The Minnesota Vikings had their chances to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 4, but they couldn’t get out of their own way long enough to make it happen.
Carson Wentz was sacked seven times on Sunday, and the Vikings’ last-second effort fell short as they lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers by a score of 24-21 in the NFL’s first-ever game in Dublin, Ireland.
The Vikings avoided disaster on their first drive, as Jordan Mason fumbled the ball away and it was recovered by Jalen Ramsey for what appeared to be a 60-yard defensive touchdown for Pittsburgh, but it was ruled that Mason had touched the loose ball with a leg out of bounds, making it a dead ball. The Vikings took advantage of their reprieve, getting a 41-yard field goal from Will Reichard to stake the Vikings to an early 3-0 lead.
