Tannehill was sacked only once, and he threw for 266 yards with two touchdowns and a 106.4 passer rating. The Titans unveiled a new offensive line featuring two new starters with Aaron Brewer at left guard and rookie Nicholas Petit-Frere at right tackle. Ryan Tannehill was the NFL’s second-most sacked quarterback in 2021, taken down 47 times. Two-time NFL rushing champ Derrick Henry said games like this happen in a long season. The Titans do get a bit of a break from the road-heavy start to their season. They went 3-1 in that span on their way to a 12-5 record and the AFC’s No. The Titans were routed 38-13 by Arizona, then hit the road for three of their next four games. Tennessee was in this same situation a year ago only worse. They had 1:06 left and took the final timeout after rookie Kyle Philips' 21-yard catch got them to the Giants 27. The Titans had their chance to win as time expired only to see Randy Bullock’s 47-yard field-goal attempt miss wide left in a 21-20 loss to the New York Giants. “You have to regroup, figure out what you did good, what you did bad and try to eliminate the things that get you beat,“ Vrabel said Monday. Titans coach Mike Vrabel said the challenge remains the same whether coming off a win or loss.

That makes the Monday night game in Buffalo up next even more daunting and the possibility of an 0-2 hole quite real for the AFC’s No.

(AP) - Tennessee’s opening schedule looked daunting from the moment the NFL released a slate sending the Titans on the road for five of their first eight games.
