Colts Nab Vinatieri

Indianapolis has agreed in principle to a deal with kicker Adam Vinatieri, the team announced Tuesday night on its Web site. The Colts make the switch from Mike Vanderjagt -- who misses the least -- to the one who never misses when it matters most.

Vinatieri has hit two winning kicks in the Super Bowl for the Patriots. Vanderjagt's career accuracy rate is the best in the NFL, but twice in his career he missed critical field goals in the playoffs.

One of those also happened to be his last kick for Indianapolis. In January, Vanderjagt badly missed a 46-yarder in the closing seconds that would have forced overtime with eventual Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh.
