INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Adam Vinatieri is still clutch - and still almost automatic. The veteran Indianapolis Colts kicker made a 43-yard field goal as time expired this past Sunday in a 23-20 victory over the Tennessee Titans, his first game-winner in over two years. The man who has two Super Bowl-winning kicks was happy to get reacquainted with a bit of pressure in time for Saturday night's playoff game against the New York Jets. ``It's been a little while since I've had the opportunity,'' he said. ``There |

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) - Mark Sanchez has no concerns about his sore shoulder. Neither does coach Rex Ryan. Even if the New York Jets need their quarterback to air it out against the Indianapolis Colts. ``That shoulder is not an excuse for our football team,'' Ryan said Tuesday. ``Nothing is.'' Sanchez was limited in practice, as he has been for much of the last few weeks, but said he got in almost all of his throws and liked how the shoulder responded. ``I'm feeling good,'' Sanchez said, ``and ready |

| (MySportsbook) - When a loss to the Dallas Cowboys in early December dropped the Indianapolis Colts to 6-6, some began to whisper that the AFC South was open for the taking. When the Colts hosted the Jacksonville Jaguars on Dec. 19, a game in which the Jags would have clinched the division with a victory, there were talks that quarterback Peyton Manning's best days were behind him. When Indianapolis knocked off the Tennessee Titans, 23-20, this past Sunday on Adam Vinatieri's last-second field goal, the Colts |

| Indianapolis, IN (MySportsbook) - Adam Vinatieri kicked a 43-yard field goal as time expired and the Indianapolis Colts secured a No. 3 seed in the playoffs with a 23-20 win over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. The Colts (10-6) captured their seventh AFC South title in eight years even before Peyton Manning turned a fumbled Titans snap into the brief game-winning drive. Jacksonville took care of that for Indy by losing 34-17 to Houston. The Colts will host the New York Jets next Saturday night in their ninth s |

| (MySportsbook) - Thanks to a well-timed three-game winning streak, the Indianapolis Colts are a victory away from matching the NFL record for most consecutive postseason appearances. They'll try to tie that mark of nine playoff seasons in a row this Sunday with a win-and-in game versus the Tennessee Titans at Lucas Oil Stadium. The 9-6 Colts were in danger of being eliminated from the race for the AFC South crown by Jacksonville two weekends ago, but kept themselves alive with a 34-24 home win over the Jaguars |
