The Tennessee Titans are officially in the driver’s seat of the AFC South after notching their fifth-straight win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 7, 19-10.
The win gives Tennessee a sweep over the Colts for the second straight year, while also keeping them in first place and giving them the head-to-head tie-breaker over the Colts, should it come to that.
It was the same story as always for the Titans: the offense struggled but the defense came up with some huge plays to secure Tennessee’s fourth win of the season, and fourth in a row overall.
Here’s what the Titans had to say about the big win.
