COLTS ...27 TITANS ...17 Indianapolis tied the NFL record for longest winning streak, beating Tennessee for its 21st consecutive regular-season victory. The only other team to win that many in a row: New England from 2006-08. The Colts can break the record next week at home against Denver. The victory also extended the Colts' league mark for most consecutive 12-win seasons to seven and ended the Titans' five-game winning streak. Peyton Manning threw one TD pass, Joseph Addai ran for two scores and the Colts spent the second half protecting the lead. It was the first time in six games Indy didn't need a fourth-quarter comeback to win. Tennessee's Chris Johnson ran 27 times for 113 yards, his seventh straight 100-yard game, but failed to become the first player in league history to top 125 yards rushing in seven straight. ...more

CHARGERS ...30 BROWNS ...23 LaDainian Tomlinson scored his 150th career touchdown and passed Hall of Famer Jim Brown for eighth place on the career rushing list as San Diego won its seventh straight and 15th in a row in December. Antonio Gates set a career high with 167 yards receiving for the Chargers, who dragged their cleats early and only led 13-7 at halftime. But Philip Rivers led San Diego on TD drives of 85 and 83 yards in just over nine minutes in the third quarter to open a 27-7 lead. Tomlinson's 4-yard TD run with 5:58 left in the third put the Chargers up by 20, and placed the running back in elite company among NFL greats. Tomlinson reached 150 TDs in 137 games, fastest in league history. The Browns have lost seven straight games. ...more
