Titans’ winners and losers from Week 15 victory versus Lions

The Tennessee Titans secured their first double-digit-win season since the 2008 campaign after topping the Detroit Lions in Week 15, 46-25.

Tennessee’s offense stole the show in this one, as quarterback Ryan Tannehill and running back Derrick Henry spearheaded an attack that was unstoppable in the winning effort.

Tannehill completed 21-of-27 passes for 273 yards, took three carries for 21 yards and had five total touchdowns. Henry was almost equally impressive, finishing with 147 yards and one score, with 6.1 yards per carry.

The defense wasn’t great by any stretch, but did force two very big turnovers in the red zone, one of which occurred at the goal line. Without those turnovers, this game would have been a lot closer.

A convincing victory like this led to plenty of players getting a distinction as a “winner” but there wase also two “losers” and one “in between” to talk about. Let’s see which players or units fall into which categories.
