INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indianapolis Colts are back in the playoffs.
And they look like they're ready to defend their AFC championship, too.
Peyton Manning threw two touchdown passes, the defense limited Chris Johnson to 39 yards rushing and the always-clutch Adam Vinatieri booted a 43-yard field goal as time expired Sunday to give the Colts a 23-20 victory over the Tennessee Titans. They earned their seventh -- and most improbable -- AFC South title in eight seasons.
"We know what they were up against and how difficult it was and to overcome all that and win the division," owner Jim Irsay said, "it is extra special."
