The secondary also generated two crucial turnovers late in the game to help seal the win. They’ve been outscored 79-3 in the second halves of those three games.

Kobe Bryant Comments on Decision Not to Play Overseas After NBA Retirement
Olajwon’s selection is interesting as he played center, while Bryant has spent most of his career at the shooting guard position. Bryant sat in street clothes on the Lakers’ bench while Durant and Westbrook quickly took control for Oklahoma City.

Should the Colts turn to Whitehurst to lead the offense in the final two weeks of the season as Indianapolis tries to claw its way back into the AFC South lead?
Delhi Odd-even formula: Who all are exempted by Kejriwal govt
The government plans to run 6,000 more buses to accommodate the potential spurt in passengers who can’t drive their cars on a day. Almost 10 lakh private cars are expected to stay off Delhi roads, on a daily basis, once the odd-even formula is enforced.
The South has always earned a reputation for being mediocre, especially considering that only the Colts and Texans have been mildly competitive in recent seasons. The Kansas City Chiefs are just one game back of the Denver Broncos after starting 1-5. Over at the NFC, there are four teams that have already secured a playoff spot (Carolina, Arizona, Green Bay, and Seattle), with the Vikings being all but certain of taking the second Wild Card, and only the slow drag to “crown” an NFC East champion between the Giants, Redskins, and Eagles resembling a true playoff race. O’Brien also said he’s uncertain whether Brian Hoyer, the regular starter, will return from a concussion.
“He’s a pro, he acts like a pro, he carries himself like a pro, he is a pro”, coach Bill O’Brien said.

John McClain of the Houston Chronicle first reported the injury. “Look, I’m not sure he has the whole offense down pat, but I think he has enough that he can go in there and function”.
Pass rush: The Colts have been berated mercilessly for the lack of heat generated on quarterbacks.
A tip for any defensive coach looking to fix a struggling secondary: play against T.J. Yates and Brandon Weeden and things will improve instantaneously.
After Sunday’s injury, it’s not unrealistic to think Yates may have taken his last National Football League snap. Weeden, who made three starts for Dallas earlier this season and lost all of them, came in for Houston just a month after being signed following his release by the Cowboys.
In seven games this season, Luck has completed 55.3% of his passes, throwing for 1,881 yards, 15 touchdowns and 12 interceptions.
