Titans vs Colts key moments: How Tennessee Titans lost to Indianapolis Colts

The Tennessee Titans suffered a disheartening 20-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday at Nissan Stadium to fall to 1-4 in 2024.

Tennessee held a 17-10 lead into the fourth quarter but allowed 10 points in the final 15 minutes while totaling just 39 total yards on its final five offensive possessions.

Will Levis continued to struggle as the Titans' starting quarterback, throwing for 95 yards on 16-of-27 passing with a touchdown and an interception.

Here are the three key moments in Sunday's Titans loss:

Tennessee Titans vs. Indianapolis Colts key moments

Tony Pollard's 23-yard touchdown run on third-and-long

Scenario: Titans 17, Colts 10 with 6:19 left in the third quarter after Tony Pollard's TD.

The Titans got the ball to start the second half in a 10-10 game and orchestrated an 8-minute drive, capped by Pollard's 23-yard touchdown run on a simple draw play on third-and-19.

The Colts' defense looked disinterested in tackling him on the play. Tennessee, though, had five offensive possessions following this TD in a one-score game and had only four more rushing attempts despite rushing for 146 yards in the game.

Michael Pittman Jr. wins 1-on-1 battle with L'Jarius Sneed for game-winning TD

Scenario: Colts 20, Titans 17 with 7:27 left in the fourth quarter after the score by Michael Pittman Jr.

The Colts' go-ahead touchdown came on a looping ball from quarterback Joe Flacco on third down in the face of a Titans blitz, and Pittman outwrestled L'Jarius Sneed for positioning to grab the ball for the score.

Sneed was flagged for a 33-yard defensive pass interference penalty earlier in the drive.

Though half of the fourth quarter remained, that go-ahead TD stood up as the winner.

Will Levis intercepted by Julian Blackmon on poorly thrown deep ball

Scenario: Colts 20, Titans 17 with 4:52 left after interception.

Levis put too much air on a deep ball intended for Calvin Ridley, and Colts safety Julian Blackmon intercepted the pass. It was Levis' first turnover of the game.

While it wasn't the last Titans possession of the game, the offense had similar issues in moving the ball in the fourth quarter in every possession. The Titans also had trouble getting the ball to Ridley, the prized free agent signing who totaled zero catches on eight targets Sunday.
