Steelers take advantage of another Colts' second-half collapse

INDIANAPOLIS — It's all been written before.

A critical turnover. Some untimely penalties. Big plays from a suddenly awakened opposing offense. And a dormant finish by the Colts' own offensive attack.

It all added up to another second-half collapse Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium and a 20-17 victory for the AFC-leading Steelers.
