Sights & Sounds: Week 9 Win vs. Indianapolis Colts | Pittsburgh Steelers

Mark Twain once said, “History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.” On a day where the Steelers were celebrating their 2005 World Championship team, it would be fitting that their opponent would be Indianapolis. It was 20 years ago when the Steelers upset the number one seated Colts on their improbable run to their fifth Super Bowl title. Do it. Hey man, we talked a lot. Okay, we’ve talked a lot amongst ourselves. Ain’t a lot to say. All I’m going to tell you is check your 40ing out there. Check that sunlight. Okay, if you need out black, get it. Enough said, man. It’s time to ball. The Colts come into this game 7 and one, the best record in football. And the Steelers were looking to get back into the win column in front of the home crowd. Let’s feast the family today. We ain’t playing down to their standard. We ain’t playing down to what the they doing. We got to go out there and be the best group today. The best most dominant D line on this field today. Let’s go out there and get a D. Family on three. 1 2 3. Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has found success with his new squad and that was on display early. Steelers showing a fiveman front here to begin against Daniel Jones who gets a snap, throws out left and it’s a quick completion and it’s Alec Pierce who’s out close to the first down marker at the 31 yd line. Looks like he’s got enough. And this is what they’re going to have to do today. You must pick one phase to eliminate and I’d rather eliminate the rush and force the ball into Daniel Jones’s hands. On a third and 11, looking for an early stop. Shotgun snap. Back goes Jones. Blitz coming. He has time. throws out to the left. Beautiful throw complete on a long out pattern to Pierce. Expect Jonathan Taylor up the gut here. And it’s going to be a quarterback sneak instead. And Jones easily hammers it into the end zone. The defense needed a spark to slow down the league’s hottest offense. Jones in the shotgun. Playa action pass looking. Here comes TJ Watt from the back end. Knocks away the ball. TJ Watt’s got it. He’s picked it up. Watt the strip sack. And TJ Watt makes a play. The Steelers desperately needed to turn it over. And the Steelers will have the ball close to midfield here. Strip, sack, fumble, fumble recovery. A triple statter on one play. 90. [Applause] Aaron Rogers and the Steelers offense took advantage of the short field. Man-to-man look across the defensive front here by the Colts and they’re going to bring six. Rogers back to pass. Looking pumps has a man over the middle of the field that is complete to Austin. Austin sprawling forward and he’s going to pick up the first down as Rogers gets the snap. Cold Spring four fired over the middle of the field. It’s Calvin Austin and Austin spins inside the five and down to the two yd line right up the center of the field and a first and goal for the Steelers. He saw the zone coverage, cuts to the inside. Great job to get north and south and get extra yardage. Off the left side, lowers the shoulder and he is in for the Pittsburgh Steelers touchdown. On the next drive, the Steelers took the ball away again. Jones in the shotgun. He has Taylor to his right. Motion man is Warren right to left across the formation. Jones back to pass looking.

And Prior move in short motion seam route up the middle. Aaron Rogers spots that they’re right in the no man’s land of the zone in the cover too. And he just throws an absolute cold rope to Pat Fry move. And actually the momentum of that football actually carried him into the end zone. There you go. mustache. It’s the mustache. It’s the mustache. The defense continued to make plays, holding the Colts scoreless in the second quarter. But now third and three and the crowd up and the towels waving, clock stop at the 336 mark.

Prevent type of defense being played here in a quick pass to Austin. Austin starts to left moving toward the right sideline gets out of bounds and is banged out of bounds and only 3 seconds remain in the first half. So here comes Chris Boswell in the field goal unit. Chris Boswell will come on to try to extend this to a two-score lead for the Steelers. Here’s a snap. Here’s a hold. Here’s the kick. That kick is up. That kick is good.
