Keiwan Ratliff scored on a 35-yard interception return last night to give the Indianapolis Colts a 31-24 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars and the No. 5 seed position in the National Football League playoffs .
The Colts , trailing 14-0 at the start of the second quarter , scored 17 unanswered points in the fourth quarter to clinch their eighth straight win .
Dallas Clark scored on a one- yard pass and Adam Vinatieri tied the game at 24-24 with a 45-yard field goal before Ratliff intercepted a David Garrard pass , the only turnover of the game , for the winning touchdown .
`` We were grateful for the win , '' Colts coach Tony Dungy said in a post-game broadcast interview .

COLTS BEAT CHIEFS 20 - 13 TO CLINCH PLAYOFF BERTH
Dec . 24 4 : 33 AM EST
Andrew Luck couldn't help but smile thinking about the joyous celebration taking place just down the hall , through the big metal doors marking the entrance to the Colts' locker room .
Even interim coach Bruce Arians had been dancing .
"It's a fun locker room , a great locker room , " Luck said after leading Indianapolis to a 20 - 13 victory over Kansas City .
"You know guys are going to play hard no matter what the score , no matter what the situation , and I am very proud to be a part of a team like that . "
A team that's headed back to the playoffs , too .
Luck threw for 205 yards on Sunday , breaking Cam Newton's single - season mark for yards by a <m> first - year quarterback </m> .
He also engineered the go - ahead drive late in the fourth quarter , hitting Reggie Wayne on third - and - goal from the Kansas City 7 with just over 4 minutes remaining .
The touchdown pass finished off Luck's seventh four - quarter comeback this season , and allowed the Colts ( 10 - 5 ) to join the Miami Dolphins of 2008 as the only teams in NFL history to win at least 10 games one year after losing 14 or more .
"Would we have done it without him ? " Arians asked .
"No . "
Luck broke Newton's record of 4 , 051 yards passing in the second quarter , and then became the fifth rookie quarterback in the Super Bowl era to win at least 10 games in a season .
"Obviously it's nicer to be in the playoffs , " Luck said , "but it's nice to have a couple records — which I'm sure will be broken in the next year . "
Don't be quite so sure .
Luck still has next Sunday's game against Houston to pile up numbers , and then comes a trip to the playoffs , where the Colts became a mainstay under his predecessor , Peyton Manning .
"We didn't want to slide in the backdoor and put the extra stress on a man having to win the next game , " Luck said .
"So we are very glad to be going to the postseason . "
Arians will also get a reprieve from shouldering so much of the burden .
Colts coach Chuck Pagano , who has undergoing treatment for leukemia , plans to rejoin the team this week .
Jamaal Charles ran for 226 yards for the Chiefs , including an 84 - yard scamper on the first play of the second half as his team rallied to forge a 13 - all tie entering the fourth quarter .
It was Charles' second 200 - yard game of the season , and the third of his career , and came one week after he managed 10 yards on nine carries against Oakland .
"It was fun today , competing out there and doing it while we were trying to come back , " Charles said .
"It was fun going out there and putting out a performance like that . "
Charles joined the Titans' Chris Johnson and former Lions great Barry Sanders as the only players with three runs of 80 or more yards in a season .
Peyton Hillis added 101 yards on the ground for the Chiefs ( 2 - 13 ) , who finished with 352 yards rushing in a losing effort .
A big reason why was Brady Quinn , who was just 10 of 22 for 162 yards with two interceptions through the air .
"This game was without a doubt , 100 percent on my shoulders , " Quinn said .
"You can't play the way I played today and win a football game . "
His trouble began with the Chiefs' fifth offensive play , when he threw woefully behind Dexter McCluster — who wasn't even looking for the ball .
Darius Butler picked off the pass in stride , and took it untouched 32 yards to give the Colts a 7 - 0 lead .
Kansas City managed a field goal by Ryan Succop , but he missed his next try and the Colts went the other direction to set up the first of Adam Vinatieri's two field goals .
Charles fumbled in the red zone later in the second quarter , and the Colts moved into Vinatieri's range for a 36 - yard field goal and a 13 - 3 halftime lead .
Charles electrified a sparse crowd on the first play of the second half .
He angled to the left and then found room down the sideline , cutting back toward the middle of the field and winning a foot - race with the Indianapolis defense for an 86 - yard touchdown run .
The Chiefs were in position to take the lead later in the third quarter , but Quinn was picked off by Vontae Davis in the end zone .
The defense forced a three - and - out and Kansas City was driving again before settling for Succop's tying 47 - yard field goal .
The Chiefs got the ball back again late in the fourth quarter , but Quinn was stuffed on a quarterback sneak on fourth - and - inches from the Indianapolis 27 .
That turned the ball over to Luck , who completed an 11 - yard pass to T . Y . Hilton to convert a third down before he and Wayne won it .
"At times it looked a little bleak , " Arians said .
"Guys hung in there , made plays when they had to make them .
Offensively we struggled , and then put together a drive , like we have all year . "
NOTES : Chiefs WR Terrance Copper ( left knee ) and DT Tyson Jackson ( left foot ) left with injuries . . . .
Wayne had five catches to become the fifth player in NFL history with four 100 - catch seasons .
