This game was not over until C.J. Stroud took a safety with just over one minute to play. The Texans were down by just five points, so Titans fans all felt nervous and were dreading a last-second game-winning drive.
Instead, the Titans’ defense stood strong and forced Stroud out of the back of the end zone. Until that point, it really seemed like anybody’s game.
