Frank Reich’s Indianapolis Colts pulled off a major upset on Sunday as they made their way to a narrow 34-31 OT win over Green Bay Packers. The visitors looked in control of the game, thanks to some impressive link-ups between Aaron Rodgers and wideouts, Davante Adams and Marquez Valdes-Scantling.
But a fumble in OT from Valdes-Scantling after a tackle from Julian Blackmon changed the tide of the tie. Colts kicker Rodrigo Blankenship’s 39-yard field goal sealed the win for the home side and condemned the visitors to their 3rd defeat of the season.
