I imagine that the 12,000 STEELERS FANS that buy up the fair weather Colts fans tickets will remain nice and quiet when the Steelers have the ball. Collins might want to work on his Silent Count this week.

HERE WE GO STEELERS HERE WE GO!!!

HERE WE GO STEELERS HERE WE GO!!!

I say go no-huddle from the first snap and see if the fake injury threat works.
