INDIANAPOLIS - Andrew Luck is eager to get right back to work. Miami Heat Jerseys .Rather than celebrate Sundays 26-10 win over Cincinnati, the Colts quarterback immediately explained he was moving on. And rather than engage in a discussion about another matchup with his predecessor, Peyton Manning, Luck focused on the big picture.Yes, the third-year quarterback is starting to sound like a seasoned playoff veteran.I think we face the Broncos, Luck said when asked about Round 3 with Manning. Its not the quarterback versus quarterback thing. Were not on the field at the same time. I have a lot of respect for him, what he does, what he still does is amazing. Hes a stud. Ill worry about the Denver defence, thats what I worry about.Thats a stark contrast to the Luck of the last two seasons.After a nine-game turnaround in 2012, they were the AFCs surprise playoff team and subsequently made a first-round exit. Last year, after Luck pulled off a 28-point comeback to beat Kansas City, the Colts were overjoyed. They wound up losing the next week.This year, Luck and the Colts (12-5) have adopted a business-like approach.Luck wound up 31 of 44 with 376 yards and finished a playoff game without a turnover for the first time. He also delivered the game-changing 36-yard TD pass as Carlos Dunlap took him to the turf.Now the Colts have bigger plans.If Luck beats the Broncos (12-4) on their home turf, something he failed to do in a 31-24 opening-week loss, Indy will face either New England (12-4) or Baltimore (11-6) in the AFC championship game. It wont be easy.Theyre a great football team and obviously theyve got a great, great quarterback, Colts coach Chuck Pagano said. Its always a huge challenge and at the same time, were going to embrace the opportunity, embrace the moment. Its exciting, its fun. Its always a great chess matchHere are some takeaways from Sundays game:IMPERFECT: While Luck played well, the Colts offence was not flawless. Daniel Boom Herron lost one of his two fumbles and Indy was called for nine penalties. Those are two problems that plagued the Colts in November and December. Receiver T.Y. Hilton also dropped a couple of passes that could have put the game away earlier than Adam Vinatieris two field goals in the final 16 1/2 minutes. Indy must be sharper at Denver.HISTORIC MISERY: Cincinnati became the first NFL team to lose four consecutive opening-round games. Andy Dalton tied Warren Moon for the most consecutive opening-round playoff losses (four) by a quarterback. Coach Marvin Lewis tied Marty Schottenheimer, Jim Mora and Steven Owen for most consecutive playoff losses (six) by a coach. Lewis also tied Mora, the former Colts coach, for most consecutive playoff losses to start a career, and tied Owen for most consecutive playoff losses with one team. Oh, and the Bengals (10-6-1) havent won a playoff game in 24 years.DE-FENSE: The Colts defence is often overlooked. But Indy has been playing well lately. Against a depleted Bengals offence, the Colts limited Jeremy Hill to 13 carries for 47 yards. Indy also dominated the second half, giving up just 98 total yards and five first downs to the Bengals.LOWERING THE BOOM: Despite the fumbles, Herron had a career day. He ran 12 times for 56 yards and scored on a 1-yard TD run while catching 10 passes for 85 yards. He has clearly supplanted Trent Richardson as the starter. Pagano said Richardson, who was almost invisible because an illness kept him out of practice Friday and Saturday, may have a bigger role next week.ROAD WOES: Struggles on the road are common in the playoffs. Luck is 0-2 in his career, Cincinnati is 0-7 all-time and Indy has lost its last three playoff games away from home. The Colts last win was 15-6 at Baltimore in January 2007, a game with no touchdowns that helped spur their championship run.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Gerald Green Jersey . - Ryan Spooner scored twice to lead the Boston Bruins to a 6-1 victory over the New York Islanders in a preseason game Friday night. Goran Dragic Jersey . As the Winnipeg Blue Bombers opened their main training camp Sunday, Kuale is one of the newcomers brought in to bolster a sagging defence that ranked overall where the Bombers finished 2013, in the CFL cellar with a league high 585 points against. http://www.basketballheatshop.com/Cheap-Edrice-Adebayo-Heat-Jersey/ . 