Mike Tomlin had not taken the preseason too seriously in recent years. That has apparently changed this season as his Steelers have won the first two games, including a come-from-behind 17-13 victory over the Falcons on Sunday night. Rookie running back James Connor made his debut and rushed for 98 yards on 20 carries and Bart Houston threw a go-ahead six-yard touchdown pass to Justin Hunter in the fourth quarter. Houston was five of nine for 24 yards while Josh Dobbs went 10-of-19 for 70 yards and each had a pass picked off. Indianapolis is a notoriously bad preseason team even going back to the Tony Dungy days. Chuck Pagano has kept the tradition with his 7-15 straight-up and 9-12-1 ATS record. The Colts have lost their first two games this year, including 24-19 to the Cowboys last week when Indy couldn't even manage a first down in the first quarter. The Colts were outyarded 476-265 and, of course, Andrew Luck is out until at least the start of the regular season. Scott Tolzien finished 10-of-14 for 70 yards and Phillip Walker went five of eight for 33 yards while Stephen Morris was 11-of-15 for 111 yards for the Colts. Pittsburgh has gone UNDER both its games, bringing Tomlin's preseason record to 27-16-1 UNDER and Pagano is 12-10 UNDER. The Steelers have stayed UNDER their last five preseason games in a row. Take the Steelers and the UNDER.
