With the VOLS giving us a lackluster season we need something to crave our Football desires. Thank goodness for the TITANS!!!!!!

Nashville Tennessee: Monday Night Football pitted two AFC South rivals as the Indianapolis Colts (3-4) visited the Tennessee Titans (7-0). Twenty-five unanswered second half points gave the Titans the win, and the best start in their history, 31-21. The victory puts the Titans in the drivers seat as they have a four game lead in the AFC South division and they also have a two game lead for home field advantage in the AFC.

Lendale White ran for two touchdowns, and Chris Hope intercepted Peyton Manning twice giving the Titans  an NFL-best 10 straight regular-season game wins , matching the second-best streak in franchise history.

Kerry Collins outmanaged Manning, throwing for 193 yards with no interceptions, Manning had the Colts up 14-6 in the third quarter on two touchdown passes to Dallas Clark against a Tennessee defense that came in having allowed only one TD pass through the first six games. Two big fourth down stops late in the third quater and early in the fourth quarter gave the boys in light blue just the spark they needed as the Titans took the lead with a 48 yard field goal 17-14. A seven minute, sixty-six yard drive, by the Titans ended with another touchdown by White putting them up 24-14. After a interception with 3:38 left in the game rookie Chris Johnson scored the Titans last touchdown from 16 yards out, making the score 31-14 and Peyton Manning worked his magic driving the Colts down the field and running the ball in himself from one yard out with 1:17 left to play. A failed on-side kick secured the victory for the Titans.

The Green Bay Packers (4-3) come into Nashville this Sunday to try to knock the Titans off the top-spot in the NFL. Game time is set for 1pm on the FOX network.    GO TITANS!!!
