The Indianapolis Colts are gearing up for a tough matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, with linebacker T.J. Watt posing a significant challenge. Colts coach Shane Steichen acknowledges the need for a specific game plan to counter Watt's talent.
Quarterback Anthony Richardson emphasizes Watt's high effort and strength, indicating that the Colts need to keep him contained, similar to facing Aaron Donald last year. Running back Jonathan Taylor's impressive performance is key as the Colts aim to find balance against a strong Steelers defense.
Conversely, Steelers' coach Mike Tomlin notes that the Colts present a diverse offense, and stopping Taylor will be critical, especially with outside linebacker Alex Highsmith sidelined. However, the Steelers are known for their solid defense led by Watt, allowing the fewest total yards and points in the league.
Colts cornerback Jaylon Jones recently earned recognition for his outstanding performance, highlighting the competitive spirit expected to play out in this high-stakes game.
