As we’ve been doing for several years now, we’ll break down the Pittsburgh Steelers’ opponent each week, telling you what to expect from a scheme and individual standpoint. This year, Jonathan Heitritter and I will cover the opposing team’s defense. I will focus on the scheme, Jonathan on the players.
Today, scouting the Indianapolis Colts’ defense.
ALEX’S SCHEME REPORT
Colts’ Run Defense
A middling, to below, run defense, the Colts are allowing 4.2 yards per carry. That’s tied for 15th in football. Opposing offenses are putting the ball in the end zone quite a bit, their 19 scores tied for 30th across the league this year.
