In their first game without star running back Derrick Henry, the Tennessee Titans went into Los Angeles on Sunday night and used their defense to control the Rams in an impressive 28–16 win.

Tennessee (7–2) won its fifth straight game despite gaining just 194 total yards. But its defense sacked Matthew Stafford five times and intercepted him on consecutive passes early in the second quarter to turn the game around.
