INDIANAPOLIS -- Andrew Luck followed a familiar script Sunday. Adidas Zx 850 Heureka . He started fast, played efficiently and delivered the late-game victory. Just like he did as a rookie. The only difference this time was that he won this game with his feet. After throwing for 178 yards and two touchdowns, Indys second-year quarterback took off and scored on a 19-yard TD run with 5:20 to play to beat Oakland 21-17. "I went through my reads. As youre sort of stepping up you sort of realize, Hey man, theres no one here," Luck said after Indy won its first opening-day game since 2009. "That decision is like OK, I can make the first down. Then you start running and its OK, lets go for the end zone." He made it work, of course, as he always seems to do. But Luck and the Colts tried to change the formula during the off-season. Indy brought in two new offensive linemen to protect Luck better and create running lanes, and it overhauled the defence to try and keep Luck and the offence on the field. They got mixed results Sunday. While the Colts ran 26 times for 127 yards, Luck was sacked four times and hit a handful of others, and the Raiders still managed to convert 7 of 13 times on third down. Luck completed 18 of 23 passes after starting the game with 11 consecutive completions. Reggie Wayne had eight catches for 96 yards and one score. The Colts defence couldnt get off the field in the second half, yet somehow managed to hold long enough to give Luck a chance to work his late-game magic, and then made the big play to seal the win. It was enough to get the win -- but not good enough to satisfy Chuck Pagano, who is 8-1 at home since taking over as the Colts coach last season. "We didnt go into a shell. It was either a penalty, negative play, a sack that took us out of (it)," he "We still drove the ball. We still got it to midfield. We were still on their side of the 50. But then wed shoot ourselves in the foot." The miscues allowed Oakland to stay close and even take the lead midway through the fourth quarter with a team that started the day with nine new defensive starters and no announced starting quarterback. But after allowing touchdowns on Indys first two series, the Raiders frustrated Luck and the Colts the rest of the day. The most frustrating part for the Colts was Terrelle Pryor. In just his second career start, the Raiders new starting quarterback went 19 of 29 for 217 yards with one touchdown and set a franchise record for yards rushing by a quarterback. Pryor, the former Ohio State star, carried 13 times for 112 yards, breaking the mark (85 yards) former league MVP Rich Gannon established Oct. 8, 2000. But Pryor made more mistakes than Luck. Pryor threw two interceptions, both in the red zone, and took a 16-yard sack with 68 seconds to go after Oakland reached the Indy 8-yard line. Two plays later, he was picked off by Antoine Bethea at the Colts 4. "Im disappointed in myself. Taking sacks in unacceptable," Pryor said. "This loss is on me. At the end of the day, I threw the ball away. I did awful, I thought." Luck opened the scoring with a looping 12-yard TD pass to Wayne on the first drive and stood in against Oaklands pressure to connect with Dwayne Allen on a 20-yard score to make it 14-0. Pryor answered with two long runs to Darren McFadden for a 1-yard TD run that cut the lead to 14-7. And with the score 14-10, Pryor gave Oakland the lead when he hooked up with Denarius Moore on a 5-yard TD pass with 11:09 to go. Thats when Luck responded. On third-and-4 from the Raiders 19, the middle of the field opened up and Luck took off. Oakland couldnt catch him. "Sometimes when it just opens up like that, you cant help but go," Luck said. "I knew I wanted the first down if I took off. Then Darius (Heyward-Bey) did a great job of coming out of his route and just pinning the guy, blocking his man in. A nice lane into the end zone."

LOUIS -- Mike Smith is used to facing plenty of shots, so this was nothing new. CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Ryan Brauns acknowledgement that he used performance-enhancing drugs was welcomed in the Milwaukee Brewers clubhouse, where players hope it helps to heal some of the pain caused by his actions and a resulting 65-game suspension. "I thought it was a good first step on the road to redemption, I guess you could say," catcher Jonathan Lucroy said Friday before the start of a series against the Cincinnati Reds. Braun released a statement Thursday night acknowledging for the first time that he used a cream and a lozenge containing banned substances while recovering from an injury in 2011, when he won the National Leagues MVP award. Several Brewers, including Lucroy, have stayed in touch with Braun by phone since he agreed to Major League Baseballs suspension on July 22. Lucroy expects Braun to have a news conference at some point to answer questions. For now, the statement sufficed. "It certainly was enough for me," manager Ron Roenicke said. "I think its enough for his teammates. Hes made some calls to his teammates. "I think no matter what he says, theres going to be some negative from a lot of people still: He didnt say enough (or) he didnt explain himself enough. I think he did. And I also think there are some things he probably still cant say. As I read into how he said it, I think there are some things that probably he cant bring up. Thats OK with me." Reliever John Axford said the statement should bring some closure. "Knowing Ryan and understanding Ryan, Im going to be able to move forward and I hope other people will be able too," Axford said. Brauns statement didnt provide any detail about exactly what substances he used or who provided them. Roenicke said Brauns probably limited in what he can say for now because of the legal ramifications. His suspension resulted from Major League Baseballs investigation of Biogenesis of America, a clinic that was accused of providing banned substances to major leaguers. Nike Air Huarache Cz. The clinic is now closed. Braun took full responsibility in his statement and apologized to numerous people. Lucroy said Braun will be welcomed back quicker by his teammates than he will be by others outside the team, even though he had misled his teammates as well. "I dont think its going to be that difficult in here," Lucroy said. "I think the outside, of course, is going to be harder to deal with. Within the clubhouse, I dont think so. If he comes back and is a good teammate and performs and contributes to the team winning, I dont see why he wont be welcomed back with open arms. "Im sure he will because hes very talented." Axford said hes already moved beyond the matter. "You can be upset, you can be angry, but in the clubhouse here were close," Axford said. "Were friends. Were family. And you have to have faith and belief and trust in your family. "If you want to move past it, you have to be able to forgive, and thats where Im at," Axford added. "Im in the position where I want to be able to forgive and move past this and talk to Ryan like our friends and family." Roenicke agreed that Braun will have a tougher time being forgiven by those outside the club. "This is a nice man," Roenicke said, sitting on the bench in the visitors dugout at Great American Ball Park during batting practice. "He is. This is a nice young man that messed up. Thats what it is. "And hes got a long road ahead of him. Im sure hell be yelled at at all of the stadiums hell go to next year," Roenicke added. "Hes going to have things continually written about him. But its a first step, I think, in trying to get through this, probably trying to heal up some relationships, whether its the fans, whether its his good friends, whether its his teammates. "I think this is a nice step toward that," he said. Cheap Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys ' ' '
