ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- With Andrew Luck getting a break, backup quarterbacks Scott Tolzien and Stephen Morris teamed up in leading the Indianapolis Colts to a 19-18 preseason-opening win over the Buffalo Bills on Saturday night.The game wasnt without its late dramatics. Bills rookie third-stringer Cardale Jones nearly pulled out a comeback victory in the final seconds.Jones, who led Ohio State to the 2015 national championship, threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Jarrett Boykin as time expired.But Jones failed to pull out the win by throwing an incompletion while attempting a 2-point conversion.Tolzien, an offseason free-agent addition, shook off a slow start to produce two scoring drives in the first half. And then Morris, who was signed off Philadelphias practice squad in December, secured the win with a 57-yard touchdown pass to Chester Rogers with 10:42 remaining.Backup tight end Chris Gragg put the Bills ahead 9-0 over a 4:20 span in the first quarter.First he caused a safety by blocking Pat McAfees punt, which the punter swiped out of the end zone 6 1/2 minutes in. On Buffalos ensuing possession, Gragg caught a perfectly placed 19-yard fade pass from E.J. Manuel. Kicker Dan Carpenter hit a 37-yard field goal, but also missed a 53-yard attempt wide left in the fourth quarter.The Colts finally got an opportunity to open the preseason a week after they were supposed to face Green Bay in the Hall of Fame game. That game was canceled because of an unplayable field.Indianapolis had several reasons to not take any risks starting Luck. The field was slick after a pregame downpour. And there was also the prospect of the Colts revamped offensive line facing Rex Ryans attacking defense.Before the game, Colts owner Jim Irsay sent two tweets saying the team was holding out Luck until they returned to Indianapolis to play back-to-back home games. In the second post, he mentioned the rain, while also noting my good friend Rex isnt known for letting up in the preseason.The Colts are taking no chances after Luck missed the final seven games of last season with a lacerated kidney and a partially torn abdominal muscle. And Irsay invested heavily in Luck by signing him to a six-year $140 million contract extension last month.After the Colts offense managed 46 yards on their first six possessions, Tolzien hit Jordan Todman on a screen pass for a 42-yard touchdown. Tolzien then produced a five-play, 55-yard drive that ended with Adam Vinatieri hitting a 24-yard field goal to tie the game at 9 as the first half expired.INJURY UPDATEBills: DE IK Enemkpali was carted off late in the first half with what coach Rex Ryan called a major knee injury. Enemkpali hurt his right knee when his foot caught in the turf and he fell awkwardly while being blocked by Colts lineman Jonotthan Harrison.Colts: LB Sio Moore did not return after hurting his hamstring in punt return coverage early in the second quarter. RG Denzelle Good, starting in place of injured starter Hugh Thornton, did not return after hurting his knee in the first half.ROOKIE WATCHColts: First-round pick, C Ryan Kelly, struggled against the Bills pass rush up the middle. On the Colts second possession, Bills S Corey Graham and LB Preston Brown burst up the middle and forced Tolzien to rush a pass that was nearly intercepted.Bills: Sixth-round pick, DB Kevon Seymour, broke up a 2-point conversion attempt by stripping the ball out of the hands of WR Quan Bray in the right corner of the end zone. On the Colts next possession, Seymour was in perfect position to break up a pass attempt to Tevaun Smith in the end zone. On the next play, Seymour drew a pass interference penalty when he stumbled and tripped up Smith at the Bills 6.QB COMPARISONColts: Tolzien went 12 of 23 for 140 yards and a TD. Morris went 5 of 9 for 149 yards and a TD.Bills: Starter Tyrod Taylor played one series and finished 2 of 3 for 7 yards. Manuel went 10 of 18 for 91 yards. Jones went 11 of 21 for 162 yards and a TD.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFLSWell Bottles Nz .25 million option on reliever Jose Veras.

After taking two big hits this week -- losing at home and dropping back-to-back games for the first time all season -- Indiana struck back by playing its most complete game of the year.SPIELBERG, Austria -- Nico Rosberg hopes cool and mixed weather conditions ahead of Sundays Austrian Grand Prix will help him move forward from sixth on the grid.Rosberg qualified second in Austria, but was shuffled down the grid due to a gearbox change following an accident in final practice and will start sixth behind Daniel Ricciardo, Kimi Raikkonen, Jenson Button and Nico Hulkenberg. Both Mercedes drivers will start the race on the ultra-soft tyres, which suffered excessive degradation during the hot conditions in final practice on Saturday, while the Ferraris and Red Bulls will start on super-softs.But Rosberg thinks cooler conditions on Sunday -- the morning started wet but the track was drying during the GP2 race -- will play into his hands if the race is dry.Tomorrow is a big unknown because the temperature is expected to drop 12 degress, and then who knows how the tyres are going to behave in 12 degrees less track temperature? he said on Saturday night. We have to wait and see and maybe that unknown could be good for me starting sixth.Rosberg and Hamilton attempted to set a lap on super-softs during Q2 in order to start on the slightly harder rubber, but it was not quicker than their ultra-soft lap earlier in the seession and therefore they will start on the purple-striped tyre.ddddddddddddThe thinking migrated towards the belief that it could be good to get a time done on them and start the race on them, considering all the other competitors would be on super-softs. It was not expected that all of them would be on super-softs, we would expect a couple but not all.Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton, who starts from pole position, thinks Rosberg could struggle to overtake if the track stays dry.Overtaking the same speed car as you is not easy at all, he said. Its a downforce circuit, so its hard to stay close on the infield. I dont know whos ahead of [Rosberg] and behind me, so for example getting past a Williams or a Ferrari is not easy. Also the Red Bull, the power in a straight line is a lot different to last year.But he is very, very quick here and it feels like one of his strongest tracks going up against him and its one of my weakest. So considering Im on pole and its one of my weakest circuits, Im super happy about that. Ill try to do the job, but I know the guys behind me will do the best job they can do too. ' ' '
