The Titans and Rams are winless no more. The Broncos finally lost a game. And the Indianapolis Colts did just enough to win.
They always do, it seems.
At Indianapolis, the Colts (7-0) beat San Francisco 18-14 to win their 16th straight regular-season game and became the last undefeated team in the AFC when Denver was manhandled 30-7 by the Ravens in Baltimore.
Tennessee (1-6) hadn't won since Dec. 21 in Pittsburgh. St. Louis hadn't won in more than a year — dating to Oct. 19, 2008 against Dallas.
"I haven't forgotten how it feels, it's just been a long time," Rams running back Stephen Jackson said after St. Louis beat Detroit 17-10.
As expected of two teams that combined for one win entering the day, the Rams and Lions played an awful football game.
At Detroit, Jackson's 25-yard touchdown run with 1:38 left kept the Rams (1-7) from matching the worst start in franchise history. They also ended talk about joining Detroit (1-6) as the only teams in NFL history to have an 0-16 season.
In Nashville, Tenn., the Titans ended their streak of eight straight losses thanks in part to quarterback Vince Young.
Tennessee owner Bud Adams isn't taking credit for the decision to start Young and bench Kerry Collins, even though Young threw for a touchdown and kept the Titans in the game.
