Vikings/Steelers Third Quarter Thread

PrintA bit more action in the second quarter of play, as both teams put the ball into the end zone.
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.
The score stands at 10-7 in favor of Pittsburgh, and the Steelers will get the ball first coming out of the locker room. Let's hope the Vikings can shake off the bad ending of the first half and come out firing again.

Please let’s not let that 2 minute D take over for the entire second half… Man it up a little bit.
Avoid Prevent Defense at all costs.

ok
we have scored some riducluous total of point s in our first drive of the second half
lets add a touchdown to that total
Steelers extend the lead
After getting gashed early on in the drive, the Vikings stiffen in the red zone and make the Steelers settle for a 27-yard Jeff Reed field goal.
Steelers’ drive went 55 yards in 9 plays, taking 3:55 to accomplish. The Steelers had zero passing yards on that drive. . .everything happened on the ground.
Steelers 13, Vikings 7, 11:05 left in the third quarter.

Sidney got robbed
I still think Sidney Rice got robbed because when he was tackled the ball hit the ground on the goal line.

It's better than the 7 billion advertisements for the George Lopez talk show
that aired when the twins were in the ALDS.
I’ll say it again – If I have to listen to anymore idiots talk about how great Minny’s run-blocking is and how wonderfule AP is, I’ll die. This is ridiculous with supposedly the BEST NFL RB and you can’t punch it in from the one and have to rely on crap pas plays?
Really
They gave him one try and he LEADS the NFL in rushing yards. So, yes, AP is wonderful
You are fucking insane...
Please stop with the stupid comments. The Vikings do have one of the best rushing games in the NFL. Period. Stop.

At about the Minnesota 22. Vikings will take over from there.

What a horrible game so far. Pitt isn’t even that stout on defense and Bevell is playing right into the few stengths they have. TEERRIBLE play calling at the one yard line. With supposedly the BEST NFL RB and you refuse to run more than once at the goal line? This is a recipe for losing games downt he stretch.
OK, not quite as good as a turnover, but at this point....GOOD

If our two Pro Bowlers are on the left-hand side of the line. . .why does it seem like we run right more often than we run left?

Childress throwing the red flag is the correct thing to do. Sidney Rice landed inbounds.
