Colts-Steelers live scores today: Indianapolis 14, Pittsburgh 0

The Indianapolis Colts host the Pittsburgh Steelers today in NFL Week 4. Expect very different attack approaches.

Anthony Richardson leads a Colts (1-2) offense that makes big swings but sometimes misses big. Richardson has completed less than half of his passes but has a league-leading five connections of at least 40 yards. He threw 3 touchdowns and ran for another, but he threw a league-best 6 interceptions. The Colts have only 2 drives lasting at least 5 minutes and are the last to have possession per game. The defense is also thin due to injuries.

Justin Fields leads an old-fashioned attack for the Steelers (3-0). Pittsburgh had 8 drives that lasted more than 5 minutes, but there were only 3 touchdowns. Chris Boswell has 10 field goals, the most in the league. Pittsburgh's defense was particularly stout, allowing just 8.7 points and 229.7 yards per game. TJ Watt (3 sacks) is always a pass threat.

Richardson runs 16 yards but fumbles after a shot. Colts center Tanor Bortolini recovers the fumble, but Richardson leaves the play holding his right hip. He returns after two plays, runs the ball on his first snap and takes it another Hit, this time helmet to helmet after a 1-yard gain. Richardson now goes to the locker room.

The Colts consider him questionable due to a hip injury.

Colts pass rusher Isaiah Land was called out for batting the pass from Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Justin Fields, which would have amounted to a drive-ending sack in the first quarter.

CBS referee analyst Gene Staratore didn't like the call.
