The Houston Texans were able to hang tough against the Tennessee Titans in the first half of their Week 8 matchup and will need a strong showing in the last two quarters to pull out an improbable victory. In a game that has been defined by the Titans’ quarterback situation, with rookie Malik Willis getting his first NFL start, the Texans are seeking to show that they can get a win over a quality opponent that has run their division in recent years.

Derrick Henry remains a thorn in their defense’s side, and Davis Mills hasn’t been able to get their offense in gear, but somehow Houston is still in a position to turn this game into something special in the second half with the right adjustments.

Down 7-3 heading into the third quarter, here is what we saw in the first half of this divisional matchup:
