SNF Betting Preview: Colts at Steelers

No Andrew Luck? No problem. The Indianapolis Colts picked up yet another victory in Week 12 with injured quarterback Andrew Luck sidelined due to injury and improved to 4-0 with 40-year-old signal caller Matt Hasselback under center. Only one other quarterback has ever collected four straight wins in his 40s – the old gunslinger Brett Favre. Hasselback will be seeking to make it 5-0 when he and the Colts invade Heinz Stadium in Sunday Night Football to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers.
