Colts luckily win 14-13 over Titans
The Colts narrowly escaped with a win over the Tennessee Titans. Peyton Manning completed 20 of 31 passes for 166 yards with 2 TDs and 1 INT. Dominic Rhodes carried the ball 20 times for 84 yards (4.2 ypc) and caught 5 passes for 26 yards. Joseph Addai carried the ball 13 times for 62 yards (4.8 ypc). Brandon Stokley caught 5 passes for 57 yards. Marvin Harrison only caught 3 passes for 29 yards and a TD. Reggie Wayne caught 3 passes for 24 yards and a TD.
The Colts still can’t stop the run and the Titans took advantage of the Colts weakness and almost beat them. LB Cato June had 11 tackles. Safety Michael Doss had six tackles, defensed a pass and returned an interception 31 yards. The Titans ran the ball 31 times for 214 yards (6.9 ypc). The Colts only allowed the Titans to complete 10 of 21 passes for 63 net yards passing.
The Colts got lucky they were playing the Titans, as almost any other NFL team would have beat them.
Caught just a little-bit of a blurb from a sports writer from Indy, on his comments regaurdig the Colts, Titans game.And I quote:”This team looks lethargic and dis-intrested to the point of boredom. A commentary on ESPN’S P.T.I. concur-ed with this statement. Do we think we are to the point of greatness, where we become bored with the game? We are truly LUCKY to be 5-0.And in all probabilty should be 1-4 HO-HUM YAWN
I agree with you chef. The Colts are damn lucky to be 5-0 and if they don’t fix their run defense, some team is gonna walk into the Dome and whack them on there home turf in the playoffs.
