The Indianapolis Colts took on the AFC North-leading Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9, and the defense did not fare well. Mistakes are costly, especially when the opposing quarterback is future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers. As fans of the Colts have feared, their defense still looks like a problem.
Things started off well for the Colts' defense. Pittsburgh won the opening toss and chose to take the ball first in an attempt to make a statement. Indy stood strong, forcing a three-and-out, giving the ball to the high-powered Colts offense. A Daniel Jones rushing touchdown put Indianapolis on top early by a score of 7-0.
