INDIANAPOLIS - Coach Gus Bradley watched Jacksonvilles defence go punch-for-punch with the NFLs best offence Sunday.He cringed as the Jaguars offence essentially threw in the towel.Hours after attending the birth of his new daughter, T.Y. Hilton broke open the game with a 73-yard touchdown pass to lead the Colts to a 23-3 win over the reeling Jags.The defence did a hell of a job. They put us in great position, receiver Cecil Shorts III said after finishing with one receptions for six yards. This ones on the offence. It comes down to execution.The Jags (1-10) certainly had chances Sunday.They forced six fumbles and recovered three. They sacked Andrew Luck five times in the first half, the most times Luck has been put on the ground all season. They held the Colts to 148 total yards in the first half and kept them out of the end zone until early in the third quarter.But on a day the offence was stonewalled, Jacksonville never really had a chance to end its losing streak. The Jags have lost four straight overall and five straight against Indy (7-4).Blake Bortles was 15 of 27 for 146 yards with one interception. The Jags rushed 23 times for 80 yards, finished with 194 total yards, their second-lowest output this season, and scored their only points on a 28-yard field goal that capped a 2-yard drive after Luck lost a fumble at his own 12-yard line.We had kind of a motto this week, to go 12 for 80. It was that 12-play, 80-yard drive, Bradley said. That was the mindset: No mistakes, no holding calls. Lets play good, solid football. Thats whats frustrating. We didnt do that.Jacksonvilles top performance came from Chris Clemons, who had three sacks and a forced fumble — all in the first quarter.But it was Hilton who claimed the starring role after speeding from a nearby hospital to Lucas Oil Stadium and pulling into the stadium just 75 minutes before kickoff.The 5-foot-9, 178-pound receiver wound up catching four passes for 122 yards to top the 1,000-yard mark for the second straight season. And after the long score drew the loudest roar of the day, he celebrated with perhaps the most touching moment of the NFL weekend by rocking the football to sleep. Andrew Luck called it cute.When I was out there, I wanted it to be special, Hilton said. I was going to play every play for her— just give it my all. When I get back to the hospital I will take her the football.Hilton was special. The rest of the Colts offence, not so much.Luck finished 21 of 32 for 253 yards with the TD pass and ran eight times for 49 yards. But he was sacked five times, fumbled three times and lost two, all in the first half. He also came up 47 yards short of tying Drew Brees NFL record for consecutive 300-yard games. Lucks streak ended at eight.Running back Daniel Boom Herron started in place of Trent Richardson and carried 12 times for 65 yards, but lost a fumble at the Jaguars 7-yard line.Even Mr. Reliable, Reggie Wayne, struggled, catching three passes for 10 yards.But with Hilton cranked up and running hard, the Colts won for the seventh time in nine games and extended their winning streak against AFC South foes to 11.We know the easiest way to get into the tournament is to win our division, Pagano said.After Adam Vinatieris 20-yard field goal gave Indy a 6-3 halftime lead, Indy righted itself in the second half.Richardson scored on a 1-yard run midway through the third quarter to make it 13-3. Less than two minutes later, Hilton beat Dwayne Gratz for the 73-yard catch-and-run to make it 20-3. Vinatieris 32-yard field goal finished it.I was coming here and thought What could I do? Hilton said. Once I got (the touchdown) I quieted the crowd and rocked the baby to sleep.Notes: Vinatieris three field goals pushed him into fifth place on the NFLs career list with 472, one ahead of former teammate Matt Stover. ... Cecil Shorts III, the Jags second-leading receiver, had one catch for six yards.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Air Max 97 Clearance .

Juventus clinched its 30th league title the day before when second-place Roma lost 4-1 at Catania. There was little excitement on the pitch at Juventus Stadium until Simone Padoin scored against his former club to break the deadlock and keep Antonio Contes side on course to become the first Serie A club to reach the 100-point barrier. Juventus, which has won all 18 of its home matches, has 96 points, and it visits Roma on Sunday before ending the campaign at home to Cagliari. The only worry for Juventus fans will be coach Antonio Conte hinting at a possible departure at the end of the season. "I will speak with the club and we will make the right assessments," Conte said. "It has been three intense years, I have to thank the lads for what they have done. Even tonight they went out there with the desire to win. That mentality, which I have transmitted to the lads, is my greatest merit. "Its not easy to improve on what we have done these past few years. I have to understand if I have the strength to continue ..." Chances were few and far between before Padoin scored in the 72nd minute. The midfielder, who spent five years at Atalanta, drilled in a low shot off the inside of the left post after Carlos Tevez flicked on Paul Pogbas pass. Tevez should have scored his 20th goal of the season with the last kick of the game but the Argentina striker fired wide of an empty net after bbeing unselfishly set up by Fabio Quagliarella.dddddddddddd It mattered little, and the final whistle blew moments later to spark joyful scenes of celebration on the pitch and back in the dressing room. "We have been celebrating for more than 24 hours," Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci said. "But we arrived on the pitch with the right attitude and continued our incredible run. Making Juve history isnt easy and the way weve done it is even harder. Juve hasnt won three successive league titles since the 30s, it was right to celebrate, and were really enjoying the moment." Earlier, Lazio scored a stoppage-time penalty to rescue a 3-3 draw at home to Hellas Verona as the clubs saw their Europa League hopes diminish. The clubs are level on points, a point behind Parma and AC Milan, and two behind Torino, which occupies the last European spot. Substitute Romulo thought he scored the winner for Verona seven minutes from time as he was left unmarked to tap home Emil Hallfredssons cross with Lazio goalkeeper Etrit Berisha stranded. But Lazio was awarded a penalty when Michelangelo Albertazzi clipped Miroslav Kloses heels. Albertazzi was sent off, joining Lazios Senad Lulic, who was shown a straight red card minutes earlier for an awful challenge on Juan Manuel Iturbe. Stefano Mauris penalty was saved by Rafael, but the Lazio captain fired the rebound into an empty net. Verona twice fought back, with equalizers from Marquinho and Iturbe after goals from teenage forward Keita Balde and Lulic saw Lazio go in front twice. ' ' '
