EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Boys just want to have fun.Andrew Luck certainly didnt have any when he sat out a Thanksgiving night loss with a concussion. He made up for it very nicely Monday night in a 41-10 romp past the inept New York Jets.To get back out there and do some decent things, thats fun, Luck said after throwing for four touchdowns, three to Dwayne Allen. Sitting out is no fun.Not that Luck had to work very hard against the hosts, who were booed by a much-less-than-filled MetLife Stadium almost from the outset.Luck missed last weeks loss to Pittsburgh, cleared the NFLs concussion protocol on the weekend, and came back in style with a prime-time performance. He lifted Indianapolis (6-6) into a tie for the lead in the AFC South with Tennessee and Houston.The quarterback was outstanding, coach Chuck Pagano said. Its always great to have your starting quarterback under center.Allen and T.Y. Hilton were his main targets as he went 22 of 28 for 278 yards, and they received little opposition from the Jets (3-9).It was a great night for everyone, Allen said. You hope that every night you go to play, its a night like that. Its not realistic in the National Football League.This one couldnt have come easier for Indianapolis. The Colts toyed with the lifeless Jets from the beginning, when New Yorks Jeremy Ross got to only his 11-yard line with the opening kickoff return. A three-and-out gave Luck the ball, and seven plays later, he hit a wide-open Allen for a 7-0 edge.Indy needed only four plays on its next series, with Allen even more open for a 21-yard reception to make it 14-0. At that juncture, the Colts had gained 120 yards, the Jets 6.I cant put my finger on it, but it has made a big difference, Luck said of getting out quickly. To be up 7-0 (immediately) means a lot.Those yardage figures wound up 421 to 250. Indy scored its most points since Week 13 of 2014; the Jets allowed their most since Week 8 of that season.The Jets (3-9) finally found some spark after Pat McAfees punt was downed at their 3. Matt Forte turned a short pass into a 40-yard gain with a nasty move on Rashaan Melvin, but that drive stalled and Nick Folk made a 38-yard field goal.That temporarily quieted the boobirds in the stadium. But Luck hit Hilton for 23 yards on Indys next play, Gore ran for 19 and Adam Vinatieri kicked a 53-yard field goal to make it 17-33.ddddddddddddAnd when Allen set a career best with this third TD reception on a perfect 23-yard throw from Luck, the rout was on.Its never easy and you cant ever take your foot off the gas and relax and say, `We got this, Pagano said.Donte Moncrief added a 3-yard touchdown, the sixth straight game he has caught one. Hilton continually victimized cornerback Darrelle Revis and other Jets DBs, making nine catches for 146 yards. Hilton went over 1,000 yards for the fourth time in his five pro seasons.New York has lost four in a row and is 1-5 at home. Its performance Monday night cant be of any help to coach Todd Bowles, who led the Jets to a 10-6 mark a year ago in his first season in charge.I thought for the first time this year, we got our (butt) handed to us, Bowles said.MISSED OPPORTUNITYThe Colts barely missed being up 31-3 at the half. Jack Doyle lost the ball while reaching for the pylon late in the second quarter, resulting in a touchback.WHOS THE QB?Bowles replaced Ryan Fitzpatrick (5 for 12, 81 yards, one interception) with Bryce Petty to start the second half. Didnt matter at all as Petty went 11 for 25 for 135 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. He will start the final four games, the coach said.VP IN THE HOUSEVice President-elect Mike Pence was a guest of Jets owner Woody Johnson. He didnt see much of a game.MOMENT OF SILENCEThe Jets held a moment of silence before the game to honor former running back Joe McKnight, killed last Thursday in Louisiana. Authorities said McKnight, 28, was shot during a road rage incident.McKnight had a 107-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in 2011, and it stands as the longest play in Jets history.INJURIESColts: LB DQwell Jackson left in the fourth quarter with a concussion. RG Denzelle Good also sustained a concussion.Jets LB Julian Stanford hurt his ankle in the third quarter and S Antonio Allen sustained a concussion in the final period. C Nick Mangold returned from a four-game hiatus because of a sprained ankle, but aggravated it.UP NEXTThe Colts host Houston in a first-place division showdown. We know how big that game is, Luck said.The Jets visit San Francisco (1-11).---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
