By Gonzo Well, last week the Steelers provided the Vikings with their biggest challenge of the season to date, and the Vikings responded by. . .putting up their worst red zone performance of the year.  This is what we in the business call "bad timing."

By Associated Press A scoring change has given the Minnesota Vikings an additional sack of Ben Roethlisberger during Pittsburgh's 27-17 victory on Sunday. Roethlisberger was sacked four times, giving him 20 for the season.

The Vikings-Steelers and Falcons-Cowboys games combined to help draw record television ratings last Sunday.

By JesseDForrer Welcome to week 8 of the NFL season. Week 8 finds the Broncos one of only 3 remaining undefeated teams, sharing that distinction with the New Orleans Saints, and the Indianapolis Colts after Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings lost their first game to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

By By JUDY BATTISTA Late in the fourth quarter, two miscues by Brett Favre, a fumble and an interception, both led to touchdowns by the Steelers and the Vikings’ first loss of the season.

The Vikings were on the move in the closing minutes of Sunday's game, but the magic that Brett Favre has so often brought to those situations was absent this time.

The Vikings-Steelers game was the first in NFL history to feature three return touchdowns of 75 yards or longer in a fourth quarter.

By Gonzo Minnesota's touchdown came on a 2-yard run by Adrian Peterson after a very impressive 13-play drive.  Ben Roethlisberger answered in the two-minute drill as the Vikings inexplicably went to a soft zone defense, allowing Mike Wallace to get free for a 40-yard touchdown reception.
