PITTSBURGH – Perhaps it’s fitting Sunday’s bizarre game at Heinz Field ended with Adam Vinatieri attempting a kick into the NFL’s version of the Bermuda Triangle.
The Indianapolis Colts veteran’s 43-yard try went very wide to the left, and the Pittsburgh Steelers escaped with a 26-24 victory that went a long way toward confirming the curse that seems to hover over this franchise whenever it visits the Steel City.
The Colts are 2-16 all time in Pittsburgh, and they’ve won just once in the city since Earl Morrall led the Baltimore version of the franchise to victory in 1968.
