Titans at Chiefs

This was supposed to be a wild-card game. This feels like a wild-card game. The 6-seed at the 3-seed.

The reason we didn't see it in the wild-card round? Because Ryan Fitzpatrick and the tanking Dolphins went up to Foxborough and beat Tom Brady and Bill Belichick in Week 17.

These two teams played in November in Nashville. Chiefs were up 5 under two minutes and forced a turnover on downs.

Then the Chiefs couldn't get a first down, couldn't snap a field goal, couldn't stop the Titans, got back in field goal range and then got a field goal blocked. Titans were 4-5 at the time. If the Chiefs execute one of those plays, the Titans drop to 4-6.

A month ago, needed to beat the Texans to win the division and they couldn't. Henry ran 21 times for 84 yards. Tannehill threw for 279 yards, two tds, 1 int. They still felt like a pretty typical 8-6 team.

Now they're coming in as a one-man wrecking crew with a running back who remembered he's built like a semi truck. In their two playoff wins, Henry has ran for over 180 yards and Tannehill has thrown for under 100.

In both games the Titans were leading at halftime and able to control the game. We know the Chiefs can dig themselves out of a hole. Can the Titans do the same?
