The Pittsburgh Steelers, who got off to a blistering 4-1 start, will now hope to avoid being 4-4 as they host the Indianapolis Colts at Acrisure Stadium. The Colts’ offense has performed at a historic level, leading the NFL in total yards per game (385.3) and points per game (33.8).

On the other hand, the Aaron Rodgers-led Steelers have been serviceable on the attack, but this time around, the onus will be on Mike Tomlin‘s defence to ensure Pittsburgh isn’t blown away at home.

But before this thrilling clash, the NFL has appointed a special performer for the pregame festivities.
