Randy Bullock kicks 44-yard field-winning four games after Kevin Bayard intercepts Carson Wentz and brings him back to Colts’ 32-yard line; Wentz also has an expensive pick-six interception in the fourth quarter.
Randy Bullock scored a 44-yard field goal and the Tennessee Titans won 34-31 overtime over their opponents in the AFC Southern Division, the Indianapolis Colts.
It was Wentz’s first pick in 213 assists and gave the Titans a 31-24 lead with a minute and 26 seconds remaining. With the Colts near their own end zone, Wentz, trying to avoid losing his safety, made a left pass that grabbed Elijah Malden and returned two yards to score.
But Indianapolis still found time to score again and force overtime. After Tennessee took a costly 42 yard pass penalty in the end zone. Jonathan Taylor burst into the one-yard race 22 seconds before the OT force.
The Colts were supposed to start the extra period, but after both teams came out three and came out to start the attack, Wentz’s second interception in the game helped Bullocks win the game.
After winning their third overtime win of the season, the Titans have improved to 6-2 and now have a three-game lead over their divisional rivals, while the Colts have dropped to 3-5.

Indianapolis came out of the blocks shooting in the first quarter, starting the game with a 14-game 82-yard race that Wentz ended with a two-day pass to Michael Pittman Jr. The duo then quickly connected again, this time for a seven-yard count, one game after Tannehill threw the first of his two interceptions in the game.
But gradually the Titans began to find their way into the game, and their defense came to a big decline in fourth at midfield towards the end of the first. Tennessee was followed by a 60-yard ride that culminated in Tannehill’s six-meter goal kick in favor of Jeff Swaim.
