| Toronto, ON (MySportsbook) - For nearly a decade, it seemed the AFC South was amongst the most predictable divisions at the onset of a new NFL season, as the Indianapolis Colts have finished at the top in seven of the last eight years. It had become commonplace for insiders to anoint the Colts as the division front-runners. With the same regularity, many have made claims in recent years that one team was the likely candidate to finally topple Peyton Manning and company - the Houston Texans. Following Gary Kubi |

| Indianapolis, IN (MySportsbook) - The Indianapolis Colts can breathe a sigh of relief, as four-time MVP quarterback Peyton Manning was activated off the physically unable to perform list on Monday. Manning has been recovering from surgery to correct a disk-related issue in his neck on May 23, and the organization recently sounded uncertain if he would be ready for Week 1. That uneasy feeling that Colts fans had didn't get any better when the team signed recently-retired quarterback Kerry Collins. Manning, who |

The Packers scored a touchdown with 35 seconds remaining, converted the two- point try for a 21-21 deadlock, then recovered the onside kick prior to Crosby splitting the uprights. Aaron Rodgers was near perfect in the first half, hitting 19-of-23 attempts for 204 yards and a touchdown for the Packers. O |

| Toronto, ON (MySportsbook) - It seems that there has been a lot more focus on Indianapolis Colts' cornerstone Peyton Manning this off-season than in years past, and surprisingly, it's been for all the wrong reasons. After the NFL owners and players union came to terms on a new collective bargaining agreement, the first order of business in Indianapolis was on negotiating a contract extension with Manning that would have him finish his career in Indiana.

| Indianapolis, IN (MySportsbook) - The Indianapolis Colts have agreed to terms with recently-retired quarterback Kerry Collins in a potential signal that Peyton Manning might not be ready to start the season as he recovers from neck surgery. Colts owner Jim Irsay tweeted the Collins move on Wednesday and the Colts released a statement later in the day. "It is a good opportunity to have Kerry become part of the team," said Colts head coach Jim Caldwell. "He is a veteran quarterback who has started many games and |
