With both teams coming off huge wins, they both like to keep their winning streak alive, the Packers look to get back into the NFC playoff race while the Titans look to increase the lead on the crumbling AFC south. Let’s go through each half and my biggest takeaways for each team.
With both teams starting off hot in scoring a touchdown, each of them really struggled in the second quarter to score much and pull away going into the halftime but with each quarterback having a passing touchdown the first half was a pretty even matchup. With Aaron Rodgers continuing to grow his rapport with rookie wide receiver Christian Watson, Watson did catch a touchdown from Rogers. While Ryan Tannehill also threw a touchdown to his backup running back Dontrell Hillard.
With Derek Henry having another great game he really did it all yesterday with two total touchdowns, including a rushing and passing touchdown, Henry is truly a special player and you got to see that again last night. Titans tight end Austin Hooper also had a good night with two touchdowns, one from Tannehill and one from Derek Henry. The Titans just pulled away in the second half making Green Bay have to throw the ball and play catch-up for most of the second half. Aaron Rodgers also had a nice game with two touchdowns and no picks, with both of his touchdowns to rookie receiver Christian Watson once again, the Packers really struggled in the run game against the Titans but with the Titans pulling away in the second half Green Bay didn’t have the time to run the ball.
Overall I believe the Packers are one more loss away from missing the playoffs, and Tennessee is really rolling now. Titans beat the Packers 27-17 as the. The Packers fall to 4-7 on the year as the Titans advanced to 7-3.
