KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Andrew Luck threw for 205 yards to break the single-season rookie record, and his touchdown pass to Reggie Wayne late in the fourth quarter Sunday gave the Indianapolis Colts a 20-13 win over the Kansas City Chiefs and a berth in the playoffs.
Luck surpassed Cam Newton’s year-old record of 4,051 yards passing by a rookie in the second quarter, and then came through in the closing minutes. He marched Indy to the Chiefs 7, and then found Wayne in the back of the end zone on third-and-goal for the go-ahead score.
It was the seventh time Luck has rallied his team to victory in the fourth quarter. Darius Butler returned an interception 32 yards for a TD in helping the Colts (10-5) join the 2008 Miami Dolphins as the only NFL teams to win at least 10 games after losing 14 or more the previous season.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Car owners who had to abandon their stuck or stranded vehicles over the last few days can now get them towed. The Iowa State Patrol says it has lifted the prohibition on towing for most of the state’s interstate highways and other state roads. The patrol says arrangements should be made to safety remove cars in a ditch or along the shoulder of a state highway or interstate through a licensed tow operator. If conditions on a particular roadway or in a specific region of the state deteriorate again the prohibition could be reinstated. The patrol also advises car owners to contact local law enforcement to verify if towing is allowed on county roadways, or roads and streets.
