Colts wide receiver Pierre Garcon is having a big night on the big Monday Night Football stage. His third-quarter score on gave Indy a 17-10 lead vs. the Bucs.
Garcon has just two catches on the night, but each has been HUGE. This touchdown went 59 yards on the first play of the drive. In the second quarter, Garcon took a pass from Curtis Painter 87 yards for a touchdown. That play was the longest regular season touchdown pass in Colts franchise history.
The two electric plays have helped lift the Colts, who are starting Painter for the first time in his career. The Purdue product has thrown for 214 yards so far, 146 of which have come on those two aforementioned connections with Garcon.
