The Sunday afternoon slate for Week 9 is headlined by two big AFC matchups with playoff implications. In the early afternoon window, it's two first-place teams facing off when the Indianapolis Colts (7-1) head to Pittsburgh (4-3) for a showdown with the Steelers.

The Green Bay Packers dominated the Pittsburgh Steelers 35-25 on “Sunday Night Football” at Acrisure Stadium. Down by nine points at the half, the Packers rallied with a sensational second-half performance, outscoring the Steelers 28-9.

But while the 7-1 Colts are riding a four-game winning streak, the 4-3 Steelers are coming off two straight losses. Pass defense has been a major issue for the Steelers as of late; Joe Flacco and Jordan Love threw for a combined 702 yards and six touchdowns against them during their last two games.

The Steelers revived their flagging defense on Sunday, halting a red-hot Colts offense and coming away with six takeaways in a 27-20 win.
