Betting odds have the Steelers favored by 2 points. The Colts lead the overall series 24-19, although Pittsburgh is 3-0 against the spread this season, while the Colts sit at 2-1.
In their last encounter, the Colts triumphed over the Steelers 30-13 in December 2023. Last week, the Steelers secured a win against the Chargers 20-10, while the Colts defeated the Bears 21-16.
Pittsburgh’s offense ranks overall at 24th, in rushing at 12th, passing at 29th, and scoring at 24th. In contrast, their defense stands out as the best overall, second in rushing, fifth in passing, and first in scoring.
The Colts show balance in offense, ranking 17th overall with 11th in rushing and 24th in passing, while their defense ranks 31st in total yards and 13th in scoring.
Key players to watch include Steelers QB Justin Fields, who has started strong in Pittsburgh, and Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr., who is seeking to make his impact felt after being sidelined in their previous meeting.
This game also features significant individual matchups, including Pittsburgh’s stout run defense against Colts’ star running back Jonathan Taylor, who is coming off a couple of strong performances.
Injuries may play a role, as the Steelers are missing key players like OLB Alex Highsmith and potentially LG Isaac Seumalo. Meanwhile, the Colts are dealing with injuries to Pro Bowl talent such as DT DeForest Buckner and CB JuJu Brents.
Pittsburgh aims to capitalize on their current momentum, having not lost since their last game against the Colts and looking to extend their winning streak.
For fantasy players, the Pittsburgh defense is poised to perform well, taking advantage of Richardson’s challenges in the passing game, making for a potentially exciting matchup.
