Colts bounce back with big win over Giants

Colts quarterback Andrew Luck threw three of his four touchdown passes in the third quarter as Indianapolis humbled the New York Giants 40-24 in an NFL game.
It was a welcome turnaround for the Colts, who struggled last week after cornerback Vontae Davis departed their game against Pittsburgh, surrendering 522 yards and six touchdowns in a 51-34 loss to the Steelers.
Davis was back in action on Monday, shoring up a Colts defense that effectively stifled a Giants offense led by quarterback Eli Manning.
Manning finished 27-of-52 with most of his 359 yards coming with the game already out of reach in the fourth quarter.
Luck, meanwhile, added to his league-leading passing yardage total with 354 yards, taking his tally for the season to 3,085.
"To get a win is always good, especially on the road on Monday night against a very good Giants team," Luck said. "It wasn't pretty by any means. There are definitely things we can shore up, but it was a good fight by the guys and a big victory."
T.Y. Hilton caught three passes for 71 yards and a touchdown. Reggie Wayne had four receptions for 70 yards and a score and Dwayne Allen had four catches for 48 yards and a TD in the victory.
