In a decisive matchup, the Tennessee Titans outlasted the Indianapolis Colts with a final score of 35-21, solidifying their position in the competitive AFC South. This Week 6 clash was crucial for both teams, as they aimed to maintain momentum heading into the latter part of the season.

Kerry Collins was the standout performer for the Titans, throwing for an impressive 398 yards and three touchdowns, showcasing his ability to command the offense. Nate Washington also made significant contributions, racking up 128 receiving yards, making big plays that kept the Colts' defense on the back foot. Meanwhile, Joseph Addai led the Colts in rushing with 74 yards, but it was clear the Titans' aerial attack was the difference maker.

Defensively, the Colts struggled to contain Tennessee's potent offense, despite a strong performance from Justin Tryon, who recorded eight tackles. The turning point of the game came late in the second quarter when Collins connected with Washington for a long touchdown, extending the lead to 21-7 and shifting the momentum firmly in favor of the Titans. While Antonio Johnson tallied 1.5 sacks for Indianapolis and Gary Brackett intercepted a pass, it wasn't enough to overcome the Titans' offensive firepower.
