Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson capped his return to the starting lineup with a game-winning touchdown.

Richardson ran for a four-yard score with 46 seconds left in Sunday’s game at MetLife Stadium and Kwity Paye sacked Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers twice to run out the final seconds of a 28-27 Colts victory. The win snaps a three-game losing streak for Indianapolis and keeps them at 5-6 in the playoff hunt. Getting back to .500 will require beating the Lions at home next Sunday, but Richardson’s play gave some hope they could do that.

Richardson ran for another touchdown in the first half and was 20 of 30 for 272 yards and a touchdown through the air. He completed three of those passes for 62 yards on the game’s final drive and the Colts made some big plays through the air after weeks of offensive frustration.

Richardson lost a fumble on a Jamien Sherwood sack early in the third quarter and the Jets were able to contain Jonathan Taylor, but the defense struggled to get off the field in the fourth quarter as the Colts drove 70 yards for touchdowns on their last two possessions.

They also failed to pick up a first down on their first five possessions, so there were issues on both sides of the ball. Aaron Rodgers would throw a pair of touchdowns as the Jets went from 13-0 to a 24-16 lead, but the Jets had to settle for a field goal in the red zone in the fourth quarter and their final drive was the kind of mess they have put them on the field far too often this season.

It’s a bye week for the 3-8 Jets as they return to take on the Seahawks in Week 13.
