It's another sad day in a season which hasn't had many high points. The Titans took a 20-7 halftime lead into the locker room at Lucas Oil Stadium. When they exited, they left their game in the locker room and couldn't make their lead stand up. Jake Locker threw a pair of costly interceptions in the second half which gave the Colts ten easy points. Andrew Luck led the Colts to another come from behind victory.
These teams are inverse images of each other in several respects. The Colts improved their record to 9-4 on the season while the Titans dropped to 4-9. The Titans have lost three games in a row and the Colts have won three in a row. The Titans have lost five of their last six, while the Colts have won seven of their last eight. They're definitely two teams going in opposite directions.
I did see a few good things today, for those who may want to find something positive or even encouraging.

That’s a much more difficult target for a kicker to hit, given the extra distance and the smaller margin between the uprights. Oh, and it might be somewhat more obscene, too.

His lone touchdown pass was accompanied by two interceptions.One of those two interceptions came in the closing seconds of the first half on a hail mary-style pass. The other was a blatant...
