Colts make big mistake, Pittsburgh Steelers get extra motivation


Colts make big mistake, Pittsburgh Steelers get extra motivation

PITTSBURGH – The Pittsburgh Steelers are waiting for kickoff and trying to start the season 4-0. And before they even get to Indianapolis, the Colts are adding bulletin board material to Pittsburgh's arsenal.

The Steelers fan base is known for many things, but traveling with the team and bringing their Terrible Towels are at the top of the list. In Indianapolis, that remains the plan, and Pittsburgh fans are expected to make the six-hour journey and sprinkle some black and gold into the sea of ​​blue at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Colts linebacker Zaire Franklin throws some early shots to those who arrive.

“Hopefully we can steal some terrible towels,” Franklin told WTHR. “Maybe I’ll try to grab one myself. We’ll see.”

It's as if no one is paying attention to the story of the terrible towel's disregard. The Jacksonville Jaguars are still recovering, and they're just the latest casualty in a long line of teams that were never the same again after an attack on the team flag.

And if you had to guess, TJ Watt, Cam Heyward and the rest of the Steelers locker room are taking Franklin's words personally this week.

Meanwhile, the Steelers are dealing with a number of injuries heading into the weekend and have officially lost one of their key offensive players. How do they replace him? We have an idea.

All Steelers Talk looks at the injury report, thoughts on the running back situation, Franklin's words and our Week 4 predictions.
