelers team that will come out throwing.
-Kyle Rudolph needs to get things going and why not in London? Look for Rudolph to be Cassel's go to receiver.
Steelers Stars
-Ben Roethlisberger is in need of a big stat day and should expose the Vikings secondary.
-Antoino Brown is an outstanding Wide Receiver who can make big plays. He should see 10 plus targets and could have a monster game.
-Troy Polamalu will be all over the field and will have many opportunities to get pressure on Cassel and Adrian.
Overall
We need to spread things out and not allow 8 guys in the box. We also need to get Patterson more involved in this offense which will help Peterson and Cassel. On defense we need to figure out how to stop Quarterbacks from throwing all over us. We must pressure Big Ben because he is known for holding onto the ball longer than usual and that can put Pittsburgh in tough third and long situations.
Prediction:
Vikings 17 Steelers 14.
Line: Pitt -3
