Writers explanations

“The Steelers face a 5-2 Colts team this week on their own turf. While they would appear to be underdogs in this contest, Pittsburgh is hot right now, and Indianapolis has had a weak schedule so far. The Steelers have kicked things up a notch on defense, and now the offense might be ready to get the ball rolling as well. I have Pittsburgh winning a close matchup and bringing their record to 4-4 on the season.”- Tommy Jaggi

“The Colts are without Andrew Luck but are still 5-2. Pittsburgh’s offense still hasn’t found a consistent groove, and the defense can only do so much. Steelers lose a close one.”-Brandon Kring

“It’ll be a cold day—Pittsburgh football weather. The Colts are cursed when they come to Pittsburgh. Only one Indianapolis won in Pittsburgh all the time. History will push the Steelers to 4-4.” Jobe Morrison

“The Steelers receivers and Rudolf continue to improve while TJ Watt continues to be TJ Watt…that latter leading to a game-winning score via a strip-sack or pressure-caused interception.”- James Perry Kelly

“The Steelers will host the Colts having beaten Jacoby Brissett before. They have not beaten a team with a winning record this year, so I see Pittsburgh falling short to the Colts by a touchdown.”- Ed Hunt 

“This is 100% a winnable game for the Steelers, but I think the Colts defense and offensive line will be able to win their matchups. If Pittsburgh can do what they did after the first quarter of the Dolphins game, then expect different results.”- Ryan Pawloski

“The Steelers keep the victory train rolling with another close win, this time against the Colts.   The defense has trouble containing Brissett, but find a way to close it at the end of the game.”- Eric Hassel
