INDIANAPOLIS —It's time to take a look at the unofficial snap counts from Sunday's Week 8 Indianapolis Colts-Cincinnati Bengals matchup at Paul Brown Stadium.
The Colts and Bengals had exchanged the lead four times by about midway through the fourth quarter when Cincinnati defensive end Carlos Dunlap tipped, and then intercepted, a Jacoby Brissett pass and returned it 16 yards to the end zone for a touchdown, representing the fifth, and final, lead change in Sunday's game, as the Bengals escaped with a 24-23 victory.
Indianapolis heads back on the road — and back into AFC South Divisional play — this Sunday, when it travels to take on the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium. The Texans fell to 3-4 on the year yesterday with their 41-38 loss to the Seahawks in Seattle.
