His trusty right foot has given the Indianapolis Colts three victories, all as time expired and all on the road, in their last nine regular-season games. Kicking the field goals, when you feel good about it, it's really not that big of a pressure. He's cocky and he knows what he's doing. He's not worried.

Vanderjagt welcomed the hugs he received from James and quarterback Peyton Manning . It's totally the opposite. I enjoy the fact that two big, huge names like Peyton Manning and Edgerrin James are counting on me to get them a win. As he walked onto the field for the game-winning try, he gave a nod to Bills backup quarterback Doug Flutie , his former holder when Vanderjagt kicked for the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League. I think he knew it, too, because we've had some big kicks together.
