Colts at Steelers Week 16 prop bet predictions
Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 10:50 a.m. ET.
Colts RB Jonathan Taylor under 75.5 total yards (-105)
After a slow start to the year, Taylor has really picked up the pace over the last month. In his last four games, he has totaled 509 yards on 84 touches. However, he will face one of the league’s best run defenses Sunday. Look for this to be a Nyheim Hines game and for Taylor to see only limited opportunities in this contest. Back the UNDER.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger under 274.5 passing yards (-110)
The last two weeks have not been kind for Roethlisberger. Despite throwing 75 passes, he has accumulated just 357 passing yards as he’s averaging only 4.76 yards per attempt. Against one of the league’s top pass defenses, he could struggle again. Expect him to be better than what he was in Week 15, but for him to go UNDER 274.5 passing yards in Week 16.
Steelers WR Diontae Johnson over 63.5 receiving yards (-105)
Every week, Johnson finds a way to get the lion’s share of the work in the passing game. Over the last seven weeks, he has seen 82 targets and totaled 520 receiving yards. Look for him to see double-digit targets in this game and exceed 63.5 yards despite playing against one of the league’s best pass defenses. Take the OVER.

Colts QB Philip Rivers over 0.5 interceptions (-135)
Rivers will be without both of his starting offensive tackles in this game, and that could spell problems for the veteran quarterback. Pittsburgh always finds ways to create turnovers, and Rivers will throw a few interceptable passes each week. While the odds aren’t fantastic, take the OVER 0.5 interceptions at -135 for Rivers.
Steelers WR Chase Claypool to score multiple touchdowns (+900)
Remember earlier in the season when Claypool was a lock to score nearly every week? Well, he hasn’t scored a touchdown in four-straight weeks, but this could be the game for him. Pittsburgh might need to use his size in the red zone, and Indianapolis doesn’t have a defensive back that can match up with his size and athleticism. Don’t be surprised if he gets a few red zone looks and carries in this game. Back 2 OR MORE TOUCHDOWNS.
