What happened: Brad Hopkins examined the turnovers from Tennessee's 26-20 road victory over the Indianapolis Colts on the latest edition of Titans Film Review. Two of the three Indianapolis giveaways occurred inside Titans territory during the Oct. 18 divisional matchup. The segment continues Hopkins' ongoing film review series analyzing Tennessee's defensive production.

Why it matters: The takeaway margin secured the first victory of the 2026 regular season for the 1-5 Titans, who sit 14th in the AFC standings. For the 2-4 Colts, a second straight defeat dropped Indianapolis to 12th in the conference and heightened rival trade interest in veteran starters ahead of the Nov. 10 deadline.

By the numbers: Tennessee defeated Indianapolis 26-20 on Oct. 18 to improve to 1-5 (AFC No. 14 seed), while the Colts fell to 2-4 (AFC No. 12 seed) on a two-game losing streak after committing three turnovers, including two in Titans territory.

What to watch: Tennessee looks to extend its winning streak off the turnover-driven victory, while Indianapolis enters a pivotal two-week evaluation window ahead of the Nov. 10 NFL trade deadline.
