Wayne Has Career-High 12 Catches

Colts wide receiver Reggie Wayne had a career-high 12 catches in the team's victory over the 49ers.

The win marked the team's 16th straight regular-season triumph. Unlike many of their wins this season, the Colts beat the 49ers by a narrow margin of 18-14.

Wayne (groin) had 12 receptions for 147 yards with a touchdown.

Interestingly, Wayne scored the game-winning touchdown in the fourth quarter on a pass from Joseph Addai, not Peyton Manning. Wayne missed a couple of practices during the week, but his status for Sunday's game was never truly in doubt. He should be fine moving forward.

"We need these games if we're going to push toward our goal, which is the Super Bowl," Wayne said. "We're going to need these close games, we're going to need to fight through a little adversity and push forward. We were able to do that today. It was a grinder. We figured out a way to win."
