CLEVELAND

Andrew Luck came through when it mattered most.

Bottled up all afternoon by Cleveland’s defense, Luck threw a 1-yard touchdown pass to T.Y. Hilton with 32 seconds left, rallying the Indianapolis Colts to a 25-24 win on Sunday over the Browns.

Luck was contained by the Browns until the final minutes, when he directed the Colts (9-4) on a winning 90-yard drive.

But before Luck connected with Hilton, Colts running back Daniel Herron picked up 2 yards on critical fourth down to keep the drive going. Luck, who threw two interceptions and spent the day being harassed by an energized Browns defense, then fired his second TD pass to Hilton.

The Colts trailed 21-7 in the third quarter, but stormed back behind Luck, who finished 24 of 53 for 294 yards.
