The steel curtain has shown us what they can do against a run-first Redskins offense. Their blitz packages were extraordinary in yesterday's game. But they still allowed as many sacks as they obtained before then. Will we see the Steelers of yesterday, or the discombobulated offensive line? If Big Ben is play, expect to see no huddle offenses from both sides. I'm leaning on the over if it is 40 or less.

I think a LOCK is the only way to describe this game.  I think Peyton finally gets on track against the steelers weak and banged up secondary.  Take the Colts on this one.

would Peyton suddenly get back on track against one of the strongest defenses in the league??  The Steelers secondary is no more banged up than most of the league at this point. McFadden is the only DB out.  35 points?? This game will be more like 24-21 either way.  No play for me...Big Ben or not this one will be a good game.

Is that Byron's younger brother? No he won't be playing.

wow, even if INDY was right this year, you are trippin if you think they can put up 35 on the road, let alone in pitt.  I'm not committed to anything until i see the spread, but pitt should put the beatdown on indy as they've always had their number and the difference in this two teams is more vast than it has been in years... play action all you want peyton, the steelers know you can't run on them.

5-0 in the AFC...
 
3rd best rush defense in the league... the colts offense is not at its best by far, and they have nothing close to a good running game
 
...Against the number one D? Indy wont be spending too much time in the red zone on sunday

Colts have not won in Pittsburgh since the LBJ administration. Pittsburgh has won 12 straight home games against Indianapolis/Baltimore. The Colts’ last win in Pittsburgh came on Sept. 29, 1968 (41-7). This trend does not bode well for colts backers and I dont see the streak ending. I think Pittsburgh will roll here in convincing fashion. Pitt D is hitting their stride and I envision we will see another 4+ sack effort by Woodley and co. Pittsburgh is just more physical on both sides of the ball and will wear down the colts. Pitt wins this contest by at least a td or more. glta

agree, that's why im taking Pittsburgh, this is must win for both teams. COLTS is my team, but you know, nothing personal just business.

I wonder why the line is currently off? The line is -3. My pick is Steelers!

Willie Parker and Heath Miller are listed as Out.  Ben and Woodley are gametime decisions.  They're still weighing this line out.  It's not too often that you'll see a game without an opening line come Friday afternoon.

  This guy has some good picks this week.  This is another game for bookies to set bettors up.  I think those picks are winners and you will go 2-0 on them.  I'm debating on a ml on Indy
