Just a day before the Indianapolis Colts jumped out to a 24-7 lead early against the Pittsburgh Steelers, a shadow of doubt rolled into the minds of Colts’ fans when it was announced that the team would be without starting offensive tackles Braden Smith (Covid list) and Anthony Castonzo (knee/ankle) against the top pass-rushing defense in the NFL.
This was a recipe for disaster going into this game as Will Holden and Chaz Green were in line to make their first starts of the season (Holden making his first career NFL start). So today I took on the daunting task of looking at the film on these tackles and seeing how the day went for them against this stout Steelers’ defense.
