NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Kyle Orton threw a 6-yard touchdown pass
to Correll Buckhalter with 1:33 left, and the Denver Broncos
rallied and beat the Tennessee Titans 26-20 on Sunday.
The Broncos (2-2) clinched the victory when they kicked short on
the ensuing kickoff, trying to avoid rookie Marc Mariani who
already had a 98-yard return for a touchdown. The Titans (2-2) let
the ball bounce, and Mariani tried to jump up and catch it only to
be hit by David Bruton.
Cassius Vaughn recovered, and Matt Prater kicked his fourth
field goal to pad the lead.
Tennessee had one last chance with 33 seconds left, but Vince
Young's third incompletion fell to the turf as time expired to
overshadow a game in which Tennessee had a season-high six sacks
and an interception.
Orton finished with 341 yards passing and two touchdowns as
Denver held the ball more than 35 minutes.
