Colts vs Steelers Preview
Many left the Colts for dead after franchise quarterback Andrew Luck suddenly retired before the season, but Jacoby Brissett has done a solid job filling in. He’s passed for 1,590 yards, 14 touchdowns and just 3 interceptions.
“It wasn’t so much good fortune as it was having a great GM who had the foresight to trade for Jacoby Brissett while Andrew was still here,” Colts head coach Frank Reich said. “And I really think (general manager Chris Ballard) deserves a lot of credit for that and getting him here, and what he thought — and what I now knew to believe when I got here — as, ‘Hey, this guy’s a top-level quarterback.’”
The Steelers are also missing their franchise quarterback in Ben Roethlisberger, who had season-ending elbow surgery. Mason Rudolph is filling in, and is come off one of his best performances as a pro, having thrown for for 251 yards and two touchdowns in a comeback effort against the Dolphins.
“We didn’t need to see that. We’ve been working with him now going on a couple of years, and that’s just kind of in his DNA,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said. “That’s one of the reasons why the guys rallied around him and believe in him.”
But even with the lack of “Big Ben,” the Colts are not taking the Steelers lightly, especially with their home crowd backing them.
“I mean we talk a little bit. We talk in general, ‘Hey, this is like Arrowhead – another great place to play, another good football environment, another hostile environment. Hey, we went to Arrowhead and did a nice job.’ So it’s that same mindset. Offensively, Jacoby (Brissett) reminded the guys today that we went to Arrowhead and had like no pre-snap penalties and stuff like that. We’ve got to have that same focus, concentration. So you do make parallels that you can draw from and learn from, yes.”
James Conner is doubtful for the game, so it will test yet another part of the Steelers depth chart.
“We got the depth in the running back room to handle the situation we’re going through,” backup running back Jaylen Samuels said. “I believe in everybody. I believe in this team, the O-line, the coaches. If we all just believe in each other and execute, we’ll be good.”
The Steelers are a 1-point home favorite against the Colts, who are a miserable 1-9 SU and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 road games against Pittsburgh.
