Observations from Titans’ 42-20 win over Jaguars

It’s not Week 3 anymore.

The Tennessee Titans looked like a much different team as they blew the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars away, 42-20 in Nissan Stadium on Sunday.

Here are a few quick observations we made throughout the game.

– The Titans won the toss and chose to defer, allowing the Jaguars the first go on offense.

– Outside linebacker Harold Landry recorded his eight sack with a takedown on Nick Foles.

– Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill continues to be a quiet threat on the ground, picking up the first Titans touchdown of the day with a 21-yard scramble.

– Rookie Amani Hooker got looks as he nearly picked off Foles early in the game.

– Dennis Kelly scored yet another Tennessee touchdown on a tricky play call from offensive coordinator Arthur Smith to make it 14-3.

– Running back Derrick Henry was more than efficient, adding another touchdown run complete with a stiff-arm to the score board.

– Henry tacked on another scoring play to bring the score to 28-3, Titans.

– Tannehill found wide receiver A.J. Brown on a 65-yard pass to bring the Titans to a solid lead of 35-3.

– The Jaguars were able to find some life, generating a Leonard Fournette touchdown and a two-point conversion to bring the score to 35-11 by the end of the third quarter.

– Fournette got to the end-zone again, but failed on the two-point attempt to leave them trailing 35-17.

– Tannehill ran in another touchdown on his own, making it 42-17.

– The Jags were able to slightly trim the Titans’ lead with a field goal, bringing the game to its final score of 42-20.
