The Detroit Lions had no shot against an explosive Titans offense on Sunday

Even with their ailing quarterback giving them a gutsy performance, the Detroit Lions’ depleted defense was no match for one of the AFC’s best squads. And after another lopsided defeat, the Lions moved closer to an offseason that will bring sweeping changes.

Quarterback Ryan Tannehill accounted for a career-best five total touchdowns and tailback Derrick Henry ran for 147 yards for the Tennessee Titans in a 46-25 thrashing of the Lions at Nissan Stadium on Sunday.
