Darren Sproles Bounces Off Colts Defense For Game-Tying Touchdown

Darren Sproles destroys the Colts defense on this touchdown run.

Darren Sproles either eluded or just straight-up ran over about half of the Indianapolis defense on his way to the end zone, and never stopped churning his legs until he got there. The Eagles got very good field position at the Indianapolis 26 after Trent Richardson (who was actually having a decent game!) fumbled and the Eagles recovered.

Here's another great angle of the score:

LeSean McCoy set up the score with a 21-yard run on third-and-15 and followed it up with a nine-yard gain on first down.  Sproles then busted off his 19-yard run on the next play briefly tying the score at 20-20 heading into the fourth quarter. On the next possession, however, Andrew Luck and the Colts responded with a 12-play scoring drive ending with a 7-yard touchdown pass to Ahmad Bradshaw. It started off slow, but this game is just getting good.
