Tennessee Titans Steal Final Second Win At Kansas City

The Tennessee Titans find a way to win on the road in Kansas City to keep playoff hopes alive.

Former Oregon Ducks Quarterback Marcus Mariota threw for over 200 yards on the day, had an interception and Tennessee missed a key two-point conversion that would have tied the game at 17 all with just over 3 minutes remaining.

It wasn’t meant to be as Tennessee looked up at the clock down 17-16, but Mariota had some magic left in the coldest game of his career in Kansas City. He pushed the Offense 40 yards to line-up a 53 yard Field Goal Attempt by Ryan Succop – it was good and the Titans kept their Playoff Hopes alive winning 19-17 over Kansas City.
