Tennessee Titans vs. Indianapolis Colts Series at a Glance

Colts2_medium

The Colts lead the all-time series between these two teams 17-13, and the Titans are 7-10 in Indy.  There has only been one postseason meeting between the two that was won by the Titans.  The last six meetings have been split after the Colts won the 7 previous.

The earlier meeting this season was won by the Colts going away.  That game was also played without Cortland Finnegan and Vincent Fuller.

Chris Johnson owes the Colts one because he was held to a season low total of 34 yards rushing in that game.

As a side note, Peyton Manning is still the bane of my existence and is leading the league with 3,415 yards passing.  That is 310.5 yards per game which is crazy and puts him on a pace for just shy of 5,000 yards.

The broadcast will be handled on CBS by Ian Eagle and Rich Gannon.

Info from the NFL release after the jump.
