Last updated on Monday, October 22, 2018

(INDIANAPOLIS, IN) - The Indianapolis Colts snapped their four-game losing streak as the blew out the Buffalo Bills 37-5 on Sunday.

After throwing 164 passes in his last three games Andrew Luck got some much needed relief from the running game.

Marlon Mack gashed the Buffalo defense for 126 and a touchdown on the ground and also hauled in one of Luck's four touchdown passes and finished with 33 yards receiving. The Colts running game racked up 220 yards on the ground.

"When you run the ball really, really well, the byproduct is throwing the ball efficiently," Luck said.

Luck was extremely efficient as he completed 17 of 23 passes for 156 yards and four touchdowns. T.Y. Hilton made his presence known in his return as he caught four passes for 25 yards and two touchdowns.

The Colts defense was just as efficient, getting five turnovers and two sacks with Darius Leonard getting a game-high 12 tackles.

The Colts move to 2-5 and next visit the Oakland Raiders before their bye week.
