Emergence of Green has Steelers excited

What caught our eye during the Indianapolis Colts’ 28-7 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers Thursday night at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Roethlisberger would extend the lead back to 14 points, leading the Steelers 75 yards, capped off with a 33-yard touchdown pass to Brown.

“He’s an all-around weapon”, running back Le’Veon Bell said after rushing for 120 yards.

Coates has just one reception – for four yards – in limited playing time since the injury and quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is 0-for-13 when targeting his speedy deep threat. “I haven’t seen him ever dragging around after a big game, which is what he had”.

“I knew they were going to throw”, Slay said.

Prescott accounted for two touchdowns, Elliott ran for a pair of scores and the Cowboys extended their franchise regular-season record with a 10th straight victory, beating the Redskins 31-26 on Thursday. This was Davis’s first game as a starter, but it was apparent from the outset that Davis complements safety Mike Mitchell well. We’ve gotten into rhythms into the second and third quarters and we’ve been finishing games off, but we’ve got to do a better job to help our defense starting out the game. Twice the Colts chose to go for it on 4th and goal from the one yard line, and twice the Steelers defense came up big.

How so? By forcing Tolzien-who unfortunately only resembles Brady when it comes to footspeed-to lumber on a play-action roll-out on 3rd-and-goal from the 1-yard line (it didn’t end well) before emptying the backfield with Tolzien in shotgun on the fourth-down play that screamed “We’re going to throw the ball!”

“You can rub dirt on a lot of things, but you can’t rub dirt on the brain so you have to be smart with that”, said Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. The way the Steelers secondary was play, Luck would have eviscerated their defense. The Eagles have lost five of their last seven. They gave me time in the pass game.

He’s topped 100 yards just four times in 2016, but Thursday was a reminder that the Steelers can still score points in a hurry and Brown can be an absolute nightmare to handle. And yet, it’s at times hard to look at the Steelers and see a true Super Bowl contender.

In Roethlisberger’s ten games this year, the signal caller has thrown for 2,745 yards, twenty-three touchdowns, and seven interceptions.

“This is a humbling league and God, when you’re that close, we’ve got to put them in”, Tolzien said. They will hope that Luck, as well as wide receiver T.Y Hilton who left this game with a back injury, will return to their ranks soon enough.

Both of Tolzien’s interceptions came after that point.

“It was a good hit”, Hilton said. They also moved into sole possession of first place in the AFC North, ½ games ahead of the Baltimore Ravens (5-5), who host the third-place Cincinnati Bengals (3-6-1) on Sunday. “They know what happened last time“.

The pile of bodies just kept growing in the fourth quarter as Robert Mathis left with an injured left elbow.

Mike Mitchell can be polarizing figure for the Steelers fan base.

Offensive coordinator Todd Haley hinted Green would be a “full go” against the Colts, although that wasn’t entirely accurate.

In addition to Luck and Geathers, the Colts’ inactives were Clark and Blythe, defensive lineman Zach Kerr and linebackers Deon King and Curt Maggitt. Or even contained to the wide receiving corps.
