The decision to promote Donald Brown to the featured back spot ahead of Trent Richardson seemed to have backfired for the Colts through most of their game Sunday against Tennessee. But it certainly paid off in the end.
Brown had just 8 yards on eight carries well into the second half, but exploded in the game-clinching touchdown drive late in the fourth quarter. He carried the ball six times for 46 yards and scored from 4 yards out to give his team a 22-14 lead. He finished with 54 yards on 14 attempts and two catches for 10 yards. His first half was a disaster with seven rushes for five yards.
He will try to get off to a better start next Sunday in Cincinnati.
