The Steelers have had the Colts’ number for a while now.
Pittsburgh has won eight straight games in the series; Indianapolis’ last win came in 2015 when Peyton Manning still wore the horseshoe.
Now would be a good time to break that streak. Both teams sit just inside the playoff picture, being two of six AFC teams with a 7-6 record. A win for either would go a long way.
With the way things are going right now, it feels unlikely for the Steelers to win inside Lucas Oil Stadium. Kenny Pickett is still out, so the ball is in Mitch Trubisky’s hands. He got better throughout the loss to New England, but by then it was too late. The Steelers dropped their second straight game, causing more concern for Mike Tomlin.
The Colts, too, suffered a deflating loss last week to the Bengals, breaking their four-game win streak. They’ll need to bounce back, and quick, to move out of the seventh and final AFC playoff spot. Though things are looking shaky for Pittsburgh, it has the rest advantage over Indianapolis, having played Thursday rather than Sunday.
