Colts struggle defensively against Rodgers, fall to Steelers 34-22
Summary

The Indianapolis Colts lost 34-22 to the Pittsburgh Steelers on October 11, dropping their season record to 2-3. Despite a solid performance from quarterback Daniel Jones, who went 24-for-44 for 267 yards, the Colts defense could not contain Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers offense. Indianapolis was largely ineffective in the run game, with Jonathan Taylor rushing for just 45 yards on 15 carries. The Colts’ inability to apply pressure and missed tackles hampered their defensive efforts, leading to a disappointing outcome in Pittsburgh.
