The Tennessee Titans intercepted Matthew Stafford two times in 26 seconds, and used that sequence to jump out to a surprising lead on the road against the Los Angeles Rams. Stafford’s first-half struggles, spurred by dominant play from the Titans’ defensive line, have resulted in Tennessee holding a 21-3 lead at the half.

Denico Autry got things started with a couple big plays in the first quarter, but Jeffery Simmons almost single-handedly took over the game during the second period. He came up with three sacks, repeatedly knocking Rams interior linemen back into Stafford’s face. His exploits put the Tennessee offense in good scoring position on multiple occasions, and the opportunism of Kevin Byard netted Tennessee a pick-six on a play where Stafford tried to get rid of the ball quickly to avoid pressure, but got fooled by the coverage design. 

Can the Titans hang on for the road upset, or will the Rams stage a second-half comeback? Keep it locked to our live blog throughout the second half as we keep you updated with stats, scores, and highlights.
