Indianapolis 23, Jacksonville 13

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 21 (UPI) -- Peyton Manning tossed two second-half touchdown passes to Reggie Wayne Sunday to lead Indianapolis to a 23-13 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Manning has been waiting for Wayne, a first-round draft pick in 2001, to emerge as another weapon with Marvin Harrison in one of the NFL's top offenses.
