The Steelers beat the Vikings 24-21 in Ireland on Sunday morning. Most of the game was not as close as the final score would suggest. Pittsburgh went up two scores in the first half and kept Minnesota at arm's length until late in the fourth quarter, when Carson Wentz engineered two touchdowns in the last eight minutes to bring the Vikes to within a field goal.
The Steelers had a chance to put the game away for good after the two-minute warning. Aaron Rodgers's offense had the ball on fourth down with less than one yard to gain on Minnesota's 40-yard line. The Vikings had no timeouts left and as such a first down would have ended the contest; with the ball in opposing territory it was a relatively low-risk proposition as well.
