Indianapolis Colts coach Chuck Pagano has completed his final round of chemotherapy for leukemia and could be back on the sideline by for the team's Dec. 30 game, his doctor said Tuesday night. "I'm fully supportive and I have my fingers crossed that he'll be there on the sideline if that's where he wants to be," Dr. Larry Cripe of IU Health Simon Cancer Center told the Indianapolis Star. "Things are going well," he said. "He's received all of the chemotherapy he was to receive. Now it's just a matter of over the next couple of weeks recovering back to health. He can start conditioning and moving towards what he wants to do, which is return to coaching." The Colts play host to the division rival Houston Texans in that season-ending game that could decide the AFC South or a playoffs spot. Cripe said the Colts and Pagano will decide together if he coaches. Pagano was diagnosed with leukemia Sept. 26 and has gone through three...

Week 14 power ranks: Andrew Luck carries the Indianapolis Colts over the Lions and into the top 10

The struggles of the Bears, Packers, Giants, 49ers and Ravens in recent weeks allows the Indianapolis Colts to make a legitimate push into the top 10. I remain skeptical of Indy’s true chances when January roles around (the 59-24 drubbing in New England is an indicator of how far they are behind the truly top shelf teams in the league) and their -41 point differential leaves much...

Hey! My first Andrew Luck headline pun! But truly, the change in the fortunes of the Indianapolis Colts has widely been attributed to rookie quarterback Andrew Luck, which is fine, because he has been very good so far. I think, however, that this ignores the overall success of the Colts as a team, and doesn’t reflect exactly how bad the quarterback situation was last season.

It’s fourth down. Your team is down by five. There’s four seconds on the clock. And it’s 14 yards to the end zone. Who do you want as your quarterback? Tom Brady? Peyton Manning? Andrew Luck? How many Colts fans would have picked our rookie quarterback at the beginning of the season? And now…after Sunday?
Andrew Luck is quickly becoming that quarterback. That quarterback...

Colts rookies trying to make most of 2nd chances
(Eds: Updates. With AP Photos.) By MICHAEL MAROT AP Sports Writer Andrew Luck is getting a crash course in rematch etiquette.
The man who seemingly did it all in college never played the same team twice in one season until he jumped to the NFL. On Sunday, he'll get a second chance at playing a team twice when Tennessee visits Lucas Oil Stadium.

Indianapolis Colts running back Donald brown has been ruled out for Week 14 because of an ankle injury. The Colts will continue to ride rookie back Vick Ballard. Brown was injured late during Sunday's contest against the Detroit Lions.

It’s official, the Andrew Luck hype mobile is going off the rails like a crazy train.
Luck has been impressive. And Luck can make throws on a football field that even Tom Brady and Peyton Manning would have a hard time completing. But, that does not automatically put him in their category, and that certainly does not make him an MVP candidate, as Adam Schein — who has a vote...
