Steelers beat Saints in Paris in NFL Week 7; Colts-Vikings and 49ers-Falcons previewed
Photo: The Guardian USAaron Rodgers threw one touchdown pass and Chris Boswell kicked three field goals as the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the New Orleans Saints 16-10 on Sunday in the NFL's first regular-season game in France, played in Paris. Rodgers completed 19 of 30 passes for 212 yards, including a 4-yard touchdown to tight end Darnell Washington, and Jaylen Warren rushed for 101 yards as Pittsburgh improved to 5-2 and won its third straight. Linebacker Payton Wilson intercepted Tyler Shough in the red zone, and New Orleans (2-5) rushed for only 18 yards. Elsewhere in Week 7, the unbeaten Minnesota Vikings (5-0) host the Colts (2-4) at U.S. Bank Stadium at 1 p.m. ET, favored by 7 points at DraftKings, after Indianapolis dismissed general manager Chris Ballard. The San Francisco 49ers, 23-17 winners over the Commanders on Monday night, travel to face the 2-4 Falcons in Atlanta, with receiver Mike Evans' status uncertain after an Achilles injury.
The left-leaning Guardian US and the right-leaning New York Post cover different games, so their facts do not conflict. The Guardian US runs a live-updates item on the Steelers' win in Paris, led by a game report with detailed stats: Rodgers' passing line, Warren's rushing total, Shough's 30-of-38, 278-yard day, Wilson's interception and Boswell's field goals. Its subheading mentions protests in Paris, but the opening text does not elaborate. The New York Post publishes a pick column on 49ers-Falcons, framing it as a possible trap game because of cross-country travel, a short week and receiver injuries. It cites the 49ers' 9.3 yards per play with Evans versus 4.5 without him, and the writer says he would take Atlanta with the points. The Guardian reports a finished result; the Post offers a forward-looking, opinionated betting angle. CBS Sports similarly offers a betting preview of Colts-Vikings, with odds and a model's picks.
