INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indianapolis Colts have a bad case of the terrible Ts.
Brady Tkachuk Senators Jersey .In Week 1, they couldnt tackle. In Week 2, they let two takeaways result in immediate touchdowns. And now, for the third consecutive season, those problems have left the Colts in a 0-2 hole.We had a lot of opportunities that we didnt take advantage of, coach Chuck Pagano said Monday, less than 24 hours after Indys 34-20 loss at Denver. Still at the end of the day, you get the ball back with 1:51 to play, you have a chance to go down the field and win the football game.Instead, Super Bowl MVP Von Miller has an almost free shot at Andrew Luck, knocks the ball loose and Shane Ray scoops it up for a 15-yard TD return. Game over, again.Of course turnovers are a point of emphasis in every NFL locker room.In Indianapolis, its something theyve made a concerted effort to fix since they started planning their offseason program.A year ago, Luck threw 12 interceptions and lost a fumble in just seven games and was on pace to easily shatter his previous career high for interceptions (18), set during his rookie season 2012.Through the first seven quarters of the season, Luck was virtually flawless taking care of himself and the ball.Hed thrown it away when necessary, slid when it was wise, ran out of bounds when possible and avoided making big mistakes.All that changed Sunday, with the Colts trailing 16-13 early in the fourth quarter. Luck took a chance by trying to squeeze the ball into Frank Gore only to see Aqib Talib undercut the route, pick it off and run 46 yards for a touchdown.After the game, it was one of the plays Pagano said the Colts would like to have had back and one Luck was still lamenting Monday.We had a chance in the fourth quarter to go and get a win and we didnt make it happen, he said. So credit to the Broncos for making it happen on their end. We just have to capitalize on more opportunities.While the Colts refused to let that momentum-swinging play take them completely out of the game, the miscues that followed certainly did.After trimming the deficit to 26-20, the Colts battered defense couldnt prevent Demaryius Thomas from stretching for a first down on third-and-11, forcing the Colts to burn their last two timeouts before giving the ball back to Luck and the offense, trailing 26-20.But with Miller running flat out, Luck never had a chance to set up or protect the ball before it was jarred loose.Obviously, the plan is dont let that guy wreck the game, Pagano said. We gave the help and did the things we were supposed to, and he made a phenomenal play, he made a great play. Thats why hes who he is.Now, after two miserable weeks of poring through game tape of what went wrong, Indianapolis is looking for solutions.The good news on defense is key players could return to practice Wednesday and could play next weekend San Diego (1-1). That group includes defensive end Henry Anderson (knee surgery), cornerbacks Vontae Davis (ankle) and Patrick Robinson (concussion) and safeties Clayton Geathers (foot) and T.J. Green (sprained right knee).Offensively, the Colts could try to explain that they were not at full strength against perhaps the best defense in football. Starting receiver Done Moncrief (shoulder) left in the first half and right guard Denzelle Good (back) left late in the game. Both are scheduled to have MRIs on Monday night.But thats not something the Colts will do.Nope, theyre going to back to work and trying to figure out how to clean things up by eliminating the turnovers.We had a chance sort of at the end of the game and we made just enough plays to hang in there against a very good team, Luck said. We didnt make the plays when it counted though.Game notes Pagano also said cornerback Antonio Cromartie (shoulder) should be all right and outside linebacker Trent Cole (back) will continue to be evaluated on a daily basis. Cornerback Darius Butler is listed as week to week with a grade 1 sprain of his right hamstring. ... Indy also made a change on its practice squad, releasing cornerback Tay Glover-Wright and signing outside linebacker Deiontrez Mount.---Online:AP NFL website:

Sky Sports News HQ chief football reporter Nick Collins said: Wayne Rooney, the captain, and Ryan Bertrand, the left-back, are not training and we are told that is because of minor issues. Now, we dont know whether that will rule them out of tomorrow nights game. I suspect it will not necessarily if theyre only minor issues. Bertrand last appearance in an England shirt came against Malta in October Having said that, its a key session, this one, if you want to play on the Tuesday, to miss Mondays session is usually quite significant.
Christian Jaros Jersey. #160;Those two are not here and, of course, Harry Kane has been released back to his club (Tottenham) but weve got a youngster called Dylan Duncan. Hes 17, hes a young Spurs midfielder and hes going to take part in this training session to help make up the numbers if you like. England are still fairly healthy in terms of numbers, but the squad was originally 25 for that reason, so England have had to make a couple of alterations. Gareth Southgate will feel he still has plenty of options ahead of the meeting against Spain.
