Titans 31 Colts 21 Quick Recap: Myth Busters
The Titans can't come from behind according to Tony Kornheiser: False
The Titans can't win a game where they can't run the ball: False
The Titans defense isn't that good because they haven't played anyone: Well I guess we can't call that one false yet because the Colts, just like most of the teams the Titans have played, are under .500 and aren't very good. Yeah, I said it.
This is the biggest win the Titans have had in a long time. A 4 game lead in the divison through 7 games is awesome.
Also, who predicted a 7-0 start? This guy (says Jimmy with two thumbs pointed at himself).
The Titans have a tough 3 game stretch coming up, but the good news is the Titans have a 4 game lead in the division. Much, much more coming on this game tomorrow. For now we celebrate this win.

yeahhhhhh boyeeeeee!!!
that was awesome! i thought the d looked a little flat for whatever reason and the colts did a good job of stopping the run. its amazing that we still pulled it off with a little room to spare considering that in years past the titans had to play near perfect to beat the colts.
kinda sad we gave up the late td cause i was hoping that the colts wouldnt score over 20. thats just me being greedy though. great, great win!!!
its becoming quite clear
where the road to the superbowl goes through….

My initial impresssions from this one:
-We got some breaks from the refs on the 8-point drive, but that’s how this game is.
-3 game-changing plays tonight: two incredible holds on fourth and short, and the catch by Hawkins.
-Hope also gets some love for his two picks.
-Collins looked bad in the first half, but nutted up in the last two quarters.
-Run defense was pretty hit or miss.
-At the end of the day, pretty big win for the Titans, though as has been noted, it’s not as satisfying as it would be if we’d beaten a winning team.

The game was swung on a few bounces of the ball
but that’s the way the game is. Your guys did what it took to win .The Colts aren’t dead one back from a wildcard, but the division is almost certainly out of reach. We were running out of space for the AFC South Champ banners anyway.
Good game.

titans need to get ready for a tough stretch
if we can get past gb, chi, and jax, we can plow through jersey-b, det, clev, and hous. all of a sudden we would sit at 14-0 w/ the colts and steelers remaining.
i’m looking way too far ahead, but for sure, the next 3 games may tell the tale as to whether we can get homefield throughout the playoffs
I agree 100%
on the next three games deciding home field. If we at least go 2-1 we are good.

2-1
in the next three would be great. they could possibly go 1-2 and not be in too bad shape to win home field throughout playoffs, since two of those teams are NFC. They won’t affect our conference record.

We're the Godfathers of the AFC South for tonight

Our boys have earned it!

Grats on the win, Titans fans.
I’m glad that I have a man-crush on Jeff Fisher, that Pac-Man is someone else’s problem, that “Stompy” Haynesworth is maybe reformed, and that VY is sitting on the bench; otherwise, this Colts loss would be even more depressing than it already is. I’m actually starting to like your team and I’m kind of hoping that the Titans at least take the AFC, since the Colts are clearly determined to be a crappy team this year and since the rest of the conference blows goats. I would like to point out, however, that the doubters still sort of have a case, since the Titans were losing to Indy while the Colts were playing at least mediocre football through the first drive in the 3rd and only managed to dominate after Indy made the seemingly inevitable switch to shit gear. Tennessee still hasn’t beaten a truly good team :-p.
I'll agree that the doubters may still have a case.
But the doubters also have at least one loss.
If I hit a hole-in-one on this grand slam the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

i'm not sure
there are that many truly good teams (using this season as the context) on our schedule period. Pittsburgh. Maybe green bay and the bears, but I think they’re more “pretty good” at this point than “truly good”.
I would guess that even if the Titans are 16-0 going into the playoffs (which they won’t be, or i’ll have to mess my pants a second time) that there will still be plenty of doubters.

my take on the we havnt played anyone good argument.
I realize everyone loves to use this argument…. but here is my take.
Who is good? Who could we have played that could be considered a “good team”.
I think the Titans, Steelers and Giants are what these doubters would consider “good teams”.
Maybe carolina? Fact is there isnt really many good teams in the NFL that these doubters consider good! Is New England good? Tampa? Dallas?
Im sure if we beat NE or Tampa they would still be saying the same crap. So I guess the titans are not “for real” because they have not played pittsburgh, giants, or themselves…..
Here is how I see it. We have beat every team put in front of us, and have looked damn good doing it. You can say we havnt beat a good team, but theres only 3 good teams in the NFL!
What I like
is the fact that we rotated our WR’s a lot. And actually, I think B.Jones and Hawkins is doing a great job. I think Hawkins is going to work out great for us.
Some Love FOr #81
Brandon Jones has been the glue that keeps together the WR’s this year. He had some enormous plays not just tonight but all throughout the season and deserves some props along with Scaife and Crumpler.
Tulloch making that stop on fourth down- play of the year so far.
7-0. Can’t believe it.
TITANS!!!!!!!
The greatest accomplishment is not in never falling, but in rising again after you fall.
Vince Lombardi
Roydell Williams
How well do you guys think he’d be doing right now if we resigned him, and he was healthy?
Kerry Collins
has to feel pretty good today. How many people had been saying he couldn’t win a game with his arm?
I was impressed with the WR's....
B. Jones looked really good last night to my suprise, and the Hawk made a great catch on the sideline. I was also glad to see Crumpler get more involved in the offense last night. I just wished he could have made that catch down by the goal line.
