Indy Comeback

Colts brilliantly go for it and execute on three key fourth downs. Meanwhile the Texans inexplicably drop back to pass, when they should have been killing clock, resulting in a critical turnover.

In other great Indy comebacks, my wife returned from a long weekend hanging out with her sister. For which her daughter and I are extremely grateful! :)

Following are some of the key moments from the football game if anyone cares...

1st Quarter:

• 4-1-HOU 41 (12:19) 29-J.Addai right end to HOU 35 for 6 yards (56-M.Greenwood).
