Maybe Jeffery Simmons was right.
What a game! The Tennessee Titans improved to 3-8 on the season with their 32-27 win over the Houston Texans. There is still a lot to clean up in Will Levis’s game, he stared down Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and threw a pick six and he holds onto the ball too long a lot of the time, but overall he has looked so much better after coming back from the shoulder injury. He ended the day today with 278 yards passing with two touchdowns and one interception. QB rating isn’t the be-all-end-all, but Levis was at 123.3 today. That’s pretty good.
The defense stepped up big when they had to - especially late in the game. They held the Texans to a field goal after a Jha’Quan Jackson fumble on a punt. That was one of quite a few miscues once again for the Titans' special teams. But back to the defense, they picked off CJ Stroud twice and got a safety that ended the game.
Jeffery Simmons said this week that the Titans can still win the division. That seems highly improbable, but he stepped up and played a great game today. He and T’Vondre Sweat are really a force in the middle of the defense.
I’m really happy for Brian Callahan and his staff. You can tell this team is still playing hard for him. I really cannot wait to see what Callahan’s offense can do when he actually has an entire offensive line that can block.
What stood out to you the most today?
