Led by the league's leading rusher in Derrick Henry, the Titans opened the playoffs by knocking off the reigning Super Bowl champion New England Patriots. Henry ran for 182 yards and dominated New England for four quarters.
In the Divisional Round, the Titans were heavy underdogs against the top-seeded Baltimore Ravens. They again pulled together and played a clean game, pulling off the upset win, 28-12. Henry continued running over defenders, finishing with 195 rushing yards, while also throwing a Tim Tebow-like jump pass for a touchdown.
They were once the underdogs, but are now viewed as legitimate contenders to win it all. In order to make it to the Super Bowl, they will hit the road yet again to play the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City at 3:05 p.m. EST next Sunday. The Titans defeated the Chiefs, 35-32, when these two teams met in Nashville earlier this season in Week 10.
Ryan Tannehill began the year as a backup on a one-year deal.
