Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Indianapolis Colts Prediction
This game is significant as the two teams jockey for position in the AFC Wildcard hunt.
The Steelers have been outgained in most of their games this season, but they remain one game above 500 with a record of 7-6.
The Steelers have lost two consecutive games, most recently to one of the worst teams in football, the New England Patriots.
Pittsburgh will be without their starting quarterback, Kenny Pickett.
The injury to Pickett forced Mitch Trubisky into action. Trubisky struggled a week ago vs New England, throwing for 190 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.
The Steelers offense produced 264 yards of offense.
Najee Harris leads the Pittsburgh rushing attack. The former Alabama star has rushed for 690 yards and four touchdowns.
George Pickens has been the top option in the passing game. Pickens has hauled in 49 passes worth 767 yards and three touchdowns.
The Steelers defense ranks 7th in points allowed per game (19.2).
The Colts have been one of the most surprising teams in football this season.
First-year head coach Shane Steichen has done an outstanding job with this roster.
The Colts lost their starting quarterback, Anthony Richardson, early in the season to injury.
The injury forced veteran Gardner Minshew into action.
Minshew has played well, throwing for 2,524 yards, eleven touchdowns, and eight interceptions.
Running back Zack Moss leads the Colts in rushing with 751 yards and five touchdowns.
Wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. has had the best year of his career, racking up 984 yards and four touchdowns.
The Colts defense ranks 29th in points allowed per game (25.4).
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Indianapolis Colts Pick
The Steelers' offense looked bad last week with Trubisky at the helm.
Pittsburgh will struggle once again this week despite the Colts' defense having their struggles.
The Steelers have a top-10 defense, and their defensive front will eat vs. this Colts offensive line.
Both teams will want to run the ball, which means the clock will be rolling for most of the half.
