Bengals turn Colts fumble into touchdown

INDIANAPOLIS -- Rudi Johnson ran 12 yards through the middle of the Indianapolis defense for the tying touchdown with 6:49 left in the second quarter.

The possession was set up by a fumble punt by Colts return man Terrence Wilkins. Ethan Kilmer was on coverage of the muffed punt, and Tony Stewart receover at the 25-yard line. On third and seven from the 22, wide receiver Reggie McNeal lined up in the shotgun, faked a handoff into the line and ran around right end for eight yards.

Johnson has 13 rushes for 64 yards against the NFL's worst run defense.

Bengals right tackle Willie Anderson has left the game with a right foot injury. His return is questionable. Stacy Andrews played the entire touchdown drive at right tackle. The Bengals are playing with three backup lineman -- including both tackles -- in the game because of injuries to starters.

We haven't blitzed once that I remember and are giving Manning 7 yards on every play.
