Just when it looked like the Pittsburgh Steelers were going to be in for a rough Week 9, head coach Mike Tomlin’s team showed up in a major way, forcing six turnovers while winning a wild game over the NFL’s best in the Indianapolis Colts and moving to 5-3 on the season.
It was a much-needed win, too, as Lamar Jackson returned in Week 9 on Thursday Night Football for the Baltimore Ravens and led them to a blowout win over the Miami Dolphins, kick starting their AFC North comeback attempt. While the Steelers were finishing up a big win over the Colts, the Cincinnati Bengals were attempting to manufacture a wild comeback over the Chicago Bears, trialing at one point in the fourth quarter 41-27 before roaring back to take a 42-41 lead.
