STREAKS, STATS AND NOTES - Monday's game is one of 19 this season to feature former Super Bowl matchup. New York beat Colts 16-7 in January 1969, Super Bowl result considered most shocking in NFL history. ... Ryan Fitzpatrick is expected to become first quarterback since 1950 to start five consecutive road games against one team while playing for five different teams. Fitzpatrick is 0-4 in starts at Lucas Oil Stadium. ... Jets forced five turnovers and had 21 points off those turnovers last week after finishing with league-low 13 takeaways and just 20 points off them in 2014. ... RB Chris Ivory ran for 91 yards and two TDs in win over Browns. ... It's unclear if CB Antonio Cromartie will play Monday night after spraining left knee. ... Former Colts center Jeff Saturday will be inducted into Ring of Honor at halftime. ... Since Andrew Luck arrived in 2012, Colts have only lost back to back one time in regular season. ... Luck will start 50th game Sunday. ... Indy is 2-1 in coach Chuck Pagano's first three home openers. ... Indy RB Frank Gore needs 133 yards rushing to pass O.J. Simpson for No. 19, and 138 to pass Corey Dillon for No. 18 on NFL's career list. He previously played for 49ers. ... WR Andre Johnson needs nine catches to pass Isaac Bruce for eighth place and 157 yards receiving to pass Henry Ellard for 11th on NFL's career lists. He previously was with Houston. ... K Adam Vinatieri will needs one field goal to move past John Carney for No. 4 in league history; five points to pass Jason Hanson for No. 3 in NFL history; and eight points to pass Mike Vanderjagt as Colts' career scoring leader. ...
