Steelers +1.5 (-110) +105

Colts -1.5 (-110) -125

The Steelers are dealing with a quarterback injury that has derailed their offense for the most part.
Pittsburgh is 7-6 on the season so far, but they have the fourth-worst point differential in the AFC at -40.

Saturday’s Steelers vs Colts matchup in the NFL will feature two teams that are not playing the quarterbacks they hoped to be playing when this season started. The Steelers will have Kenny Pickett out due to injury, while Anthony Richardson has missed most of this season for Indianapolis. In this battle of backup signal callers, the Colts should have the advantage with Gardner Minshew under center, and we expect the Colts to win and cover the spread at home.
