The Indianapolis Colts will go on the road to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday in one of three late afternoon starts in the NFL in Week 8.

Today's game takes place from Heinz Field in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and will start at 4.25 p.m. EST. The game will be broadcast on the CBS network but will also be available to watch online through live stream - free for subscribers to Direct TV's NFL Sunday Ticket - via the link provided below.

The Colts come into today's game on 5-2 and are in the best form we have seen of them for a number of years now. They have taken control of the AFC South, but today's challenge against the 4-3 Pittsburgh Steelers will be no walk over by any means.

The Colts got off to a 0-2 season, but have since pulled off five straight wins to move to 5-2, and if they can maintain this push even longer they will cement themselves as almost dead-cert postseason contenders.

Last week that shut out the Cincinnati Bengals completely in a brutal 27-0 victory.

Quarterback Andrew Luck as been in immense form, even better than many had expected for this season. Although he has not been the biggest surprise for the Colts by any means, as it is the defense of the Colts that has shocked many pundits; they have emerged as a solid and at times unbeatable unit.

Despite Robert Mathis being missing, defensive coordinator Greg Manusky has led his team to become one of the best defenses in the league in recent weeks.

Greg Toler has spoken to the Indianapolis Star of Manusky, saying: "We trust him to put us in the best position to make plays and win. And right now it's just clicking from top to bottom."

Today's game will start at 4.25 p.m. EST and can be watched online by clicking here.
