Fast and furious and wet
MIAMI -- With rain falling straight down, the ball has been slippery in the first quarter.
Colts sure-handed holder Hunter Smith dropped a snap on an aborted extra point, after Peyton Manning had thrown 53 yards to Reggie Wayne for a touchdown on a broken play.
Then the Colts decided to squib the kickoff to keep it away from Devin Hester. Backup tight end Gabe Reid fielded the ball but fumbled when tackled. Former University of Cincinnati linebacker Tyjuan Hagler recovered the ball for the Colts. Then on Indianapolis' first play from the 34-yard line, Bears defensive end Alex Brown blew up a Manning handoff to Joseph Addai. Mark Anderson recovered.
Then Chicago's Thomas Jones broke loose on a 52-yard run to the Colts 5. On third and goal from the 4, Rex Grossman threw a touchdown pass to Muhsin Muhammad on a quick slant. Muhammad got inside cornerback Nick Harper, who is playing on a gimpy ankle.
