Winner No. 1: Ryan Tannehill

Ryan Tannehill had a rough first half, with his pass to tight end Anthony Firsker being picked off and returned into the red zone to lead to the Texans’ first touchdown. The pick only happened because a big hit jarred the ball from the hands of Firkser.

Tannehill would bounce back with a big 15-play, 76-yard drive to begin the second half, and he capped it off with a one-yard bootleg that resulted in the Titans’ first touchdown of the game.

He’d lead them down the field for another touchdown drive to tie the ballgame up.

He nearly led the Titans to another come from behind victory, but it just wasn’t meant to be, as the defense just gave up too many fourth quarter points, and the offense just ran out of time.

Tannehill finished the game going 22-of-36 for 279 yards, with two touchdowns through the air, one on the ground, and the aforementioned interception.
