The Tennessee Titans walked out of Indianapolis with a 41-34 win over the Colts on Sunday, surviving a shootout that stayed in doubt until the final possessions. Week 6 in the AFC South rarely settles anything, but this one gave Tennessee a road win over a divisional rival that had matched them nearly blow for blow. Seventy-five combined points later, the Titans were the team still standing. Cam Ward ran the show for Tennessee, throwing for 273 yards and three touchdowns while keeping the offense on schedule against a Colts defense that had no answer for the tempo. Tyjae Spears did the heavy lifting on the ground, piling up 115 rushing yards and giving Ward the balance he needed to attack downfield. Indianapolis had its own weapon in Tyler Warren, who was a matchup problem all afternoon and finished with a game-high 135 receiving yards. Warren kept the Colts within striking distance, but they never quite got the stop they needed to flip the math. Keldric Faulk was the difference-maker up front for the Titans, getting home three times and turning promising Indianapolis drives into third-and-long situations. Jessie Bates III gave the Colts a spark with an interception, and Reed Blankenship led all defenders with five total tackles, but Indianapolis couldn't string together enough stops in a game that demanded them. The turning point came with Faulk's pressure late, when Tennessee's pass rush finally forced the Colts off the field and let the offense close it out. In a game where points came easy, the Titans were the team that made a defensive play when it counted.
