What Titans are saying after Week 17 win over Texans

The Tennessee Titans are AFC South champions for the first time since the 2008 season after they narrowly defeated the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium on Sunday, 41-38.

It wasn’t pretty, but a win is a win, which is pretty much the theme for Tennessee’s 11-win season.

The defense was putrid once again, but thankfully the offense was able to step up on the strength of another 200-yard game from Derrick Henry and a solid showing from A.J. Brown, Ryan Tannehill and the Titans’ passing attack.

Even with those performances, the Titans still needed a game-winning field goal at the end of regulation from rookie kicker Sam Sloman, who was filling in for Stephen Gostkowski.

Following the win, there was a lot to talk about, whether it was Sloman’s game-winning doink, Henry’s 250-yard game that put him over 2,000 yards, or the fact that the Titans have won a division title.

Here’s a look at what head coach Mike Vrabel, Henry, Sloman and other Titans players had to say about the win.
