Staff Picks:

This is a game black-and-gold fans could be watching closely, and that’s based on both playoff hopes and the draft order. The Steelers could get some help in the playoff push if the Colts, with Nick Foles at quarterback, could find a way to win. Likewise, if the Colts were to win, it would move them up in the 2023 NFL Draft order. So, tonight the Steelers fan base is going to be wearing white and blue and pulling for the Colts to find a way to win. As always, some football is better than no football, so follow along with other Pittsburgh Steelers fans in the comment section below as the open thread.

In the meantime, be sure to stay tuned to BTSC for the latest news and notes surrounding the black and gold. And continue counting down the days until the Steelers play the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17 of the regular season.
