Gridiron Stunner: Titans Upset Colts on Last-Second Field GoalGridiron Stunner: Titans Upset Colts on Last-Second Field Goal In a thrilling climax to an epic AFC South showdown, the Tennessee Titans stunned the Indianapolis Colts with a last-second field goal to secure a dramatic 19-17 victory on Sunday Night Football. The Titans, who had trailed by 10 points with less than five minutes remaining, staged a remarkable comeback led by quarterback Ryan Tannehill. Tannehill orchestrated a 75-yard drive that culminated in a 31-yard field goal by Randy Bullock as time expired. The Colts, who had controlled the game for much of the evening, were stunned by the Titans’ resilience. They had taken a comfortable 17-7 lead early in the fourth quarter, but the Titans clawed their way back into contention with a touchdown and a two-point conversion. With just 2:25 remaining, the Colts appeared to have the game sealed when quarterback Matt Ryan was sacked and fumbled, giving the Titans possession at the Colts’ 44-yard line. However, Tannehill and the Titans offense refused to be denied. Tannehill connected with Treylon Burks for a 25-yard gain, and then with Nick Westbrook-Ikhine for a 16-yarder. Bullock then calmly drilled the game-winning field goal as time expired, sending the Titans bench and fans into a frenzy. The Titans’ victory snapped a two-game losing streak and pushed them to 7-5 on the season. The Colts, who dropped to 4-7-1, missed an opportunity to gain ground in the AFC South race. Ryan threw for 188 yards and a touchdown for the Colts, while Tannehill passed for 236 yards and a touchdown for the Titans. Derrick Henry rushed for 102 yards for the Titans, while Jonathan Taylor gained 88 yards for the Colts. The Titans will next travel to Jacksonville to face the Jaguars on Sunday, while the Colts will host the Raiders.
