The Indianapolis Colts entered (and exited) Monday night as the most-sacked team in the NFL, as heading into tonight’s matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers, they allowed their quarterbacks to be brought down a whopping 40 times. With a Steelers defense featuring the likes of outside linebackers Alex Highsmith and T.J. Watt, as well as talented pass-rushing defensive linemen in Larry Ogunjobi and Cameron Heyward, Monday night looked to be an opportunity for the Steelers’ pass rush to feast similar to the way it did in Week 1 against the Cincinnati Bengals when the team racked up seven sacks. It didn’t play out that way though, as the Steelers had just one sack entering the fourth quarter (although they finished with three) in their 24-17 win at Lucas Oil Stadium.
