The Pittsburgh Steelers were embarrassed yesterday by the Indianapolis Colts. It’s a sight that is becoming all too frequent lately, their fifth multi-score loss of the season, this time by a margin of 30-13. And oddly, the most embarrassing drive may have been one that ended in just three points.
Already leading 24-13, the Colts ground out a 15-play, 70-yard possession spanning nine minutes of game time, one that consisted nearly entirely of runs. More specifically, 13 consecutive runs by backup running backs Trey Sermon and Tyler Goodson, the latter receiving his first NFL carries as an undrafted first-year player out of Iowa.
