BALTIMORE, Sept. 12 (UPI) -- Peyton Manning threw two touchdown passes in the third quarter as Indianapolis rolled over Baltimore, 24-7, in their season opener.
Manning rebounded from an inconsistent first half to finish with 254 yards while completing 21 of 36 attempts. Edgerrin James compiled 88 rushing yards on 23 attempts for the Colts.
The Ravens, (0-1), had a dismal night. Baltimore turned the ball over four times, missed three field goals, and lost starting quarterback Kyle Boller for most of the second half.
Boller hyper extended his big right toe after being sacked by Larry Triplett with around five minutes to go in the third quarter and did not return. He hit on 15 of 23 pass attempts for 141 yards with one interception before the injury.
