RB Marlon Mack rushed for 119 yards for his fourth 100-yard game this season. That’s the most since Joseph Addai had four in 2007.

Adam Vinatieri – Noteworthy
K Adam Vinatieri, who turned 46 last week, became just the fourth NFL player to play at age 46 or older. A 53-yard field goal was the 43rd of his career from 50-plus yards, moving him into fourth on the league’s all-time list.

Andrew Luck – Noteworthy
QB Andrew Luck tied an NFL record with Sunday night’s touchdown pass to tight end Ryan Hewitt, the 13th different player to catch a scoring pass from him this season.

Darius Leonard – Noteworthy
LB Darius Leonard, a second-round selection, finished his rookie regular season with a franchise-record 163 total tackles, 19 more than the next player in the league. He added his second interception on Sunday night and contributed seven sacks this season.

Eric Ebron – Noteworthy
TE Eric Ebron, in his first season with the Colts after four in Detroit, earned his first Pro Bowl nod after posting career highs with 66 receptions for 750 yards and 14 total touchdowns (13 receiving, one rushing).

T.Y. Hilton – Noteworthy – Injury
WR T.Y. Hilton, hobbled by a sore ankle for the past month, has a league-best 951 receiving yards since Week 8 and is the only pass catcher to average more than 100 receiving yards with 105.7 during that stretch. Noticeably hampered by the ankle at Tennessee, he had two catches for 61 yards, the first time since Week 8 he didn’t have at least 77 receiving yards.
