For a moment during the first half of Sunday’s games, it appeared as if the Indianapolis Colts were trending toward 0-4 while the Tennessee Titans were on their way to a triumph over the lowly New York Jets to improve to 3-1.

It’d be almost impossible to dig out of that hole, especially with the Titans having won the two teams’ first head-to-head matchup in Week 3.

But it turns out the Titans couldn’t handle a rookie quarterback and managed to lose a shootout … somehow scoring just two touchdowns against one of the league’s worst defenses. Ah, did we forget this team loves to blow their chances in epic fashion?

It’s even funnier that they fumbled the opportunity to salvage a tie. Thank you, Randy Bullock.

Colts fans will love watching the Titans lose to the Jets in pathetic fashion.

Never close! That’s your game! The Jets have their first win of the season after an 0-3 start. Rookie QB and No. 2 overall pick Zach Wilson gets his first career win! And the Titans fall to 2-2 and lost a game on the Colts in what was a tailor-made scheduling gift designed to help them maintain their distance or get even further ahead.

The secondary gave up this ridiculous play that led to the Jets’ game-winning field goal, too:

Not a good look.

Indy ended up making quick work of the Miami Dolphins and grabbed their first win of the season and are now just one game back of the Titans, and they’ll face off again at the end of the month. Before that happens, Tennessee has the Jaguars, Bills and Chiefs while the Colts have the Ravens, Texans and 49ers.

Colts go 2-1, Titans go 1-2, and we have a battle for the AFC South lead on Halloween, with the Jets and Jaguars on the schedule right after for Indy.

That 0-3 start isn’t looking so bad, now, is it?
