LAST WEEK AT HOUSTON
The Titans traveled to Houston last week for their second divisional game of the 2024 season. In a game that featured five lead changes, the Titans scored the final go-ahead touchdown with less than 10 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, when the Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo turned a pass by quarterback Will Levis into a 70-yard score.
Harold Landry III’s sack for a safety helped clinch the victory for the Titans. Levis also completed a 38-yard touchdown pass to Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and found Calvin Ridley for a 63-yard strike to set up another score. The second-year signal caller totaled 278 passing yards with a 123.3 passer rating. He opened the game with 11 straight completions.
The passing game was complemented by Tony Pollard’s 119 rushing yards and one touchdown. Pollard, who has 800 rushing yards through 11 games, registered his second 100-yard rushing performance of the season.
Kicker Nick Folk made all three of his field goals—all from beyond 50 yards. His 56-yarder tied his career-long and tied for the second-longest field goal in franchise history.
Landry provided one of the four sacks for a defense that also limited Houston to 40 rushing yards on 17 attempts. Rookie cornerback Jarvis Brownlee Jr. notched three passes defensed, including his first career interception, while veteran linebacker Kenneth Murray Jr. added his first interception in a Titans uniform.
The Titans enter December ranked second in the NFL in overall defense (276.4 yards allowed per game), first in passing defense (169.6), and eighth in rushing defense (106.7).
THE COMMANDERS
During the 2024 offseason, the Commanders hired a new general manager, Adam Peters, and a new head coach, Dan Quinn. Peters and Titans executive vice president/ general manager Ran Carthon previously worked together at the San Francisco 49ers. Quinn, who was the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons from 2015 to 2020, arrived in Washington following his role as the defensive coordinator of the Dallas Cowboys.
The Commanders also welcomed a new quarterback during the 2024 offseason. With the second selection in the NFL Draft, they chose Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels from Louisiana State. In 12 starts as a rookie, Daniels has passed for 2,613 yards and 12 touchdowns with five interceptions.
The Commanders hosted the NFC East rival Dallas Cowboys last week and suffered their third consecutive loss, falling by a final score of 34-26. They are in second place in the division behind the 9-2 Philadelphia Eagles.
