INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — All week, Andrew Luck downplayed the significance of the Super Bowl reunion.
"You never want to go out and embarrass yourself in front of one of the all-time great Colts teams,Cheap Football Jerseys, so maybe there was a little edge from that matter," Luck said.
Luck led the Colts to touchdowns on each of their first three drives and got them into scoring position on the fourth drive, too. But Adam Vinatieri's streak of 44 consecutive field goals ended with a rare miss from 42 yards.
Vinatieri and Robert Mathis,Jerseys Wholesale, who had one sack, are the only Colts from the 2006 championship team still on Indy's roster.
But as Vinatieri and Mathis recall, that's exactly what was being said about the Super Bowl champs 10 years ago.

The Colts (5-5) pulled out all the tricks — running three plays out of the wildcat formation in the first two series, including one that looked like some version of an end-around. Luck wound up throwing to an uncovered Frank Gore for 49 yards.
Those two quarters were easily the most impressive of Indy's entire season.
"I never thought when I first started that I'd play 21 years-plus or whatever,Duke Johnson Jersey," said the 43-year-old Vinatieri, who atoned later by making a 49-yard field goal for the final points of the game. "I'm just very blessed and very happy that I'm still out here doing it."
"These guys are here to remind the (2016) team that you've got to believe,Ny Jets Jerseys For Sale," team owner Jim Irsay told the crowd, "because you never know when the miracle will happen."
While acknowledging it was a nice way for fans and former players to celebrate the good, old days, the Colts quarterback insisted it was never a big topic inside the locker room. After Sunday's 24-17 victory over Tennessee, Luck confessed it may have helped the Colts get jump-started.
