Bill Cowher called an onside kick to start the half. The Colts recovered on the Steelers’ 37. Then they scored a touchdown.

Nice one, Bill. Did Matt Millen call that one in for you during halftime?

Early in the 3rd, the Colts are up, 23-7.

I was pretty surprised at that call too. Cower didn’t stay patient, which is uncharacteristic.

That’s one of those high-risk-high-reward plays. If it had worked people would have said “Wow, that was risky but man did it ever paid off.” The problem is that I think the risk is a lot higher than the reward most of the time
