Mini Spiele » didnt last long -- Gerbe put Ca

INDIANAPOLIS -- This time, Ryan Tannehill was the one celebrating in Indianapolis. And Miamis defence had Andrew Luck fuming. The Dolphins second-year quarterback matched his counterpart virtually throw-for-throw Sunday. Tannehill did a better job managing his teams offence in the second half and cheered his defence after it thwarted yet another Colts comeback bid to hold on for a 24-20 victory. "Its nice to win and thats the important thing no matter who we are going against. Its nice to win," Tannehill said. "I think he (Luck) did a good job, I dont really know what his numbers were, but from what I saw, he did a great job of moving around the pocket, but the defence really stepped up and made a play when it counted." Tannehill was just better Sunday. It was a stark contrast from a year ago, when the two first-round draft picks met as rookies. Luck stole the show that day by throwing for an NFL rookie record 433 yards and two scores as he delivered a three-point win. In Sundays meeting, with a chance to show everyone how much he and the Dolphins (2-0) had progressed, Tannehill was the winner. While the two quarterbacks finished with similar numbers -- Tannehill was 23 of 34 for 319 yards and one touchdown, while Luck was 25 of 43 for 321 yards and one TD -- the difference came down to managing mistakes. Tannehill lost a third down fumble at his 39 in the third quarter, but all the Colts could get was a go-ahead field goal. Luck, however, stopped one fourth-quarter scoring chance by forcing a deep throw to Reggie Wayne that was picked off by Brent Grimes in the end zone. Luck had a chance to make amends after driving the Colts (1-1) to the Miami 23-yard line with 1:45 left in the game. Miami, however, forced three straight incompletions and refused to allow the suddenly elusive Luck to escape the pass rush on fourth down. All Tannehill had to do then was pick up one first down, kneel down once and shake hands with the guy hes been following since they were Texas high school stars. Luck, who has engineered eight fourth-quarter comebacks in 18 games, blamed himself for the loss. "I guess Im a little angry at myself," Luck said. "Again, credit to them, they put us in all these situations, but I feel like we are a better team than what we showed out there." The Dolphins, meanwhile, couldnt have been happier. They started fast, jumping to a 14-3 lead after two possessions, rallied twice and shut down the Colts when they needed, too. High-priced free-agent Mike Wallace was a little happier with his performance Sunday, finishing with nine receptions for 115 yards and one touchdown a week after making only one catch in his Miami debut. Lamar Miller averaged nearly 5 yards per carry, running 14 times for 69 yards and a touchdown. Charles Clay had five catches for 109 yards and only one carry -- a 1-yard TD run with 4:40 left in the third quarter, which turned out to be the games decisive score and stood up to a replay review. That, and a staunch defence late was enough for the Dolphins to hold on. "You have to be balanced to win football games. You cant really win a football game by just throwing the whole game," Wallace said. "You have to mix it up." The Dolphins didnt shy away from trading jabs, especially after Indy piled up 315 yards of offence in the first half, their highest first-half total in seven years. The Colts finished with 438 yards, but couldnt put Miami away after taking a 17-14 lead in the first half and a 20-17 lead early in the third quarter after Tannehills fumble. But Miami made all the big plays after that -- the 34-yard completion from Tannehill to Wallace that set up Clays rushing score, the third down conversions to keep Luck & Co. off the field and the two big fourth-quarter stops. "Our guys wanted to play them, we wanted to compete," Miami coach Joe Philbin said. "They were ready for a 60-minute game and we knew we would have to make some plays to win."

Neal scored at 1:03 of the extra session to lift the Penguins past the Hurricanes 4-3 on Friday night. NHL scoring leader Sidney Crosby had a goal, and Chris Conner and Deryk Engelland each scored in the third period. The Eastern Conference leaders rallied from one goal down in the third period and took a 3-2 lead -- only to let it slip away late in regulation before Neals goal in OT gave them their 13th win in 15 games. "Thats where our team has matured and changed, and I think we regrouped and didnt let it bother us," Neal said. "We come right back and get one." Neal, who also had two assists, ended it by beating Justin Peters with a wrist shot off a slick give-and-go from Jussi Jokinen -- the former Carolina forwards third assist. "When we got our third one, I felt pretty good about it," goalie Marc-Andre Fleury said. "Disappointed to give up that third goal, but it was nice to see (Neal) finish it up for us." Fleury stopped 31 shots in his 500th career game. "Marc was our best player tonight, for sure," coach Dan Bylsma said. Drayson Bowman scored with 2:29 left in regulation. Nathan Gerbe had a goal and an assist, Andrej Sekera scored and Peters finished with 22 saves for the Hurricanes. They let a third-period lead slip away for the second straight game. Carolina also lost its seventh in eight games with four coming in overtime, and fell 20 points behind the Penguins. "When you look back, you feel like you had a really good hockey game," Carolina coach Kirk Muller said. "Its during those first 60 minutes, we had some opportunities to capitalize, and when you dont, youre going to be in tight games and youve got to know how to play with the lead then. Its a very thin line of winning and losing. When you give up a couple of chances and they score, thats the difference." Engelland -- who was playing in his ffirst game since serving a five-game suspension for a check to the head of Detroits Justin Abdelkader -- put a hard shot past Peters with 6:45 left to give the Penguins a 3-2 lead.dddddddddddd But Bowman forced overtime when he slipped his late wraparound past Fleury. Engelland was one of a few Penguins making their return to the ice. They also got defenceman Brooks Orpik and forward Tanner Glass back from injuries. Orpik missed eight games with a concussion while Glass was out for the past month with a broken hand. The Penguins tied it at 2 at 1:58 of the third period when Conner slipped a backhand past Peters. That came after Carolina built a 2-1 lead following a wild end to the first period and start to the second. Sekera scored the games first goal in the final moments of the first period, beating both Fleury and the buzzer with a high backhand that was upheld by a brief review that determined that there were 1.3 seconds left. That came about a minute after the Penguins had a goal disallowed because the whistle blew before the puck crossed the line during a pile-up in front of Peters and defenceman Ron Hainsey. Crosby then tied it 16 seconds into the second when he slipped a backhand past Peters for his NHL-best 55th point. But the tie didnt last long -- Gerbe put Carolina back up 14 seconds later by converting on Alexander Semins hard shot. "You cant be afraid to have the lead and play," Muller said. "Youve got to keep playing the way you played the first two periods. You cant sit back. Thats what we tried to emphasize." NOTES: Penguins C Evgeni Malkin (lower-body injury) missed his sixth straight game, though he did take part in the teams morning skate. ... The Hurricanes activated G Anton Khudobin from injured reserve and assigned him to their AHL affiliate in Charlotte, and placed D Jay Harrison on IR with a concussion. ... Pittsburgh RW Pascal Dupuis will have surgery on his right anterior cruciate ligament and could miss the season, coach Dan Bylsma said before the game.
