Dimon played Over 220.5 passing yards at +110 for Carson Wentz, reasoning that a likely negative game script will inflate volume. Wentz threw only 172 yards last week because Minnesota led 48-10 and he attempted just 20 passes; Dimon expects far more drop-backs against a Steelers defense that finished 25th against the pass in 2024 and sits 26th through three games this season. With Minnesota installed as a slight underdog and J.J. McCarthy still sidelined, Dimon projects Wentz to clear 35 attempts and eclipse the 220-yard threshold even in a Minnesota loss.

Dimon took +165 on DK Metcalf to find the end zone, highlighting growing chemistry with Aaron Rodgers after scores in Weeks 2 and 3. He concedes Minnesota’s secondary has been 'solid so far this year' but reminds readers it ranked 28th in 2025 and allowed 24 passing TDs. Dimon expects Rodgers to keep testing a unit that still sits in the bottom half of explosive-pass metrics, projecting enough red-zone volume for Metcalf to extend his scoring streak to three straight games.

Ricky Dimon grabbed the Steelers at +120, arguing that the neutral-site trip to Dublin magnifies Pittsburgh’s edge in quarterback and coaching experience. Aaron Rodgers and Mike Tomlin are 2-1 with their only loss coming to a Seahawks club Dimon calls 'respectable,' while Minnesota’s two wins required a late field goal against Chicago and a blowout of a Bengals roster missing several starters. With J.J. McCarthy sidelined, Carson Wentz gets the call for the Vikings, and Dimon notes Wentz has produced 'a very, very small' sample of recent success. He believes the Steelers’ more battle-tested core is built to handle the logistical quirks of an overseas game and expects them to 'take care of business' straight up.

Everett laid the 2.5 with Minnesota, arguing the Vikings’ front will overwhelm a shaky Steelers offensive line that has already surrendered stacks of pressure on Aaron Rodgers. He added that left tackle Christian Darrisaw’s return stabilizes protection, suspended WR Jordan Addison is back, RB Jordan Mason has seized backfield touches, and Carson Wentz suddenly has a full complement of weapons. Two defensive TDs last week showed the unit’s ceiling, and playing on fast Croke Park turf should amplify the pass-rush advantage.

Michael Fiddle said the 36.5-yard receiving prop for Jordan Addison is a buy-low spot. Addison is coming back from a three-game suspension, not an injury, so Fiddle expects a full snap share. With defenses rolling coverage toward Justin Jefferson, Addison keeps drawing lighter assignments yet still offers explosive-play upside. The market initially opened Addison’s line in the mid-40s but steamed it down to 36.5, a move Fiddle called an overreaction. He noted Minnesota is 7-0 in international games and the spread has already moved from Vikings ‑1.5 to ‑2.5, a signal bettors expect normal offensive efficiency. Fiddle believes the prop will rebound to roughly 40.5 before kickoff and wants to lock in the floor number now.

Vic Tafur laid the 2.5 points with Minnesota in Dublin, citing two edges. First, Carson Wentz finally benefited from blind-side bodyguard Christian Darrisaw, help rookie J.J. McCarthy still has not enjoyed. Second, Brian Flores’ ‘chess-master’ defense should overwhelm an aging Aaron Rodgers–led Steelers offense. With pass protection solved and schematic advantage on the other side of the ball, Tafur expects the Vikings to control the neutral-site matchup and cover.

Austin Mock backed the Steelers at +120 for their neutral-site game in Ireland versus the Vikings. His model has already downgraded Pittsburgh for three miserable defensive outings yet still spits out a true pick'em, while the market is pricing Minnesota as the favorite. Mock trusts a buy-low spot against a Carson Wentz offense, arguing Pittsburgh is unlikely to defend any worse than it has and that +115 is the worst number he would lay.

Eric Moody advised keeping T.J. Hockenson locked into fantasy line-ups. After a 15.9-point rebound in Week 3 (team-high five catches on six targets), Hockenson faces a Steelers defense allowing the second-most fantasy points to tight ends. Despite sharing snaps with Josh Oliver and Ben Yurosek, Hockenson still leads the position group in routes and red-zone snaps, making him a clear TE1 for Season-long and a strong mid-tier DFS play.

Seth Walder said Vikings linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel is live for a defensive touchdown this week. Van Ginkel already owns a reputation for baiting quarterbacks and jumping horizontal throws, and Walder noted Arthur Smith’s Pittsburgh offense leads the league in screen-pass rate. The Steelers have surrendered 32 explosive plays (20-plus pass yards / 12-plus rush yards) in only three games, and Kenny Pickett’s turnover-worthy-play rate sits at 4.7%. Walder framed the matchup as 'defensive-touchdown paradise' and likes Van Ginkel for pick-six props or a cheap IDP/DFS dart.

Logan pointed out that Minnesota ‘could have J.J. McCarthy back under center after he missed Week 3 with a high-ankle sprain,’ and early wagers have already flipped the neutral-site line from Steelers ‑1.5 to Vikings ‑1.5. He highlighted the quick 3-point swing as evidence the market is betting on McCarthy’s return, suggesting bettors who agree should lock in Minnesota before books move the number further.
