Jeffery Simmons and Bud Dupree were out with injuries, yet Tennessee's defense produced one of its most dominant pass rush performances in recent memory, one that pressured Denver quarterback Russell Wilson on 40 of the 49 times he dropped back. ... The Titans' wide receivers bounced back from one of their worst performances in recent memory and made significant contributions, particularly Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, who delivered Tennessee's longest scoring play of the season (by a wide margin) and a couple of career-highs. ... Quarterback Ryan Tannehill returned to action after having missed two games with an ankle injury, and finally got the offense (and himself) moving after a slow start. ... Offensive coordinator Todd Downing showed his creative side on two plays in particular, and the results were mixed. ... Two young defensive backs, Elijah Molden and Caleb Farley, were injured, and for one it could mean the end of his season. ... Kicker Randy Bullock also was injured (during pregame warmups, no less) but managed to kick in the contest anyway. ... A short practice week awaits as the Titans travel to take on Green Bay on Thursday night – and it's anyone's guess whether the Packers will pose a serious threat.
