DT Albert Haynesworth and the Titans won a slugfest in Baltimore, improving to
5-0 on the season.
The Tennessee Titans are still unbeaten, thanks to a late touchdown drive and
a defense that outperformed the top-ranked unit in the league. Kerry Collins threw
an 11-yard touchdown pass to Alge Crumpler with 1:56 left to rally Tennessee past
the Baltimore Ravens 13-10 at M&T Bank Stadium. The Titans (5-0) trailed 10-6
in the fourth quarter before Collins directed an 11-play, 80-yard scoring drive
that culminated in his game-winning strike to Crumpler. Baltimore rookie quarterback
Joe Flacco was then intercepted by Nick Harper, assuring the Ravens (2-2) a second
straight defeat. The game was marred by several skirmishes, most of which resulted
in personal foul penalties. Tennessee was penalized 10 times for 78 yards, including
two 15-yard infractions that fueled both Baltimore's scoring drives. The Ravens
received 11 penalties for 91 yards in a matchup between two teams that once were,
and seem to still be, bitter rivals.
