Or are they simply experimenting with safety blitzes and somebody else will have a couple of cracks at the QB next week?

He could have easily missed the QB on those two blitzes...plus he really had to work to get down that lineman the Colts had playing at QB. So possibly, but in the end Horton had to make those plays, and he had an impact in both (a sack, and a QB hurry)
