The biggest division game in week 5 is the Sunday night game between the Colts and the Titans.The Colts look to change things around this year and a week 5 win against the Titans in Tennessee just might jump start the Colts to take over in the driver seat.
With Tennessee’s abysmal start this season one has to wonder why QB Vince Young has yet to start a game. Tennessee coach Jeff Fisher has given no indication that he is about to make a change and is sticking with veteran QB Kerry Collins. Collins hasn’t played as well as he did in 2008 and already has five interceptions after having only seven all of last season.
The Colts (4-0) are one of the five remaining undefeated teams and have stepped up their defense allowing just 73 yards rushing over the past two games in wins over Arizona and Seattle, after giving up 353 yards in the first two games in wins over Jacksonville and Miami. On the other side of the ball QB Peyton Manning has been on a roll through the first four games of the season. Manning was nearly unstoppable in last weeks win over Seattle, completing 31-of-41 passes for 353 yards, two touchdowns and had one interception. Manning completed passes to seven different receivers.
The Titans will lose at home, distancing themselves from any chance of a postseason run.
