5 takeaways from Colts’ 24-17 loss to the Steelers

The Indianapolis Colts once again find themselves exiting a game that came down to the fourth quarter and just like for most of the season, they failed to find a way to leave the game with a victory.

The Pittsburgh Steelers looked like they were in control in the first half after having the 16-3 lead entering halftime. The Colts flipped a switch in the third quarter to storm back to take the 17-16 lead heading into the final quarter.

But, both sides of the ball ended up not carrying all the momentum they built up through the end. The defense gave up the go-ahead touchdown drive to kick off the fourth quarter and the offense couldn’t muster up anything in their comeback attempt.

This was just another story for Indianapolis where they got off to a slow start on offense and shot themselves in the foot anytime they had something positive going for them.
