Offensive struggles from the Colts have led them to being one of the more disappointing teams in football. They have a knack for keeping games close, but when the game is on the line mistakes happen. Pittsburgh has given enough starts to rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett to trust him in this primetime road spot. I'm on the Steelers.
The Colts nearly moved to 2-0 under Jeff Saturday before a deflating Jalen Hurts TD sent them packing with a loss. Their offensive line went back to struggling when facing a quality pass rush, and now T.J. Watt comes to town. Pittsburgh's defense is fifth in yards per rush allowed, so this one is going to be on Matt Ryan's shoulders for as long as they remain upright. The Colts are a tough matchup defensively for anyone, but Kenny Pickett looked in the Bengals loss like he's taking steps toward being a solid QB. This will be a tough environment for him in primetime, but the Steelers defense will put him in a position to succeed. Getting the full field goal, the Steelers are the play.