He also became the 14th player to reach 13 , 000 yards receiving . |

Jamaal Charles ran for 226 yards for the Chiefs , including an 84 - yard scamper on the first play of the second half as his team rallied to forge a 13 - all tie entering the fourth quarter .
It was Charles' second 200 - yard game of the season , and the third of his career , and came one week after he managed 10 yards on nine carries against Oakland .
"It was fun today , competing out there and doing it while we were trying to come back , " Charles said .
"It was fun going out there and putting out a performance like that . "
Charles joined the Titans' Chris Johnson and former Lions great Barry Sanders as the only players with three runs of 80 or more yards in a season .
Peyton Hillis added 101 yards on the ground for the Chiefs ( 2 - 13 ) , who finished with 352 yards rushing in a losing effort .
A big reason why was Brady Quinn , who was just 10 of 22 for 162 yards with two interceptions through the air .
"This game was without a doubt , 100 percent on my shoulders , " Quinn said .
"You can't play the way I played today and win a football game . "
His trouble began with the Chiefs' fifth offensive play , when he threw woefully behind Dexter McCluster — who wasn't even looking for the ball .
Darius Butler picked off the pass in stride , and took it untouched 32 yards to give the Colts a 7 - 0 lead .
Kansas City managed a field goal by Ryan Succop , but he missed his next try and the Colts went the other direction to set up the first of Adam Vinatieri's two field goals .
Charles fumbled in the red zone later in the second quarter , and the Colts moved into Vinatieri's range for a 36 - yard field goal and a 13 - 3 halftime lead .
Charles electrified a sparse crowd on the first play of the second half .
He angled to the left and then found room down the sideline , cutting back toward the middle of the field and winning a foot - race with the Indianapolis defense for an 86 - yard touchdown run .
The Chiefs were in position to take the lead later in the third quarter , but Quinn was picked off by Vontae Davis in the end zone .
The defense forced a three - and - out and Kansas City was driving again before settling for Succop's tying 47 - yard field goal .
The Chiefs got the ball back again late in the fourth quarter , but Quinn was stuffed on a quarterback sneak on fourth - and - inches from the Indianapolis 27 .
That turned the ball over to Luck , who completed an 11 - yard pass to T . Y . Hilton to convert a third down before he and Wayne won it .
"At times it looked a little bleak , " Arians said .
"Guys hung in there , made plays when they had to make them .
Offensively we struggled , and then put together a drive , like we have all year . "
NOTES : Chiefs WR Terrance Copper ( left knee ) and DT Tyson Jackson ( left foot ) left with injuries . . . .
Wayne had five catches to become the fifth player in NFL history with four 100 - catch seasons .
He also became the 14th player to reach 13 , 000 yards receiving . |

COLTS BEAT <m> CHIEFS </m> 20 - 13 TO CLINCH PLAYOFF BERTH
Dec . 24 4 : 33 AM EST
Andrew Luck couldn't help but smile thinking about the joyous celebration taking place just down the hall , through the big metal doors marking the entrance to the Colts' locker room .
Even interim coach Bruce Arians had been dancing .
"It's a fun locker room , a great locker room , " Luck said after leading Indianapolis to a 20 - 13 victory over Kansas City .
"You know guys are going to play hard no matter what the score , no matter what the situation , and I am very proud to be a part of a team like that . "
A team that's headed back to the playoffs , too .
Luck threw for 205 yards on Sunday , breaking Cam Newton's single - season mark for yards by a first - year quarterback .
He also engineered the go - ahead drive late in the fourth quarter , hitting Reggie Wayne on third - and - goal from the Kansas City 7 with just over 4 minutes remaining .
The touchdown pass finished off Luck's seventh four - quarter comeback this season , and allowed the Colts ( 10 - 5 ) to join the Miami Dolphins of 2008 as the only teams in NFL history to win at least 10 games one year after losing 14 or more .
"Would we have done it without him ? " Arians asked .
"No . "
Luck broke Newton's record of 4 , 051 yards passing in the second quarter , and then became the fifth rookie quarterback in the Super Bowl era to win at least 10 games in a season .
"Obviously it's nicer to be in the playoffs , " Luck said , "but it's nice to have a couple records — which I'm sure will be broken in the next year . "
Don't be quite so sure .
Luck still has next Sunday's game against Houston to pile up numbers , and then comes a trip to the playoffs , where the Colts became a mainstay under his predecessor , Peyton Manning .
"We didn't want to slide in the backdoor and put the extra stress on a man having to win the next game , " Luck said .
"So we are very glad to be going to the postseason . "
Arians will also get a reprieve from shouldering so much of the burden .

Darius Butler picked off the pass in stride , and took it untouched 32 yards to give the Colts a 7 - 0 lead .
Kansas City managed a field goal by Ryan Succop , but he missed his next try and the Colts went the other direction to set up the first of Adam Vinatieri's two field goals .
Charles fumbled in the red zone later in the second quarter , and the Colts moved into Vinatieri's range for a 36 - yard field goal and a 13 - 3 halftime lead .
Charles electrified a sparse crowd on the first play of the second half .
He angled to the left and then found room down the sideline , cutting back toward the middle of the field and winning a foot - race with the Indianapolis defense for an 86 - yard touchdown run .