3 seed Phillip Kohlschreiber from Germany. Defending champion Marin Cilic also reached the semifinals -- his fourth in Zagreb -- defeating fellow Croat Ivan Dodig. German qualifier Bjorn Phau beat Dudi Sela of Israel to reach his first semifinals in nearly five years.LONDON, Ont. -- All eyes were on Nazem Kadri. They were always going to be on Kadri. After signing a two-year contract with the Maple Leafs just before the start of training camp, Kadri responded with scoring Torontos first goal in a 4-3 pre-season win against the Philadelphia Flyers on Sunday. "I know I have to go out and play well in each and every game. It will be a long season and quite a grind," said Kadri, who starred in the Ontario Hockey League in the same Budweiser Gardens with the London Knights. Kadri and Mason Raymond each had one goal and an assist while Troy Bodie and Paul Ranger also scored for Toronto. Brayden Schenn and Nick Cousins set the pace for the Flyers with a goal and an assist apiece and Doug Clarkson also scored for Philadelphia, which trailed 3-0 before Clarksons goal. Performing in his hometown, it was Kadri opening the offence as the Leafs scored three in 3:05 to manufacture an early 3-0 advantage. Kadri began a two-on-one rush inside his own blue-line, used a drag move to awkwardly put Philadelphia defenceman Hal Gill out of position then snapped the puck past Steve Mason. "I had almost forgotten what its like to score in this building," said Kadri. Just 56 seconds after Kadri put the Maple Leafs on the scoreboard, Bodie, who split his AHL time between Portland and Norfolk last year and was signed as a free agent by Toronto in July, made it 2-0 by beating Mason in close. Bodie received his pass on the doorstep from 2013 first-round pick Frederik Gauthier. The third Toronto goal displayed the speed of Raymond, who is with the Leafs on a tryout basis after 374 games with the Vancouver Canucks. He scored short-handed on a breakaway after stealing the puck at his own blue-line and out-raced Philadelphias Erik Gustafsson down the right-wing side. "The puck hit his shin on the play," said Leafs head coach Randy Carlyle. "Raymond has the type of speed where its going to be hard for anyone to catch him." Philadelphia would rebound with three cconsecutive goals, including Clarkson in the first and two more from Schenn and Cousins in the second. Hassan Whiteside Jersey. After netminder changes by both clubs, Ranger welcomed Anthony Stolarz by converting a rebound on a give-and-go effort by Kadri and David Broll. In 28 minutes of work, Toronto starter Reimer stopped 14 of 17, while counterpart Mason stopped 12 of 15. The Maple Leafs Christopher Gibson didnt allow a goal in 32 minutes and was credited with 13 saves, while Stolarz was beaten in his first minute, but settled down to make 14 saves on 15 shots. Carlyle was quick to point out post-game that there is a large difference between the first exhibition game and the regular NHL pace. "I would give this game an overall average grade. We are trying to establish some of the staples of a hockey system here," he said. "It is interesting to watch how some players separate themselves from the rest of the group. "The NHL plays at another level and you cant make some of the mistakes we did tonight in certain areas of the ice." Six former or current Knights dressed including Kadri, Dave Bolland and Ryan Rupert for Toronto, and Mason, Stolarz and Zac Rinaldo for the Flyers. After winning a Stanley Cup with Chicago earlier this year -- and a Memorial Cup with the Knights in 2005 -- Bolland was traded to Toronto at the June draft table. On Sunday, he started the game alongside current Knight and Leafs draftee Ryan Rupert. "Ryan has been working very hard and doing all the right things," said Bolland. "He is on the right track to a pro hockey career. If he continues to do all the things the Hunters (London coach and president Dale and general manager Mark) say that will also go a long way in helping his career." These two clubs meet again on Monday at Air Canada Centre in Toronto as the Leafs tune-up schedule includes eight games over 14 days before opening the regular season Oct. 1 in Montreal. The Flyers open their official schedule versus Toronto at home on Oct. 2.
