Vikings Breakdown: Minnesota escaped disaster last weekend at the Metrodome as they blew a big lead against the Ravens 
and had to rely on a missed Baltimore field goal to preserve their unbeated record. The Vikes defense gave up an uncharacteristic 448 yards as the Joe Flacco led passing attack of Baltimore totaled 367 yards at 8.5 yards per pass. Surprisingly, despite ranking first in the league in sacks with 21, Minnesota's pass defense has had trouble slowing the opposition down. The group currently ranks 24th in the league in pass yards allowed at 248.3.
They will need to shore things up against a Steelers squad that averages almost 300 yards per game through the air.
Steelers Breakdown: Pittsburgh has won two straight entering today's game, their latest conquest occuring last weekend against the Browns. The Steelers beat their division rival by a score of 27-14 at Heinz Field, but their statistical domination was even greater than the final tally indicated. Mike Tomlin's squad posted 543 yards and 28 first downs, despite turning the ball over four times. Ben Roethlisberger threw for 417 yards and two touchdowns in the easy win.
Pittsburgh's defense, which ranks third in the league in yards per game allowed (275), yielded just 197 to Cleveland's atrocious offense. The Browns managed a paltry 12 first downs and possessed the ball for 23:14.
NFL Odds Betting Trend: Pittsburgh is 7-0 straight up and 6-1 against the spread over the last five years playing as a home favorite coming off a home win. The Over is 6-0-1 in those games as well.