The defense forced a three - and - out and Kansas City was driving again before settling for Succop's tying 47 - yard field goal .
The Chiefs got the ball back again late in the fourth quarter , but Quinn was stuffed on a quarterback sneak on fourth - and - inches from the Indianapolis 27 .
That turned the ball over to Luck , who completed an 11 - yard pass to T . Y . Hilton to convert a third down before he and Wayne won it .
"At times it looked a little bleak , " Arians said .

COLTS BEAT CHIEFS 20 - 13 TO CLINCH PLAYOFF BERTH
Dec . 24 4 : 33 AM EST
Andrew Luck couldn't help but smile thinking about the joyous celebration taking place just down the hall , through the big metal doors marking the entrance to the Colts' locker room .
Even interim coach Bruce Arians had been dancing .
"It's a fun locker room , a great locker room , " Luck said after leading Indianapolis to a 20 - 13 victory over Kansas City .
"You know guys are going to play hard no matter what the score , no matter what the situation , and I am very proud to be a part of a team like that . "
A team that's headed back to the playoffs , too .
Luck threw for 205 yards on Sunday , breaking <m> Cam Newton's </m> single - season mark for yards by a first - year quarterback .
He also engineered the go - ahead drive late in the fourth quarter , hitting Reggie Wayne on third - and - goal from the Kansas City 7 with just over 4 minutes remaining .
The touchdown pass finished off Luck's seventh four - quarter comeback this season , and allowed the Colts ( 10 - 5 ) to join the Miami Dolphins of 2008 as the only teams in NFL history to win at least 10 games one year after losing 14 or more .
"Would we have done it without him ? " Arians asked .
"No . "
Luck broke Newton's record of 4 , 051 yards passing in the second quarter , and then became the fifth rookie quarterback in the Super Bowl era to win at least 10 games in a season .
"Obviously it's nicer to be in the playoffs , " Luck said , "but it's nice to have a couple records — which I'm sure will be broken in the next year . "
Don't be quite so sure .
Luck still has next Sunday's game against Houston to pile up numbers , and then comes a trip to the playoffs , where the Colts became a mainstay under his predecessor , Peyton Manning .
"We didn't want to slide in the backdoor and put the extra stress on a man having to win the next game , " Luck said .
"So we are very glad to be going to the postseason . "
Arians will also get a reprieve from shouldering so much of the burden .
Colts coach Chuck Pagano , who has undergoing treatment for leukemia , plans to rejoin the team this week .
Jamaal Charles ran for 226 yards for the Chiefs , including an 84 - yard scamper on the first play of the second half as his team rallied to forge a 13 - all tie entering the fourth quarter .
It was Charles' second 200 - yard game of the season , and the third of his career , and came one week after he managed 10 yards on nine carries against Oakland .
"It was fun today , competing out there and doing it while we were trying to come back , " Charles said .
"It was fun going out there and putting out a performance like that . "
Charles joined the Titans' Chris Johnson and former Lions great Barry Sanders as the only players with three runs of 80 or more yards in a season .
Peyton Hillis added 101 yards on the ground for the Chiefs ( 2 - 13 ) , who finished with 352 yards rushing in a losing effort .
A big reason why was Brady Quinn , who was just 10 of 22 for 162 yards with two interceptions through the air .

COLTS BEAT CHIEFS 20 - 13 TO CLINCH PLAYOFF BERTH
Dec . 24 4 : 33 AM EST
Andrew Luck couldn't help but smile thinking about the joyous celebration taking place just down the hall , through the big metal doors marking the entrance to the Colts' locker room .
Even interim coach Bruce Arians had been dancing .
"It's a fun locker room , a great locker room , " Luck said after leading Indianapolis to a <m> 20 - 13 </m> victory over Kansas City .
"You know guys are going to play hard no matter what the score , no matter what the situation , and I am very proud to be a part of a team like that . "
A team that's headed back to the playoffs , too .
Luck threw for 205 yards on Sunday , breaking Cam Newton's single - season mark for yards by a first - year quarterback .
He also engineered the go - ahead drive late in the fourth quarter , hitting Reggie Wayne on third - and - goal from the Kansas City 7 with just over 4 minutes remaining .
The touchdown pass finished off Luck's seventh four - quarter comeback this season , and allowed the Colts ( 10 - 5 ) to join the Miami Dolphins of 2008 as the only teams in NFL history to win at least 10 games one year after losing 14 or more .
"Would we have done it without him ? " Arians asked .
"No . "
Luck broke Newton's record of 4 , 051 yards passing in the second quarter , and then became the fifth rookie quarterback in the Super Bowl era to win at least 10 games in a season .
"Obviously it's nicer to be in the playoffs , " Luck said , "but it's nice to have a couple records — which I'm sure will be broken in the next year . "
Don't be quite so sure .
Luck still has next Sunday's game against Houston to pile up numbers , and then comes a trip to the playoffs , where the Colts became a mainstay under his predecessor , Peyton Manning .
"We didn't want to slide in the backdoor and put the extra stress on a man having to win the next game , " Luck said .
"So we are very glad to be going to the postseason . "
Arians will also get a reprieve from shouldering so much of the burden .
