T.Y. Hilton found the end zone for the Colts.

The Indianapolis Colts are playing without Andrew Luck, but they are still somehow winning games. Against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Lucas Oil Stadium, reserve quarterback Matt Hasselbeck was able to find T.Y. Hilton for what appears to be the final dagger in the contest.

Hilton came into the game with 45 catches and 724 yards along with three touchdowns. Te season has been disappointing considering general manager Ryan Grigson gave Hilton a five-year extension before the season began.

The Colts are moving to 6-5 on the season and are tied with the Houston Texans for first place in the AFC South, one of the worst divisions ever seen. Indianapolis also holds the tiebreaker on Houston since it beat it at NRG Stadium earlier in the campaign. The two teams still have one more meeting left, with the Colts playing host.

Luck is likely to remain out for at least another two weeks with a kidney injury, something that had many experts believing would be the end of the season. However, Indianapolis is rolling with Hasselbeck at the helm, rolling to five wins in as many starts. Hasselbeck, the oldest quarterback in the National Football League, has been able to get the job done.
