After Saturday’s result, the Titans have the luxury of playing things safe today. Due to tiebreaker purposes with the Steelers next week, Tennessee’s week 17 matchup with the Texans means a lot more than their week 16 matchup does against the Saints.
If there is one thing you need to know about the #Titans playoff scenarios, it’s this... the Titans would control their own playoff destiny again with a Steelers loss to the Jets today, regardless of whether they win or lose against the Saints.

For the Titans, it’s a late season opportunity to get running back Derrick Henry healthy, perhaps ahead of a future playoff game if things fall right.