Colts coach Chuck Pagano , who has undergoing treatment for leukemia , plans to rejoin the team this week .
Jamaal Charles ran for 226 yards for the Chiefs , including an 84 - yard scamper on the first play of the second half as his team rallied to forge a 13 - all tie entering the fourth quarter .
It was Charles' second 200 - yard game of the season , and the third of his career , and came one week after he managed 10 yards on nine carries against Oakland .
"It was fun today , competing out there and doing it while we were trying to come back , " Charles said .
"It was fun going out there and putting out a performance like that . "
Charles joined the Titans' Chris Johnson and former Lions great Barry Sanders as the only players with three runs of 80 or more yards in a season .
Peyton Hillis added 101 yards on the ground for the Chiefs ( 2 - 13 ) , who finished with 352 yards rushing in a losing effort .
A big reason why was Brady Quinn , who was just 10 of 22 for 162 yards with two interceptions through the air .
"This game was without a doubt , 100 percent on my shoulders , " Quinn said .
"You can't play the way I played today and win a football game . "
His trouble began with the Chiefs' fifth offensive play , when he threw woefully behind Dexter McCluster — who wasn't even looking for the ball .
Darius Butler picked off the pass in stride , and took it untouched 32 yards to give the Colts a 7 - 0 lead .
Kansas City managed a field goal by Ryan Succop , but he missed his next try and the Colts went the other direction to set up the first of Adam Vinatieri's two field goals .
Charles fumbled in the red zone later in the second quarter , and the Colts moved into Vinatieri's range for a 36 - yard field goal and a 13 - 3 halftime lead .
Charles electrified a sparse crowd on the first play of the second half .
He angled to the left and then found room down the sideline , cutting back toward the middle of the field and winning a foot - race with the Indianapolis defense for an 86 - yard touchdown run .
The Chiefs were in position to take the lead later in the third quarter , but Quinn was picked off by Vontae Davis in the end zone .
The defense forced a three - and - out and Kansas City was driving again before settling for Succop's tying 47 - yard field goal .
The Chiefs got the ball back again late in the fourth quarter , but Quinn was stuffed on a quarterback sneak on fourth - and - inches from the Indianapolis 27 .
That turned the ball over to Luck , who completed an 11 - yard pass to T . Y . Hilton to convert a third down before he and Wayne won it .
"At times it looked a little bleak , " Arians said .
"Guys hung in there , made plays when they had to make them .
Offensively we struggled , and then put together a drive , like we have all year . "

COLTS BEAT CHIEFS 20 - 13 TO CLINCH PLAYOFF BERTH
Dec . 24 4 : 33 AM EST
Andrew Luck couldn't help but smile thinking about the joyous celebration taking place just down the hall , through the big metal doors marking the entrance to the Colts' locker room .
Even interim coach Bruce Arians had been dancing .
"It's a fun locker room , a great locker room , " Luck said after leading Indianapolis to a 20 - 13 victory over Kansas City .
"You know guys are going to play hard no matter what the score , no matter what the situation , and I am very proud to be a part of a team like that . "
A team that's headed back to the playoffs , too .
Luck threw for 205 yards on Sunday , <m> breaking </m> Cam Newton's single - season mark for yards by a first - year quarterback .
He also engineered the go - ahead drive late in the fourth quarter , hitting Reggie Wayne on third - and - goal from the Kansas City 7 with just over 4 minutes remaining .
The touchdown pass finished off Luck's seventh four - quarter comeback this season , and allowed the Colts ( 10 - 5 ) to join the Miami Dolphins of 2008 as the only teams in NFL history to win at least 10 games one year after losing 14 or more .
"Would we have done it without him ? " Arians asked .
"No . "
Luck broke Newton's record of 4 , 051 yards passing in the second quarter , and then became the fifth rookie quarterback in the Super Bowl era to win at least 10 games in a season .
"Obviously it's nicer to be in the playoffs , " Luck said , "but it's nice to have a couple records — which I'm sure will be broken in the next year . "
Don't be quite so sure .
Luck still has next Sunday's game against Houston to pile up numbers , and then comes a trip to the playoffs , where the Colts became a mainstay under his predecessor , Peyton Manning .
"We didn't want to slide in the backdoor and put the extra stress on a man having to win the next game , " Luck said .
"So we are very glad to be going to the postseason . "
Arians will also get a reprieve from shouldering so much of the burden .
Colts coach Chuck Pagano , who has undergoing treatment for leukemia , plans to rejoin the team this week .
Jamaal Charles ran for 226 yards for the Chiefs , including an 84 - yard scamper on the first play of the second half as his team rallied to forge a 13 - all tie entering the fourth quarter .
It was Charles' second 200 - yard game of the season , and the third of his career , and came one week after he managed 10 yards on nine carries against Oakland .
"It was fun today , competing out there and doing it while we were trying to come back , " Charles said .
"It was fun going out there and putting out a performance like that . "
Charles joined the Titans' Chris Johnson and former Lions great Barry Sanders as the only players with three runs of 80 or more yards in a season .
Peyton Hillis added 101 yards on the ground for the Chiefs ( 2 - 13 ) , who finished with 352 yards rushing in a losing effort .
A big reason why was Brady Quinn , who was just 10 of 22 for 162 yards with two interceptions through the air .
