The Pittsburgh Steelers have a lot of hype going into the season, and we’re just weeks away from finding out if it’s deserved. Here’s how to watch on Saturday.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have their own destiny in their hands throughout the 2017 season, as the AFC North crown is theirs to lose. Now, they’re entering a key piece of the preseason, with some serious talent to evaluate before they establish a roster for a potential postseason run.
The Steelers are undefeated through the preseason so far, with a 2-0 record through the first few weeks of August. They’ve proven that their backups are capable and talented, and still have Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown and a potential return of Le’Veon Bell to work with when the regular season gets going.
Another big AFC contender is the Indianapolis Colts, who are looking to bounce back after falling short in 2016 in the AFC South, with the Houston Texans taking the divisional crown last year. There has been a bunch of discussion around whether or not Andrew Luck is the answer in Indy, and he’s out to prove why he needs to stay in 2017.
The game won’t be shown on national television, despite the big name teams appearing in Pittsburgh on Saturday night, but there’s other ways to check out the action if you’re interested and out of the two team’s markets. If you subscribe to NFL Game Pass, you can watch the game both live and on replay on any of your mobile devices or computers to get your Steelers or Colts fixes.
