Steelers Beat Saints 16-10 in Paris as NFL Week 7 Continues With Vikings-Colts, 49ers-Falcons
Photo: The Guardian USThe Pittsburgh Steelers beat the New Orleans Saints 16-10 on Sunday in Paris, the NFL's first regular-season game in France. Aaron Rodgers threw one touchdown pass, a 4-yarder to tight end Darnell Washington, and Chris Boswell kicked three field goals, including a 47-yarder just before halftime and a 39-yarder after linebacker Payton Wilson intercepted Tyler Shough in the red zone. Jaylen Warren rushed for 101 yards, Rodgers completed 19 of 30 passes for 212 yards, and the Saints rushed for 18 yards. Pittsburgh improved to 5-2 and New Orleans fell to 2-5. Shough completed 30 of 38 passes for 278 yards. Also on Sunday, the 5-0 Minnesota Vikings hosted the 2-4 Indianapolis Colts at U.S. Bank Stadium at 1 p.m. ET as 7-point favorites, with the Colts having just dismissed general manager Chris Ballard. The San Francisco 49ers visited the 2-4 Atlanta Falcons after a 23-17 Monday-night win over the Commanders. Receiver Mike Evans left that game with an Achilles injury, and his status was uncertain.
The Guardian US, on the left, runs a live blog of Week 7 headlined with several matchups. It opens with a report from Paris on the Steelers' win "amid the protests" and then gives a detailed account of the game: scoring order, yardage, sacks and the key interception. The New York Post, on the right, leads with a 49ers-Falcons prediction. It calls the game a possible trap for San Francisco because of cross-country travel, a short week and wide receiver injuries. It cites a drop from 9.3 yards per play with Evans to 4.5 after he left, and its writer picks Atlanta with the points. Both sides cover Week 7 games, but they cover different ones. The left reports a finished result, while the right offers forward-looking betting advice, and the two do not contradict each other on facts. CBS Sports, the independent source, is closer to the Post in format: a Colts-Vikings betting preview built on odds, a simulation model and a sportsbook promotion, with Ballard's dismissal as context.