"This game was without a doubt , 100 percent on my shoulders , " Quinn said .
"You can't play the way I played today and win a football game . "
His trouble began with the Chiefs' fifth offensive play , when he threw woefully behind Dexter McCluster — who wasn't even looking for the ball .
Darius Butler picked off the pass in stride , and took it untouched 32 yards to give the Colts a 7 - 0 lead .
Kansas City managed a field goal by Ryan Succop , but he missed his next try and the Colts went the other direction to set up the first of Adam Vinatieri's two field goals .
Charles fumbled in the red zone later in the second quarter , and the Colts moved into Vinatieri's range for a 36 - yard field goal and a 13 - 3 halftime lead .
Charles electrified a sparse crowd on the first play of the second half .
He angled to the left and then found room down the sideline , cutting back toward the middle of the field and winning a foot - race with the Indianapolis defense for an 86 - yard touchdown run .
The Chiefs were in position to take the lead later in the third quarter , but Quinn was picked off by Vontae Davis in the end zone .
The defense forced a three - and - out and Kansas City was driving again before settling for Succop's tying 47 - yard field goal .
The Chiefs got the ball back again late in the fourth quarter , but Quinn was stuffed on a quarterback sneak on fourth - and - inches from the Indianapolis 27 .
That turned the ball over to Luck , who completed an 11 - yard pass to T . Y . Hilton to convert a third down before he and Wayne won it .
"At times it looked a little bleak , " Arians said .
"Guys hung in there , made plays when they had to make them .
Offensively we struggled , and then put together a drive , like we have all year . "
NOTES : Chiefs WR Terrance Copper ( left knee ) and DT Tyson Jackson ( left foot ) left with injuries . . . .
Wayne had five catches to become the fifth player in NFL history with four 100 - catch seasons .
He also became the 14th player to reach 13 , 000 yards receiving . |

The touchdown pass finished off Luck's seventh four - quarter comeback this season , and allowed the Colts ( 10 - 5 ) to join the Miami Dolphins of 2008 as the only teams in NFL history to win at least 10 games one year after losing 14 or more .
"Would we have done it without him ? " Arians asked .
"No . "
Luck broke Newton's record of 4 , 051 yards passing in the second quarter , and then became the fifth rookie quarterback in the Super Bowl era to win at least 10 games in a season .
"Obviously it's nicer to be in the playoffs , " Luck said , "but it's nice to have a couple records — which I'm sure will be broken in the next year . "
Don't be quite so sure .
Luck still has next Sunday's game against Houston to pile up numbers , and then comes a trip to the playoffs , where the Colts became a mainstay under his predecessor , Peyton Manning .
"We didn't want to slide in the backdoor and put the extra stress on a man having to win the next game , " Luck said .
"So we are very glad to be going to the postseason . "
Arians will also get a reprieve from shouldering so much of the burden .
Colts coach Chuck Pagano , who has undergoing treatment for leukemia , plans to rejoin the team this week .
Jamaal Charles ran for 226 yards for the Chiefs , including an 84 - yard scamper on the first play of the second half as his team rallied to forge a 13 - all tie entering the fourth quarter .
It was Charles' second 200 - yard game of the season , and the third of his career , and came one week after he managed 10 yards on nine carries against Oakland .
"It was fun today , competing out there and doing it while we were trying to come back , " Charles said .
"It was fun going out there and putting out a performance like that . "
Charles joined the Titans' Chris Johnson and former Lions great Barry Sanders as the only players with three runs of 80 or more yards in a season .
Peyton Hillis added 101 yards on the ground for the Chiefs ( 2 - 13 ) , who finished with 352 yards rushing in a losing effort .
A big reason why was Brady Quinn , who was just 10 of 22 for 162 yards with two interceptions through the air .
"This game was without a doubt , 100 percent on my shoulders , " Quinn said .
"You can't play the way I played today and win a football game . "
His trouble began with the Chiefs' fifth offensive play , when he threw woefully behind Dexter McCluster — who wasn't even looking for the ball .
Darius Butler picked off the pass in stride , and took it untouched 32 yards to give the Colts a 7 - 0 lead .
Kansas City managed a field goal by Ryan Succop , but he missed his next try and the Colts went the other direction to set up the first of Adam Vinatieri's two field goals .
Charles fumbled in the red zone later in the second quarter , and the Colts moved into Vinatieri's range for a 36 - yard field goal and a 13 - 3 halftime lead .
Charles electrified a sparse crowd on the first play of the second half .
He angled to the left and then found room down the sideline , cutting back toward the middle of the field and winning a foot - race with the Indianapolis defense for an 86 - yard touchdown run .
The Chiefs were in position to take the lead later in the third quarter , but Quinn was picked off by Vontae Davis in the end zone .
The defense forced a three - and - out and Kansas City was driving again before settling for Succop's tying 47 - yard field goal .
The Chiefs got the ball back again late in the fourth quarter , but Quinn was stuffed on a quarterback sneak on fourth - and - inches from the Indianapolis 27 .
That turned the ball over to Luck , who completed an 11 - yard pass to T . Y . Hilton to convert a third down before he and Wayne won it .
"At times it looked a little bleak , " Arians said .
