From the episode
I think he's B tier still... I think that we're going to find like a middle ground... I have a more aggressive ranking than consensus by quite a big margin here.
STACKED’s take
Downs is B-tier with aggressive ranking; Steichen should make him focal point despite Taylor.
Downs is B-tier and the source has a more aggressive ranking than consensus by quite a margin. Last week stunk, but the source expects a middle ground between expectations and reality. The Colts desperately need Downs to be a focal point, and the source trusts Shane Steichen to figure it out. Downside is if Jonathan Taylor rolls, the Colts will ride him and Downs won't have big explosives. Daniel Jones' passing chart shows everything consolidated underneath, which is where Downs gets the rock. However, Jones completed just 4 of 12 passes for 40 yards with an interception and fumble against pressure last week, and fumbling has been a constant issue. Steelers secondary has injuries: Jamil Dean (ankle), Jalen Ramsey (wrist), Sean Elliott (safety).
