Sunday Night Game week 3

This week's Sunday night game is in Indianapolis, with the Colts welcoming the Pittsburgh Steelers. Shaun Suisham opened for Pittsburgh with a 48 yard field goal. The Steelers poured some more on with Ben Roethlisberger and Mike Wallace hooking up for an 81 yard touchdown, and Suisham provided the extra point. Indianapolis found the scoreboard in the second quarter with an Adam Vinatieri field goal from 21 yards away. The Colts tied it as Roethlisberger did his best Tony Romo fumbled the ball away and it was picked up and returned by Jamaal Anderson for 47 yards and a touchdown. Vinatieri made the extra point, and added a late field goal of 25 yards to make it 13-10 Indianapolis at the half. The third quarter was silent, but Pittsburgh got a tying field goal from Suisham, coming from 44 yards away. The Steelers took a 20-13 lead on a Curtis Painter fumble, returned 16 yards by Troy Polamalu for a touchdown, and Suisham added the PAT. The Colts pulled back with a Joseph Addai touchdown run of 6 yards, and they tied it on the Vinatieri extra point. With seconds left on the clock in the fourth, Pittsburgh went up 23-20 on a 38 yard field goal by Suisham, which would be preserved to the end. The Steelers are now 2-1 and the Colts are 0-3.