"Guys hung in there , made plays when they had to make them .
Offensively we struggled , and then put together a drive , like we have all year . "
NOTES : Chiefs WR Terrance Copper ( left knee ) and DT Tyson Jackson ( left foot ) left with injuries . . . .
Wayne had five catches to become the fifth player in NFL history with four 100 - catch seasons .
He also became the 14th player to reach 13 , 000 yards receiving . |

Jamaal Charles ran for 226 yards for the Chiefs , including an 84 - yard scamper on the first play of the second half as his team rallied to forge a 13 - all tie entering the fourth quarter .
It was Charles' second 200 - yard game of the season , and the third of his career , and came one week after he managed 10 yards on nine carries against Oakland .
"It was fun today , competing out there and doing it while we were trying to come back , " Charles said .
"It was fun going out there and putting out a performance like that . "
Charles joined the Titans' Chris Johnson and former Lions great Barry Sanders as the only players with three runs of 80 or more yards in a season .
Peyton Hillis added 101 yards on the ground for the Chiefs ( 2 - 13 ) , who finished with 352 yards rushing in a losing effort .
A big reason why was Brady Quinn , who was just 10 of 22 for 162 yards with two interceptions through the air .
"This game was without a doubt , 100 percent on my shoulders , " Quinn said .
"You can't play the way I played today and win a football game . "
His trouble began with the Chiefs' fifth offensive play , when he threw woefully behind Dexter McCluster — who wasn't even looking for the ball .
Darius Butler picked off the pass in stride , and took it untouched 32 yards to give the Colts a 7 - 0 lead .
Kansas City managed a field goal by Ryan Succop , but he missed his next try and the Colts went the other direction to set up the first of Adam Vinatieri's two field goals .
Charles fumbled in the red zone later in the second quarter , and the Colts moved into Vinatieri's range for a 36 - yard field goal and a 13 - 3 halftime lead .
Charles electrified a sparse crowd on the first play of the second half .
He angled to the left and then found room down the sideline , cutting back toward the middle of the field and winning a foot - race with the Indianapolis defense for an 86 - yard touchdown run .
The Chiefs were in position to take the lead later in the third quarter , but Quinn was picked off by Vontae Davis in the end zone .
The defense forced a three - and - out and Kansas City was driving again before settling for Succop's tying 47 - yard field goal .
The Chiefs got the ball back again late in the fourth quarter , but Quinn was stuffed on a quarterback sneak on fourth - and - inches from the Indianapolis 27 .
That turned the ball over to Luck , who completed an 11 - yard pass to T . Y . Hilton to convert a third down before he and Wayne won it .
"At times it looked a little bleak , " Arians said .
"Guys hung in there , made plays when they had to make them .
Offensively we struggled , and then put together a drive , like we have all year . "
NOTES : Chiefs WR Terrance Copper ( left knee ) and DT Tyson Jackson ( left foot ) left with injuries . . . .
Wayne had five catches to become the fifth player in NFL history with four 100 - catch seasons .
He also became the 14th player to reach 13 , 000 yards receiving . |

COLTS BEAT CHIEFS 20 - 13 TO CLINCH PLAYOFF BERTH
Dec . 24 4 : 33 AM EST
Andrew Luck couldn't help but smile thinking about the joyous celebration taking place just down the hall , through the big metal doors marking the entrance to the Colts' locker room .
Even interim coach Bruce Arians had been dancing .
"It's a fun locker room , a <m> great </m> locker room , " Luck said after leading Indianapolis to a 20 - 13 victory over Kansas City .
"You know guys are going to play hard no matter what the score , no matter what the situation , and I am very proud to be a part of a team like that . "
A team that's headed back to the playoffs , too .
Luck threw for 205 yards on Sunday , breaking Cam Newton's single - season mark for yards by a first - year quarterback .
He also engineered the go - ahead drive late in the fourth quarter , hitting Reggie Wayne on third - and - goal from the Kansas City 7 with just over 4 minutes remaining .
The touchdown pass finished off Luck's seventh four - quarter comeback this season , and allowed the Colts ( 10 - 5 ) to join the Miami Dolphins of 2008 as the only teams in NFL history to win at least 10 games one year after losing 14 or more .
"Would we have done it without him ? " Arians asked .
"No . "
Luck broke Newton's record of 4 , 051 yards passing in the second quarter , and then became the fifth rookie quarterback in the Super Bowl era to win at least 10 games in a season .
"Obviously it's nicer to be in the playoffs , " Luck said , "but it's nice to have a couple records — which I'm sure will be broken in the next year . "
Don't be quite so sure .
Luck still has next Sunday's game against Houston to pile up numbers , and then comes a trip to the playoffs , where the Colts became a mainstay under his predecessor , Peyton Manning .
"We didn't want to slide in the backdoor and put the extra stress on a man having to win the next game , " Luck said .
"So we are very glad to be going to the postseason . "
Arians will also get a reprieve from shouldering so much of the burden .

<m> Colts </m> Clinch Playoff Spot with 20 - 13 Win Over Chiefs
on Dec 23 2012 , 6 : 11p
The Indianapolis Colts clinched a playoff spot and the five seed in the AFC playoffs with a 20 - 13 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on another Andrew Luck game - winning drive , his seventh of the season .
