The Tennessee Titans have officially secured a place in the playoffs following a 35-14 road win over the Houston Texans on Sunday.
The team is set to face the New England Patriots on Saturday at 7:15 p.m. CST. The contest will be televised on CBS.
If the Titans make it past Tom Brady and the Patriots, the team will face Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens next.
Defeating a such a historically dominant team will be no easy task, and there’s no doubt the Patriots are eager to bounce back after a 27-24 loss to a lowly Miami Dolphins team.

But the Titans definitely have what they need on the roster to make it happen.
Quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been a major factor in righting the Titans’ season to their 9-7 finish, and completed 13-of-20 passes for 198 yards and a pair of touchdowns against the Texans.
It was also a big day for Derrick Henry, who now leads the NFL in rushing.
He record 211 rushing yards and three touchdowns against Houston, and finishes the regular season with 1,540 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns.
It will be interesting to see how things shake out, as the Titans hope for a performance like their 34-10 home win in 2018.
