INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 16 (UPI) -- Peyton Manning led Indianapolis to two touchdowns in the final three minutes Sunday and the Colts beat New England 35-34.

Manning -- who was 28-of-44 passing for 327 yards and four TDs -- hit Reggie Wayne with a 1-yard scoring strike with 13 seconds left to complete the late comeback. The Patriots helped the Colts' cause when they failed to convert on a 4th-and-2 situation just ahead of the 2-minute warning.

Manning, who was intercepted twice in the game, used just four plays to lead the Colts (9-0) to the winning score.

Wayne finished with 10 catches for 126 yards and two touchdowns. Manning also threw touchdown passes to Pierre Garcon and Joseph Addai.

Tom Brady was 29-of-42 passing for 375 yards, three TDs and one interception for New England (6-3). Randy Moss had nine catches for 179 yards and two touchdowns for the Patriots.
