Steelers@Vikings Game Day Discussion Thread--London Edition

[Canuck]

I dunno. Didn't we give up 31 points to a Trent Richardson free, 3rd string QB Cleveland Browns team at home?

Exactly!! we thought we were going to blowout the browns and we lost that game. We are playing a better team this week in London, and not sure how its considered a home game.. did they flip a coin and see who had to make it a home game, its 50/50 fans, hell the Steelers still have their name on the field

I agree. I know the Vikings are struggling but I don't see them losing in a blowout. Both teams are suckish right now. So if anything, this will be a close game and a battle of who can make the fewest turnovers.

Are you sure about that? This is like a prime time game outdoors on grass. That's usually a recipe for blowout for this team. Having said that, since the Vikings always lose when I pick them to win, I'll say Steelers 30-20.

Gene simmons singing the national anthem? Boy he's got no vocal range at all

[Texas Vike]

Gene Simmons singing the Anthem?! Hell yeah! W/O the make up and blood though. Love that he has a purple handkerchief.

If Cassel cant get Kyle and Webb the ball, Musgrave should lose his job on the flight home.

I thought we were the home team? I just saw a shot of the field and one end zone is painted Steelers.

God save the queen? If there was ever a reason to not have NFL games or a team in London, it's that being sung at an american football game..

God Save The Queen ! now lets rock !

I live in Alabama, we get the Atlanta Falcons TV coverage every week. It's been like this for years. The only time I see the Vikings on TV is when we go against the Packers and Bears or when we are on CBS which seems to be the main coverage for AFC teams.

Yep, I hear you. A good portion of us live out of the typical viewing area of the Vikings. If you follow the link you'll find a site that will inform you of what game will be televised each week in all parts of the US. Very helpful.

For example, when the Falcons play a Monday or Sunday night game you may have a shot at getting a Vikings game televised.

End zones have both teams. There's giant Viking banners all around the lower part of the stadium though.
