Preview

The Steelers are favored by a healthy 10 points, but judging by recent history between these teams, that spread may not be nearly large enough. In the past three head-to-head matchups, the Steelers have out-scored the Colts 124-51, with Ben Roethlisberger torching Indy’s secondary for 1,107 yards, 13 touchdowns and zero interceptions over that stretch.

And while Pittsburgh’s passing offense hasn’t been nearly as explosive as year’s past–Roethlisberger has surpassed 300 yards just twice this season, and he has a 1:6 TD:INT ratio in those games–the Colts secondary remains ripe for the picking. Indy ranks last in the NFL in yards per attempt allowed (8.3), 24th in sack percentage (5.4) and 25th in Football Outsiders’ pass defense efficiency rankings.

The Colts, though, are relishing the opportunity to test their secondary.

“Everybody understands what’s coming to town,” Colts head coach Chuck Pagano said. “You don’t need to beat a dead horse. … You can’t give up big plays to [Brown]. Can’t allow him to wreck the game, and he’s done it over and over and over again. A [future] Hall of Fame quarterback [like Roethlisberger] that has thrown for a ton of yards and completed a bunch of passes and touchdown passes and no interceptions; we know all that stuff. It’s why we’re excited about the opportunity. It’s a chance to do something that nobody will give us a shot at doing.”

Unfortunately for the Colts, slowing down Pittsburgh’s offense is one half of the equation. They’ll also have to find a way to protect Jacoby Brissett against an aggressive defense that is fourth in the NFL in sacks (26) and third in sack percentage (9.0). And that’s an extremely tall task considering the Colts’ shaky offensive line has them ranked last offensively (35 sacks allowed; 10.8 sack percentage) in both of those respective categories.

Put it all together, and the Steelers should coast to a 7-2 record.
