When the Pittsburgh Steelers take the field at 4:30 EST at Lucas Oil Stadium on Saturday night, they could be playing for their playoff lives against the fellow playoff hopeful Indianapolis Colts. The Steelers and Colts are two of six teams with a 7-6 record in the AFC with 11 teams currently sitting above .500 in the conference. With a loss dropping either team to 7-7 and only seven playoff spots available, this game is almost a must-win for either team if they want to control their playoff destiny.
That’s the way Steelers CB Patrick Peterson sees this upcoming matchup against the Colts, talking with his cousin and former Steelers CB Bryant McFadden on the All Things Covered podcast to preview the game.
