Week 6 — Indianapolis Colts (home game)

The Titans haven’t beat the Colts since 2011, but that’s only part of the reason this game is so important.

Mentally, the Titans have to win this game to prove to themselves they can beat the Colts. Whatever mental block is in place has to be removed.

But aside from the losing streak, this is also a big divisional game that Tennessee needs to win. Andrew Luck likely won’t start the season on the P.U.P. list, but no one really knows how healthy he will be.

In addition to Luck’s shaky health, the Colts will be without center Ryan Kelly for this game. That’s also a huge loss for Indy, one that could hinder their offensive rhythm.

The Titans are a better team than the Colts, and they need to prove it in week six.
