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

BENGALS ...23 LIONS ...13 Cincinnati running back Cedric Benson returned from a two-game layoff because of an injured hip and tied the team record with his fifth 100-yard game of the season. The Bengals assured themselves of a winning record for only the second time in 19 years. The other one came in 2005, when Cincinnati won the AFC North and lost its opening playoff game to Pittsburgh. After a solid first quarter, the Lions went nowhere and had the game end badly. Rookie quarterback Matthew Stafford aggravated his non-throwing shoulder with 3:37 to go and didn't return, watching the final minutes from the bench. Benson finished with 110 yards on 36 carries, becoming the third different Bengal to run for 100 yards in the past three games. Carson Palmer threw for 220 yards and a TD to Chad Ochocinco. ...more
