Joe Flacco throws two TD passes as the battered Colts beat the Titans 20-17

Joe Flacco has been around the NFL long enough to know the backup quarterback should always be ready to start. The 39-year-old quarterback also understands to ignore reports about a teammate possibly going on injured reserve and look for wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. when it matters most. Flacco backpedaled to buy time, then hit Pittman in the end zone with Titans cornerback L'Jarius Sneed draped over him for the 10-yard touchdown pass with 7:27 left that lifted the Indianapolis Colts to a 20-17 win Sunday over Tennessee.
