Week 4: Potential absence of Colts' CB Kenny Moore could greatly benefit Steelers' offense
With only a few more days left until the Pittsburgh Steelers travel to Indianapolis to take on the 1-2 Colts, all eyes are on the injuries for both teams.
While the Steelers have had more than their fair share of heartbreaking injuries, the Colts may have to prepare for a game plan excluding their star cornerback, Kenny Moore, in Week 4.
While the Colts' defense has struggled against the pass, ranking 22nd in passing yards allowed, Moore was one of the few bright spots for the unit. He is one of the best slot corners in the league and plays the run almost as good as he does the pass.
His backup, Chris Lammons, is also injured, further creating a massive advantage for the Steelers if Moore cannot play.
Chris Lammons also missed Colts practice with knee and ankle issues. He's the backup at nickel to Kenny Moore II, who missed with a hip injury.

The Steelers' offensive strategy will more than likely soar on Sunday in Week 4. George Pickens, Calvin Austin, Scotty Miller, and Van Jefferson will surely look to take advantage of the Colts' poor pass defense and the absence of elite playmaking from Kenny Moore.
