INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The Colts’ two-game winning streak was snapped on Sunday, as they lost on the road to the Steelers, 34-22.
WISH-TV and WRTV Colts Insider Kevin Bowen shared what stood out to him in the loss.
“Settling for way too many field goals,” Bowen said. “They moved the ball really, really well, but way too many field goals. Then conversely, Pittsburgh moved it about the same way the Colts did, but they ended those drives with touchdowns. Really defensively, that’s been the biggest culprit through these first five games. You think about it, Aaron Rodgers has not looked like that in a Pittsburgh uniform. He looked like Green Bay Aaron Rodgers with how well he played yesterday.”
Bowen has covered the Colts for 16 years and is a radio host for 107.5 The Fan, hosting “The Fan Morning Show.”
The Colts kicked five field goals and scored just one touchdown against the Steelers.
The Colts will have the opportunity to bounce back and return to .500 on Sunday when they host the winless Tennessee Titans. Bowen thinks that is a game that the Colts can use to get back on track.
“They should win by a lot,” Bowen said. “I’ll focus on the pass rush. You need to create more turnovers. This team is dead last in the NFL in turnovers forced, particularly with those defensive ends. I think that is going to be a big key. Then, I want to see Daniel Jones lead this team to a victory.”
The Colts are scheduled to kick off against the Titans at 1 p.m. on Sunday.
