The NFL Week 12 edition of Monday Night Football isn't exactly a glorious and exciting matchup, but at least it gives us something to bet on.

Two teams who are well on the outside looking in when it comes to the postseason will face-off when the Pittsburgh Steelers hit the road to take on the Indianapolis Colts.

Jeff Saturday is 1-1 through his first two games as the Colts interim head coach. How will he fare against the Steelers legendary coach, Mike Tomlin?

Let's dive into the odds for the game.

Steelers vs. Colts Prediction and Pick

The coaching mismatch in this game can't be overlooked. Jeff Saturday will be coaching for just his third time ever at any level, and now he has to go up against a top three coach in the NFL in Mike Tomlin.

Not only will the Steelers have the coaching advantage, but their offense has been turning a corner in recent weeks. They gained 5.2 yards per play last week against the Bengals, despite the loss, and Kenny Pickett seems to be improving in his rookie season.

Also, they have TJ Watt back in the lineup which COMPLETELY changes this Steelers pass rush. Especially now that they get to face an Indianapolis offensive line that ranks 27th in QB sacked percentage, giving up a sack on 8.91% of drop backs, paired with the most immobile quarterback in the NFL right now in Matt Ryan.

I think Pittsburgh can win this game outright on Monday night.
