Pittsburgh Steelers, Ireland and Vikings

Pittsburgh Steelers backup quarterback Skylar Thompson was jumped and robbed in Dublin, Ireland, on Friday prior to the Steelers' 24-21 win over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers didn’t want to disappoint the Rooney family against the Minnesota Vikings in Ireland’s first regular-season NFL game.
Down 24-21, the Vikings got the ball back with 1:02 to play, from their own 20. Eventually, they faced fourth and 12 from their own 37 with 14 seconds to play. The Vikings inadvertently took a delay of game penalty, making it fourth and 17.
Both teams enter Sunday's game with 2-1 records. Pittsburgh rebounded from its Week 2 loss to Seattle by beating the Patriots in Week 5 on the strength of five forced turnovers. The Vikings also rebounded from a rough outing in Week 2, dominating the Bengals last Sunday in a game that saw their defense actually outscore Cincinnati's offense.
Staying across from Adare Manor (the site of the 46th Ryder Cup in 2027) while the Bethpage Black festivities were occurring was indeed unique.
The Minnesota Vikings, led by quarterback Carson Wentz, face the Pittsburgh Steelers, led by quarterback Aaron Rodgers on Sunday, Sept. 28, 2025 at Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland.
