Stepping up when the Tennessee Titans needed him most, QB Steve McNair threw for two touchdowns and ran for two more as the Titans rallied to defeat the Jacksonville Jaguars 28-24 on Sunday.

It was the second time in his seven-year career that McNair has thrown and run for two touchdowns in the same game (Oct. 26, 1997 vs. Arizona). He has run for two TDs five times and has 25 career rushing TDs.

McNair finished 27 for 34 passing for 241 yards with 10 carries for a team-high 74 yards Sunday against the Jags.
