From the episode

I'm probably going to still have him ranked inside my top, maybe 30 to top 30 receivers, somewhere between 24 and 30... I think you can definitely start him as a flex this week. We just have to adjust the expectations like a little bit, maybe.

Harmon ranks Downs top 24-30 but warns to adjust expectations down vs. Steelers.

Matt Harmon ranks Josh Downs inside his top 24-30 receivers despite concerns about the Colts offense and Daniel Jones' play. Harmon notes Downs is not a true number-one receiver in the NFL but is playing that role due to lack of alternatives; he's had 70 yards in back-to-back weeks but underperformed expectations (ranked top 20) against Washington due to game script and quarterback issues. Against Pittsburgh, Harmon suggests adjusting expectations downward while still considering him a viable flex play, though he expresses worry about Daniel Jones' performance and the Steelers' pass rush.
