Biggest takeaways from Titans’ 28-16 win over Rams in Week 9

There should no longer be any doubt that the Titans are legit contenders, even without Derrick Henry.

With their backs against the wall in the wake of the injury to Derrick Henry, the Tennessee Titans once again rose to the occasion, beating the overwhelming home favorite, the Los Angeles Rams, 28-16.

The story of Sunday night was Tennessee’s defense, which held the Rams’ potent offense and passing attack to just 16 points and 347 yards of total offense, including just 253 through the air.

Making the win more impressive was the fact that it came on a night when the offense was not at its best.

With the victory, the Titans maintain their comfortable lead over the Colts in the AFC South, remain atop the conference, and are one game closer to weathering the storm while Henry is out.

There was a lot to like about the Titans’ Week 9 win over the Rams, but let’s take a look at the biggest takeaways from Tennessee’s latest upset victory that stunned the rest of the football world.
