After receiving the safety punt, the Colts looked like they were ready to score again as they quickly moved 33 yards before an Andrew Luck pass got away from fullback Stanley Havili and was picked of by Dont’a Hightower for the Pats’ second takeaway of the half.

The Colts defense stood strong, however, forcing a three-and-out to end the half and go into the locker room only down by nine.
