INDIANAPOLIS — Recently signed Josh Freeman and Ryan Lindley each threw one touchdown pass in the first half Sunday, and Jerrell Freeman scored on a 23-yard interception in the second half to lead Indianapolis past Tennessee 30-24.
But not into the playoffs.
The Colts (8-8) won their last two games to avoid the first losing season since 2011, but didn't get the help they needed — a Houston loss and seven other games to go the right way -- to make the postseason.
Josh Freeman was 15 of 28 for 149 yards and one interception while running Indy's regular offense.
