Colts improve to 5-0 with 33-14 thrashing of Bucs

No Joseph Addai. No Marvin Harrison. No problem.

The Indianapolis Colts didn't skip a beat without two of their offensive stars, cruising to a 33-14 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They also were without three defensive starters, including safety Bob Sanders, but they had little problem staying unbeaten at 5-0.

Peyton Manning had a typically efficient game with two touchdown passes, while Kenton Keith and Anthony Gonzalez - filling in for Addai and Harrison - led the team in rushing and receiving, respectively. Keith ran for 121 yards and two TDs. Indy's defense held Tampa Bay to 177 yards, 17 on the ground...more
