The Tennessee Titans walked away with their third win of the season<\/a> Sunday, improving to 3-12 with a 26-9 win over the Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> in Week 16.<\/p>\n

It was the Chiefs\u2019 first game without Patrick Mahomes after he tore his ACL last week, ending his season as KC\u2019s playoff hopes came to an end with a Week 15 loss. The absence of Mahomes was a big enough challenge, but things only got worse after Gardner Minshew was ruled out with a knee injury suffered on the opening drive, feared to have also suffered a torn ACL.<\/p>\n

Minshew was replaced was replaced by third-stringer Chris Oladonkun, who went 11-of-16 passing for 111 passing yards, 0 touchdowns and 0 interceptions with an 88.3 NFL passer rating.<\/p>\n

On the other side of the ball, rookie quarterback Cam Ward had one of his better games of the season, going 21-of-28 passing for 228 yards, 2 touchdowns and 0 interceptions, marking his third consecutive game with multiple passing touchdowns. Running back Tony Pollard also had a strong day on offense with his third straight game of 100-plus rushing yards.<\/p>\n

On defense, Jeffery Simmons continues to shine for Tennessee, following up last week\u2019s touchdown reception (surprise!) with two tackles for a loss \u2014 one for a safety \u2014 and two passes defensed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Tennessee Titans walked away with their third win of the season Sunday, improving to 3-12 with a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":360543,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[436],"tags":[42382,5462,13277,49,48,6396,6681,3163,8820,1043,11286,75119,514,949,141069,2693,82,1773,11285,152681],"class_list":["post-360542","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-afc-north","tag-baltimore","tag-broncos","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-cardinals","tag-chicago","tag-detroit-lions","tag-falcons","tag-green-bay","tag-jaguars","tag-nfc-north","tag-nfl","tag-pittsburgh-steelers","tag-playoff-implications","tag-raiders","tag-sports","tag-t-j-watt","tag-texans","tag-week-16"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/360542","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=360542"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/360542\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/360543"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=360542"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=360542"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=360542"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
