In this story:

The Tennessee Titans were back at home in Week 12 against the Carolina Panthers and looked like the team we have seen in Nashville all season on their way to a 17-10 victory. The offense had a nice day led by Derrick Henry who scored twice. Here is a recap of every offensive drive of the day.

  • Plays/Yards: 4 plays, 20 yards
  • Result: Punt
  • SMH Moment: Derrick Henry got hit at the line of scrimmage for a one-yard gain on second down that led to a third and long that wasn't converted.
  • Key Play: Levis hit DeAndre Hopkins for 19 yards on the first play of the drive.
  • The Skinny: The Titans can't run the ball anymore and it prevents them from having productive drives. Let's see if the blocking improves on the next drive.

  • Quarterback: Will Levis
  • Plays/Yards: 15 plays, 91 yards

  • Quarterback: Will Levis
  • Plays/Yards: 5 plays, 27 yards
  • Result: 53-yard Field Goal

  • Quarterback: Will Levis
  • Plays/Yards: 4 plays, 17 yards

  • Key Play: Henry went for 14 yards on the opening run of the series, his longest of the day.
  • The Skinny: The Titans just don't have any flow on offense and can't run the ball consistently enough to sustain multiple drives. They rely on a few big plays working. One failed on this drive.

  • Plays/Yards: 4 plays, 25 yards

  • SMH Moment: Levis missed Hopkins for a big gain on a throw that was behind Hopkins.
