YOUNG CAPS PRESEASON WITH TD PASS: The Titans took a 7-0 lead when Vince Young completed his first touchdown pass of the preseason, a seven-yard strike to tight end Bo Scaife. It was Young's final pass of the night. He finished with seven attempts, four completions and 24 yards for a 103.6 passer rating.
JONES SACK: Defensive tackle Jason Jones continued his impressive preseason, accounting for a seven-yard sack of Patrick Ramsey in the second quarter.
GADO TAKES OFF: In the second quarter, back-up running back Samkon Gado gained 31 yards on a rushing play, setting up a 30-yard field goal by Rob Bironas.
TWO-MINUTE DRIVE: With Kerry Collins at quarterback, the Titans executed a two-minute drive with success at the end of the first half. Armed with two timeouts, they took possession on their own 29-yard line. Ten plays and 63 yards later, Rob Bironas booted a 26-yard field goal as time expired in the half to give the Titans a 13-10 lead.
DEFENSE CONTINUES STREAK: With the Titans defensive starters playing much of the first half, the unit continued its preseason streak of not allowing a touchdown. The Saints scored three points on offense in the first half (seven after a blocked punt), giving the Titans four consecutive preseason games without the starters allowing a touchdown to an opposing offense.
