Don’t look now, but the Week 9 matchup in the Steel City could be one that we see as an AFC Championship Game! Ok, we won’t go too crazy, but the Indianapolis Colts have been the surprise store of the NFL and the Pittsburgh Steelers are in a strange AFC North. As for this weekend, we’ve got our best Colts vs. Steelers predictions for Sunday to provide.

On top of that will be an extremely generous $2,000 Fanatics Sportsbook sign-up bonus that lasts over a week, so you’ll be able to enjoy it for more than just Colts vs. Steelers picks!

Colts vs. Steelers Predictions for NFL Week 9, Sunday 11/2

Jonathan Taylor and the Steelers defense. Need we say more? Just about any Colts vs. Steelers predictions could be summed up as that easily, as it’s as ideal of a matchup as it gets for the Indy superstar RB. Who knows, perhaps we’ll finally see an RB steal the MVP from a QB for the first time since 2012.

Before we get too ahead of ourselves, what about Colts vs. Steelers picks for this Sunday? Well, Indy just scored 30+ points for the fourth straight game and they’ve scored 2+ points in every single game this year but one! Meanwhile, the Steelers just lost at home on Sunday Night Football by allowing 35 points.

Therefore, it comes as no surprise to us that the Colts vs. Steelers odds clearly favor Indy, even on the road. After all, Jonathan Taylor just scored THREE touchdowns for the third time in four games! Of course, we’re not going to suggest that simply picking him to find the endzone again provides a ton of value given the price.

Not to worry - we’ve still found a market that does provide value for the best bet from our Colts vs. Steelers predictions.
 

 

 

Colts vs. Steelers Best Bet: Aaron Rodgers To Throw an Interception (+100 at Fanatics)

When it comes to value, Aaron Rodgers to throw a pick nearly always provides even better plus-money odds than the above, as his efficiency for over two decades is arguably the #1 reason for him being a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer. That said, his TD-INT ratios haven’t been nearly as historic since he left the Green Bay Packers.

In fact, let’s start with his tenure there. In each of his last three games against the Colts with the Packers, Aaron Rodgers threw an interception. That was long before the iteration of Indy, which now has the second-most INTs in the NFL this year with 10. Rodgers also has five picks through seven games this year, so again, the historic efficiency isn’t in full effect.

Furthermore, the backend of the Colts' defense is something we trust for our Colts vs. Steelers picks. Not only are they nearly leading the league in INTs, but they’re doing so while the Indy defensive line ranks 28th out of 32 teams in terms of pass rush win rate. They may be 7-1, but they aren’t perfect everywhere.

After keeping a rather rare clean sheet on SNF, we’ve got Aaron Rodgers to throw an interception (+100 at Fanatics) as the best bet from our Colts vs. Steelers predictions.
