It wasn’t pretty but the Tennessee Titans managed to escape Houston with a Week 18 win over the Texans, which allowed the team to secure a first-round bye and home-field advantage throughout the playoffs.
The Titans looked like they were going to cruise to victory after taking a 21-0 halftime lead, but the Texans showed plenty of fight in the second half and whittled down their deficit to 21-18.
Thankfully, the Titans were able to stave-off the comeback and ultimately emerged victorious, 28-25, in what was a nail-biter.
With the victory, the Titans will enter the playoffs with the No. 1 seed in the AFC for the first time since 2008, and are just two wins away from Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles.
