Andrew Luck-led Colts rally to beat Lions 35-33

DETROIT (AP) ? Andrew Luck threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Donnie Avery with no time left to lift the Indianapolis Colts to a dramatic 35-33 comeback win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday.

With the final seconds ticking away, the rookie quarterback moved up in the pocket, flipped a short pass to Avery, and the receiver ran untouched into the end zone to complete a rally that started with Lions up 12 points midway through the fourth quarter.

The Colts (8-4) stayed in control of the AFC wild-card race with the win. Detroit (4-8) lost for the fourth straight time, including three in a row at home after leading in the final quarter.

Busy Philipps, Taye Diggs to announce SAG Award nominations

Mitt Romney can take some solace in his devastating loss on Nov. 6: at least he won the voters who really count. That's the thesis anyway of top adviser Stuart Stevens, who penned an op-ed in the Washington Post on Wednesday arguing that by winning wealthier and whiter voters, Romney secured the moral victory over Obama. "On Nov. 6, Mitt Romney carried the majority of every economic group except those with less than $50,000 a year in household income," Stevens wrote. "That means he carried the majority of middle-class voters. ...

A Delta flight operated by Pinnacle Airlines was set to land in Cincinnati on Saturday when it pulled up because of another plane that had not yet cleared the runway.

Wounded American tells of attack by Rome mob

Praxilla Trabattoni / NBC News

California native Nicholas Burnett, 20, stabbed in a pub in Rome where he was on his semester abroad studying at Temple University.

By Praxilla Trabattoni, NBC News

ROME -- An American college student suffered a foot-long stab wound and a punctured lung when a mob of up to 50 masked men armed with knives and baseball bats suddenly charged English soccer fans and others in a piazza in Italian capital Rome, he told NBC News.

Local media initially blamed Thursday's attack on hard core fans or ?Ultras? supporting soccer team Lazio -- who played English team Tottenham on Thursday -- but two fans of bitter rivals Roma were among a group of 15 detained for alleged involvement in attack, suggesting a different motive.

Witnesses told local media that the attackers shouted "Jews, Jews" as they laid siege to the bar in a district popular with tourists in an old quarter of Rome, raising fears of far-right, racist violence, Reuters reported.

Ten people were injured in the attack and 25-year old Ashley Mills, reportedly an English Tottenham supporter, was left in critical condition. Mills was still hospitalized on Friday, the wire service said.

Tried to run
Nicholas Burnett, 20, of Anaheim, Calif., told NBC News he was standing outside the bar with some friends when he saw ?40 to 50 storm into the piazza.?

At first, he said they looked "just like a bunch of guys wearing costumes," but the seriousness of the situation quickly became clear.

?Some were wearing helmets, others had scarves covering their faces and all of them were carrying weapons, of all sorts. Sticks, bats, wooden planks, some were swinging their thick belts with heavy buckles,? Burnett said.

?All of a sudden they started charging towards the bar. I tried to run away from them and one of the guys broke away from the crowd and took a swing at me over the head with what I though was a baseball bat,? he said.

?But judging by my wound it was not a baseball bat, but more like a knife. I ran as fast as I could away from them. ... A couple of minutes later, I realized I was bleeding when I touched my back and felt the T-shirt all wet,? he added.

A pub is seen damaged after a fight in downtown Rome on Thursday.

As he fled, he met two students from John Cabot University, who tried to hail a taxi to take him to hospital, but the first driver ?refused to take me in his car because I was all bloodied and still bleeding profusely,? Burnett said.

Burnett, who is on a semester abroad at Temple University in Rome, where he is studying business and Italian, was stabbed in the upper-right side of his back down to his left side, he told NBC. The stabbing punctured his right lung, he said.

?I had so many?stitches?that when I asked the doctors how many they were, they weren't even able to tell me. They simply said, ?Too many,?? he said.

'Very, very scared'
Burnett said he was initially unable to speak to the police because of the pain, but said he had been getting ?great care? from medical staff.

?I would like to tell my friends and family back at home that I am OK,? he said. ?Although I was very, very scared.?

Burnett said the attackers moved in unison like ?clockwork.?

?I don't know how they organized it so well, but that's what made it so scary ... to see them all coming at once threateningly waving what appeared to be makeshift weapons,? he said.

He said the attackers were ?hurling anything they could find ...?including chairs, tables, stools, bottles, shards from the broken windowpanes, bottles, glasses,? he said.

Rome Mayor Gianni Alemanno has expressed deep concern about the attack and said he hoped the police would quickly track down those responsible.

?We were all just having a drink, we weren't there for the football (soccer). I don't care for football at all and I don?t know anything about it,? Burnett said.

NBC News' Ian Johnston and Reuters contributed to this report.
