The Indianapolis Colts recovered from turnovers on their first two drives to take a 21-10 lead over the Washington Redskins at half time in the NFL.
The visitors got an early chance when Colts quarterback Andrew Luck fumbled the ball on the home side's opening drive, but the defense held the Redskins to a Kai Forbath field goal.
Luck continued to struggle early on, throwing an interception on his next drive, but he recovered before the end of the first quarter to find Coby Fleener with a 30-yard pass to the endzone, giving Indianapolis the lead.
Luck's upturn continued as he tossed the ball deep for Dan Herron in the second quarter to extend the hosts' lead, before connecting with TY Hilton for the second game in a row to make it three first-half touchdowns.
The Redskins kept themselves in contention at the break, though, as Roy Helu rushed in just before half time to cut the deficit to 11 points.
