INDIANAPOLIS -- Indianapolis picked a poor time to have a bad game. Tyrell Williams Jersey . The Colts missed an opportunity to seize control of the AFC South, show a prime-time TV audience theyre a legitimate title contender and now have to prepare for Peyton Manning and the unbeaten Broncos on a short week. Good luck, right? Chuck Pagano thinks it could be a perfect remedy for Indianapolis ills. "I know it cant come quickly enough for all of us," Pagano said Tuesday when asked about Sundays game. "But weve got to go through the process and prepare, obviously, for this next opponent." Sure, theres plenty to fix between now and the leagues most anticipated game of the season -- Mannings return to Lucas Oil Stadium. And after Monday nights 19-9 loss, the Colts coaches will use every precious moment they have. The cramming session began after an early morning flight back to Indy. Pagano and his staff spent the first part of the day reviewing the tape from their latest stumble in San Diego. It didnt take long to dissect the offence with what Pagano described as only 42 "gradable" plays. They saw four drops including potential scores from Darrius Heyward-Bey and Coby Fleener and a big drop by Reggie Wayne on third down that would have given Indy a key first down. Luck was sacked once, threw a late interception and was under pressure much of the night, and Indy ran only 17 times for 74 yards. Thats not how these Colts (4-2) were built. Yet the biggest problem came on third down. Indy converted only 2 of 10 chances. San Diego (3-3) was 7 of 14. The combination led to a 17-minute disparity in time of possession -- an oddity for a team that came into the weekend with the leagues No. 4 rushing offence. "It was different. It certainly was uncharacteristic of us," Pagano said. "I just think, you can point your finger to a lot of things -- didnt execute well, obviously, third down was an issue on both sides of the ball, which led to the time of possession issue and all those type of things. "Three third downs on defence where you have penalties that extend drives by four plays, five plays, nine plays, lead to 10 points, thats shooting yourself in the foot. Talked about the dropped passes, which are totally uncharacteristic of our guys. We had opportunities, we had chances." They just couldnt convert. Indy cant afford a repeat this week against Manning and the high-scoring Broncos (6-0). Denver averages 44.2 points per game, a pace that would shatter the NFLs single-season scoring record set by New England during its perfect 2007 regular season (589). One way to combat the Broncos is to steal a page from San Diegos game plan by keeping the ball on the ground and out of Mannings hands. But Indy has to find other solutions and fast. The Colts have been credited with eight drops over the previous two weeks, and the slow starts are becoming a disturbing trend. At San Diego, the Colts settled for field goals on the first and last drives of the first half. The previous week against Seattle, they fell into a 12-0 deficit after opening the game with three straight three-and-outs. Give Manning an opening like that, and its game over as players such as Wayne know all too well. But the Colts have been one of the leagues most resilient teams since Paganos arrival. They went from 2-14 in 2011, when Manning missed the season with a nerve injury, to 11-5 under Luck last season -- tied for the second-greatest one-season improvement in league history. They did that as Pagano spent most of the season battling cancer. Indy still has not lost two straight under Pagano, a streak they kept intact by winning at defending NFC champion San Francisco in Week 3, and they have won nine of their past 10 home games. Theyve just never had to rebound on a short week. "Again, Sunday cant come quick enough," Pagano said. "You play a West Coast game on Monday night, you deal with it as things come. Well put a plan together and get these guys back, get some guys back hopefully and get them healthy and recharged and all those type of things and, hopefully, get ready to play a good ball game on Sunday night." Tre Boston Jersey . Alfredo Simon lowered his ERA to 0.86, and the Reds beat the Chicago Cubs 4-1 Friday for their 16th win in their last 17 games at the Friendly Confines. Brandon Mebane Jersey .C. -- Ryan Sproul scored the winner late in double overtime to lift the Grand Rapids Griffins to a 2-1 win over the Abbotsford Heat on Friday in Game 1 of their American Hockey League playoff series. http://www.chargersprofansshop.com/Customized.html?cat=903 . His stated reason for abruptly resigning as head coach of Canadas Olympic womens hockey team was he felt there were doubts about his ability to coach the team to Olympic gold in February. PHOENIX -- Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Eric Chavez announced his retirement Wednesday, ending his 17-year major league career at the age of 36. The left-handed hitting infielder, on the disabled list since June 9 because of a sprained left knee, spent 13 seasons with the Oakland Athletics, two with the New York Yankees and was in his second season with Arizona. Chavez won six AL Gold Gloves from 2001-2006. In 1,615 career regular-season games, he hit .268 with 260 home runs and 902 RBIs. This season, he hit .246 with three homers and eight RBIs in 69 at-bats. Chavez appeared in 1,402 games at third base, 21 at first base, five at shortstop and two in left field. He had a career .970 fielding percentage at third base and was the 2002 AL Silver Slugger winner at the position. He was selected by Oakland in the first round of the 1996 draft out of Mount Carmel High School in San Diego and made his major league debut for the As inn 1998. Casey Hayward Jersey. Texas manager Ron Washington was a longtime coach in Oakland and was the Athletics infield instructor. He was there when Chavez made his debut as a 20-year-old late in the 1998 season, and for eight more seasons after that. Chavez later gave Washington one of his Gold Gloves and inscribed it, "Wash, not without you." "He had a tremendous career. Eric Chavez was smart, he was a class act and he was a pro, he was great teammate," Washington said before Wednesday nights game against the Yankees. "I was asked one time if I thought Eric could ever win a Gold Glove. I said it was up to Eric if wants to win a Gold Glove. And he won his first Gold Glove, then he won five more, and his back went out. Thats the kind of player he was," he said. "He had power, he could hit for average, smart on the basepaths. He was good. ... He was a special player, he really was."