A year ago , the Indianapolis Colts were an NFL - worst 2 - 14 and did not figure to be much better this season .
But fifteen games later and the Colts stand at 10 - 5 and in the playoffs as the AFC's five seed .
It is the representation of an incredible sesaon that will be extended beyond just next week .
The Colts got the win today , but it wasn't pretty .
In fact , according to Pro Football Reference , it was the first time in NFL history that a team rushed for over 350 yards and lost the game .
The Colts were outplayed on both sides of the ball , but when it counted Andrew Luck and the Colts got it done .
Check out some notes from the game :
Andrew Luck was terrible for a stretch in the game that included 10 straight incompletions .
But after that he got hot at just the right time and hit his last 6 passes of the day , capped off by a 7 - yard touchdown pass to Reggie Wayne in the back of the end zone for what proved to be the game winning score with four minutes left .
He ended the day 17 / 35 for 205 yards and the touchdown along with 6 carries for 21 yards .
For the second week in a row he did not turn the ball over , which is huge .
And he also set the NFL rookie record for most passing yards in a season with 4 , 051 yards - breaking Cam Newton's record set a year ago .
Dwayne Allen also set a Colts rookie record for receptions by a tight end with 43 .
Allen has had a tremendous rookie year .
He has a bright future ahead of him .
Cassius Vaughn and Pat Angerer both were terrible today .
There were others as well , but those two were the ones that really stuck out .
Basically , however , the whole defense stunk today .
The Colts gave up 507 total yards , 352 of them on the ground .
It was the worst run defense I have seen the Colts play since that now infamous debacle in Jacksonville in 2006 .
Simply must improve .
That said , the Colts won the turnover battle 3 - 0 over the Chiefs .
Darius Butler picked off a terrible Brady Quinn throw and took it back 32 yards for a score .
It was Butler's 4th pick of the year and the 2nd one he returned for a touchdown .
Pat Angerer also forced a big fumble with the Chiefs in the red zone and threatening that led to 3 points for the Colts before the half .
And then the 3rd turnover was a pick by Vontae Davis .
When you have a +3 turnover differential , you are going to win most games .
It will be huge if the Colts could keep that up .
The wide receivers really didn't help out Andrew Luck today .
They dropped several passes ( Reggie Wayne included ) and failed to get open numerous other times .
While it looked like a bad game from Luck , I place more of the blame on the receivers in this one .
Nothing was open .
However , on the final drive , once Reggie Wayne started getting involved , the Colts started rolling .
On the last drive he caught 3 passes for 37 yards and a touchdown .
Prior to that he had caught 2 passes for 44 .
The key was that once the Colts got Reggie involved , good things happened .
This game was Andrew Luck's 7th game - winning drive of the season , tying an NFL record - not just a rookie record .
Peyton Manning did it twice .
Incredibly , if Luck leads a game winning drive next week in a very winnable game for the Colts , he would have the NFL record all to himself - as a rookie .
Added to that fact is that the Colts are 8 - 1 in games decided by one score or less - the only loss coming in week 3 on that last - minute 80 yard touchdown pass by the Jaguars after Luck had led another go - ahead scoring drive late in the 4th quarter .
Chuck Pagano returns tomorrow .
What a moment that will be tomorrow when Pagano walks into the locker room and is handed the head coaching reigns once again .
And what a moment that will be next Sunday when he takes the field for the first time since week 3 .
Colts nation has supported him all the way , as has the NFL .
Next Sunday , the division rival Houston Texans come to Lucas Oil Stadium having never won in Indy .
This is a game that before the season I even thought the Colts would win - back when I thought they would get 7 wins all year .
They can beat the Texans , and with Pagano coming back , that will be a special game .
Great job , Bruce Arians .
Tremendous .
Now my piece of advice to the Colts - don't stop being Chuckstrong .
Pagano certainly won't . |

Colts Clinch Playoff <m> Spot </m> with 20 - 13 Win Over Chiefs
on Dec 23 2012 , 6 : 11p
The Indianapolis Colts clinched a playoff spot and the five seed in the AFC playoffs with a 20 - 13 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on another Andrew Luck game - winning drive , his seventh of the season .
A year ago , the Indianapolis Colts were an NFL - worst 2 - 14 and did not figure to be much better this season .
But fifteen games later and the Colts stand at 10 - 5 and in the playoffs as the AFC's five seed .
It is the representation of an incredible sesaon that will be extended beyond just next week .
The Colts got the win today , but it wasn't pretty .
In fact , according to Pro Football Reference , it was the first time in NFL history that a team rushed for over 350 yards and lost the game .
The Colts were outplayed on both sides of the ball , but when it counted Andrew Luck and the Colts got it done .
Check out some notes from the game :
Andrew Luck was terrible for a stretch in the game that included 10 straight incompletions .
But after that he got hot at just the right time and hit his last 6 passes of the day , capped off by a 7 - yard touchdown pass to Reggie Wayne in the back of the end zone for what proved to be the game winning score with four minutes left .
He ended the day 17 / 35 for 205 yards and the touchdown along with 6 carries for 21 yards .
For the second week in a row he did not turn the ball over , which is huge .
