The Vikings will try to prove that they’re a legitimate Super Bowl contender when they take on the reigning champion Pittsburgh Steelers this weekend. Last season, this matchup would have probably been a hard-fought defensive battle with both teams trying to move the ball on the ground. This season, however, we’ll probably see a shootout between two aerial attacks that have been quite impressive this season. There are a lot of people jumping on the Brett Favre bandwagon already, but a win against Pittsburgh would result in a lot of hop-ons
Another interesting matchup is the game between the Bears and the Bengals. Both teams are trying to prove that they’re a playoff team after tough losses last week. The Niners and Texans will also be attempting to show the league that they’re contenders for the postseason. The Texans have the offense to play with any team in the league and have shown it in recent weeks. The Niners will be getting Frank Gore back and we’ll also see the debut of wide receiver Michael Crabtree. The Giants-Cardinals game is another interesting matchup, as the Giants are coming off a tough loss to the Saints, while the Cardinals seem to be on the upswing a bit.
