Quick Take: Titans stay alive with win

Published: Dec 16, 2007 at 07:31 AM

It was over when ...
David Thorton intercepted Brodie Croyle's pass with 4:15 left in the game to end a Chiefs' modest scoring threat. The Titans took a 26-17 lead on Rob Bironas' 25-yard field goal with under six minutes left in the fourth quarter, forcing the Chiefs to become one-dimensional.

Game ball
Receiver Roydell Williams matched his season total with two touchdown receptions for the Titans. The second was a 41-yarder with the Titans trailing, 14-13, that gave Tennessee the lead for good. Williams finished with four receptions for 94 yards.

Key stat
Quarterback Vince Young completed 16-of-26 passes for 191 yards, but more importantly, did not thrown an interception as the Titans won the turnover battle 3-0. Young rebounded from a forgettable game last week, when he threw two interceptions.

Noteworthy
The Titans stayed in the playoff race, but remained a game behind the Cleveland Browns, who defeated the Buffalo Bills.
