The Tennessee Titans desperately needed a win in Week 3 to avoid starting 0-3, and they got just that with a 24-22 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders.
It was a tale of two halves for Tennessee, as the Titans dominated during the first two quarters before stalling offensively in the second half, which allowed the Raiders to climb back into the game.
Clinging to a 24-22 lead with just over one minute left to play, the Titans had to get one more stop on a two-point conversion to win the game and the defense came up with the big play to secure the win.
With the victory, the Titans improve to 1-2 and have a head of steam going into a Week 4 showdown with their division rivals, the Indianapolis Colts, who notched an upset win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3.
Here’s a look at what head coach Mike Vrabel and Titans players had to say about the crucial win on Sunday.
