Colts vs Steelers predictions

I'm kind of worried about this game. If all sides continue to play well I still see it being a close one.

It's never easy to go into Pitts and win.

I'll say Colts 30-23.

Yep, I was on the fence about this game. But I have a feeling they won't be able to handle us. We shall see.

Pittsburgh's field seems to be sloppy which could slow our offense down a bit. With Wayne and Richardson slightly banged up, our offense could also sputter this week. Bold prediction - Nicks catches 4 passes for 75+ yards and a score.

Expect our defense to continue to dominate for the most part...as Big Ben tries to extend plays, our pass rush gets to him several times, including one strip-sack. Bell and Brown will each have a couple BIG plays because they are solid, but we will limit them enough to stay ahead. Bold prediction - 5 sacks & 2 INT's.

Only our turnovers will make this game close. If we have a clean game its an easy win.

Plus... I will be at the game. Look for me on TV in my blue Colts gear around the 40 yard line!

Gonna have to be more specific than that. I'm sure you won't be the only blue person around the 40 yard line even if it is a away game

Agreed! For those of us lucky enough to occasionally see the Colts on the road I think they would be surprised at the following the Colts have. No, we aren't the Steelers in terms of a traveling fan base. But we aren't the Jaguars either. We once had a "Go Colts" chant at LP field against the Titans. And Colts fans were overflowing at the 3 games I attended in Jacksonville. We even had a good representation in Green Bay when we were there a few years ago. I can't wait to see how much blue there is in Heinz field.

these are not the Steelers anyone is used to seeing.  they are a 'phony' 4-3 right now.. they are a below average team.  only reason they have a chance Sunday is because they're at home.

 

 

Colts 27

Steelers 17

 

 

 

 

 

edit:  pretty pathetic resume if you ask me.

Nicks and the defense huh?  I like it.  If it plays out like this, it bodes well for the rest of the season.  An engaged Nicks and a dependable defense that can go on the road and dominate away from Lucas Oil will serve notice to the league.

 

Colts 23-21.

Yep, I've felt that the Steelers have been pretty over-rated all year.  Even their win on Monday was pretty marred.  Basically, it was 72 seconds of domination by the Steelers, and over 58 minutes in which Houston was pretty much kicking butt.  Pitt loses that game 95% of the time that the two teams play as they did - this was the one time in twenty that Pitt somehow pulls out a win.  That being said, this is the NFL and Pitt has some talent, so there is easily the potential that they win this game.  I'm not fool enough to believe the Colts win just by showing up...

Our D-Line with the return of Jones will overwhelm the Steelers O-Line. They are #2 in the league this year in sacks allowed, and are on pace to allow 46 sacks this season.

 

Their D isn't the days of old with an elite James Harrison, Lamarr Woodley, Casey Hampton, Aaron Smith, etc...and will struggle to stop our offense.

 

I predict a game very similar to the Ravens-Steelers game, 26-6 or so. Maybe 26-13 given the game is on the road.

Yep. They were lucky to beat Houston.