And he also set the NFL rookie record for most passing yards in a season with 4 , 051 yards - breaking Cam Newton's record set a year ago .
Dwayne Allen also set a Colts rookie record for receptions by a tight end with 43 .
Allen has had a tremendous rookie year .
He has a bright future ahead of him .
Cassius Vaughn and Pat Angerer both were terrible today .
There were others as well , but those two were the ones that really stuck out .
Basically , however , the whole defense stunk today .
The Colts gave up 507 total yards , 352 of them on the ground .
It was the worst run defense I have seen the Colts play since that now infamous debacle in Jacksonville in 2006 .
Simply must improve .
That said , the Colts won the turnover battle 3 - 0 over the Chiefs .
Darius Butler picked off a terrible Brady Quinn throw and took it back 32 yards for a score .
It was Butler's 4th pick of the year and the 2nd one he returned for a touchdown .
Pat Angerer also forced a big fumble with the Chiefs in the red zone and threatening that led to 3 points for the Colts before the half .
And then the 3rd turnover was a pick by Vontae Davis .
When you have a +3 turnover differential , you are going to win most games .
It will be huge if the Colts could keep that up .
The wide receivers really didn't help out Andrew Luck today .
They dropped several passes ( Reggie Wayne included ) and failed to get open numerous other times .
While it looked like a bad game from Luck , I place more of the blame on the receivers in this one .
Nothing was open .
However , on the final drive , once Reggie Wayne started getting involved , the Colts started rolling .
On the last drive he caught 3 passes for 37 yards and a touchdown .
Prior to that he had caught 2 passes for 44 .
The key was that once the Colts got Reggie involved , good things happened .
This game was Andrew Luck's 7th game - winning drive of the season , tying an NFL record - not just a rookie record .
Peyton Manning did it twice .
Incredibly , if Luck leads a game winning drive next week in a very winnable game for the Colts , he would have the NFL record all to himself - as a rookie .
Added to that fact is that the Colts are 8 - 1 in games decided by one score or less - the only loss coming in week 3 on that last - minute 80 yard touchdown pass by the Jaguars after Luck had led another go - ahead scoring drive late in the 4th quarter .
Chuck Pagano returns tomorrow .
What a moment that will be tomorrow when Pagano walks into the locker room and is handed the head coaching reigns once again .
And what a moment that will be next Sunday when he takes the field for the first time since week 3 .
Colts nation has supported him all the way , as has the NFL .
Next Sunday , the division rival Houston Texans come to Lucas Oil Stadium having never won in Indy .
This is a game that before the season I even thought the Colts would win - back when I thought they would get 7 wins all year .
They can beat the Texans , and with Pagano coming back , that will be a special game .
Great job , Bruce Arians .
Tremendous .
Now my piece of advice to the Colts - don't stop being Chuckstrong .
Pagano certainly won't . |

Basically , however , the whole defense stunk today .
The Colts gave up 507 total yards , 352 of them on the ground .
It was the worst run defense I have seen the Colts play since that now infamous debacle in Jacksonville in 2006 .
Simply must improve .
That said , the Colts won the turnover battle 3 - 0 over the Chiefs .
Darius Butler picked off a terrible Brady Quinn throw and took it back 32 yards for a score .
It was Butler's 4th pick of the year and the 2nd one he returned for a touchdown .
Pat Angerer also forced a big fumble with the Chiefs in the red zone and threatening that led to 3 points for the Colts before the half .
And then the 3rd turnover was a pick by Vontae Davis .
When you have a +3 turnover differential , you are going to win most games .
It will be huge if the Colts could keep that up .
The wide receivers really didn't help out Andrew Luck today .
They dropped several passes ( Reggie Wayne included ) and failed to get open numerous other times .
While it looked like a bad game from Luck , I place more of the blame on the receivers in this one .
Nothing was open .
However , on the final drive , once Reggie Wayne started getting involved , the Colts started rolling .
On the last drive he caught 3 passes for 37 yards and a touchdown .
Prior to that he had caught 2 passes for 44 .
The key was that once the Colts got Reggie involved , good things happened .
This game was Andrew Luck's 7th game - winning drive of the season , tying an NFL record - not just a rookie record .
Peyton Manning did it twice .
Incredibly , if Luck leads a game winning drive next week in a very winnable game for the Colts , he would have the NFL record all to himself - as a rookie .
Added to that fact is that the Colts are 8 - 1 in games decided by one score or less - the only loss coming in week 3 on that last - minute 80 yard touchdown pass by the Jaguars after Luck had led another go - ahead scoring drive late in the 4th quarter .
Chuck Pagano returns tomorrow .
What a moment that will be tomorrow when Pagano walks into the locker room and is handed the head coaching reigns once again .
And what a moment that will be next Sunday when he takes the field for the first time since week 3 .
Colts nation has supported him all the way , as has the NFL .
Next Sunday , the division rival Houston Texans come to Lucas Oil Stadium having never won in Indy .
This is a game that before the season I even thought the Colts would win - back when I thought they would get 7 wins all year .
They can beat the Texans , and with Pagano coming back , that will be a special game .
Great job , Bruce Arians .
Tremendous .
Now my piece of advice to the Colts - don't stop being Chuckstrong .
Pagano certainly won't . |
