MNF "ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL"
(NFL) Pittsburgh vs. Indianapolis,
Point Spread: -2.50 | -110.00 Indianapolis (Home)
Result: Loss
The Pittsburgh Steelers go on to the road to take on the Indianapolis Colts in a Monday Night football matchup. The Pittsburgh Steelers committed to rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett early in the season and is going through growing pains. Pittsburgh is ranked 26th in scoring defense and 31st against the pass, but those should approve with TJ Watt returning to the lineup. On the offensive side, they are 28th in scoring offense, 22nd rushing the ball, and 24th throwing the ball. Jeff Saturday has the Colts playing better since taking over as head coach. Matt Ryan is back as the starting quarterback and Jonathan Taylor is once again being used as the featured back he is. The Colts' offense is just 26th in the league in rushing and 31st in scoring offense. Defensively, they are 11th in scoring defense this season, 12th against the run, and sixth against the pass. Under Saturday the Colts have gone to a more ball control offense and more reliance on Jonathan Pittsburgh ranks 7th in the NF against the run. The Steelers with Pickett at quarterback have been relying on the pass but will be taking on a Colts defense that allowed less than 200 yards to the Eagles last week. Pickett has been prone to throwing interceptions. I like the way the Colts have been playing under Saturday and will use Taylor and the home field to pick up another win.

Play on the Colts.
