NASHVILLE, Dec. 3 (UPI) -- Rob Bironas kicked a 60-yard field goal with seven seconds remaining Sunday afternoon to lift the Tennessee Titans past Indianapolis, 20-17.

It marked the second straight week the young Titans have pulled off an unlikely victory. They did all of their scoring in the fourth quarter last Sunday to beat the New York Giants, 24-21, after a 21-0 deficit.

Rookie Vince Young had two touchdown passes and two interceptions on 15-for-25 passing for 163 yards, and marched his team 33 yards in nine plays over the final 2 1/2 minutes for the winning kick.

Drew Bennett and Brandon Jones each caught one touchdown pass; Travis Henry gained 93 yards on 20 carries; and Young added 78 rushing yards as the Titans rose to 5-7.

Peyton Manning threw for 351 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions for the Colts (10-2), who have lost for the second time in three games after blowing a 14-0 first half lead.
