The Titans season can be broken down neatly into two parts.
In the part before Ryan Tannehill was their starting quarterback, they were 2-4 and heading nowhere fast. In the part where Tannehill is their quarterback, they are 5-1 and trying to find a way into the postseason...

Two weeks ago, the Raiders had a 6-4 record, with only a game against the hapless (supposedly) Jets standing in the way of a showdown between a pair of 7-4 franchises in Kansas City for first place in the AFC West.

With all their offensive firepower missing, the Colts know they’re going to have to rely on their defense.
So far, it’s working.
