The Pittsburgh Steelers got back into the win column Monday night after beating the Indianapolis Colts 24-17. While neither QB was really impressive in terms of posting prolific passing numbers in this game, Pittsburgh beat the Colts on the ground, totaling 172 rushing yards on the night compared to Indy’s 110 yards on the ground. The defense mitigated RB Jonathan Taylor’s impact in this one, keeping him from ripping off the big run and held him to 86 yards on 20 carries.
In fact, Taylor was in-position to score his second rushing TD of the game, but dropped the handoff from QB Matt Ryan, resulting in a fumble that ended up getting recovered by DL Chris Wormley that gave possession to Pittsburgh and kept the Colts from getting into the end zone.
