The Houston Texans are currently leading the Tennessee Titans with a score of 23-3 in the second half of their game. The Texans' offense has been methodical, with two drives consisting of 13 plays each, both resulting in points. C.J. Stroud has been efficient for the Texans, throwing a 12-yard touchdown pass to Brevin Jordan and leading the team to a defensive score as well, contributing to a 17-0 lead after a strip sack. The Texans' defense has held up, preventing the Titans from scoring a touchdown and limiting Derrick Henry's impact on the game, although Henry did surpass 1,000 rushing yards for the season. The Titans' only points came from a field goal, and their defense has been unable to contain the Texans' drives. Ryan Tannehill replaced the injured Will Levis for the Titans. The game is being broadcasted on various radio stations and apps, and the Texans' performance so far has been steady, with a notable 94-yard touchdown drive in the second quarter. The Texans led 20-3 at halftime.
Derrick Henry over 1,000 yards rushing for the season. #Titans

#Jaguars defense has held Carolina to just 33 yards total offense and negative yardage on three of five posssessions. Jax leads 9-0 at half, feels more like 20-0 with this @panthers offense.
Folk from 53 yards is good. It's 20-3 Texans over the #Titans at the half

#Jaguars can't cash in on first-and-goal from 7. Another McManus FG from 24 yards gives Jax 9-0 lead with 2:45 left in 2Q. Jags are 8-0 this year when leading at half.
Another field goal in Jacksonville, as the Jaguars take a 9-0 lead on the Panthers.

Another FG for the #Texans who now lead the miserable #Titans 20-0.
Titans keep the Texans from the end zone and they settle for a 38 yard FG. 20-0 Houston.
It's now 20-0 #Texans over the #Titans

Panthers hanging around here after forcing another Brandon McManus field goal. Jags up 6-0 midway through the 2Q.
Strip sack for the touchdown and it's 17-0 @HoustonTexans! 📺: FOX https://t.co/BSHTSWb5bJ
Wow! Texans up 17-0: https://t.co/w0bBe0Frfg
It's now 17-0 Texans over #Titans
Levis sacked, fumbles. Texans pick up fumble and run it in for a touchdown. It's 16-0, pending a PAT #Titans
That touchdown drive of 94-yards and over 7 minutes is exactly what the Texans want to do if the Titans are going to take the explosive plays. Houston leads Tennessee 10-0 in the second quarter. #Texans #Sarge #TexansWire
That touchdown drive of 94-yards and over 7 minutes is exactly what the Texans want to do if the Titans are going to take the explosive plays away. Houston leads Tennessee 10-0 in the second quarter. #Texans #Sarge #TexansWire
Texans go 94 yards in 13 plays. Stroud throws a 12-yard TD Pass to TE Brevin Jordan. Texans lead 10-0. Stroud was 6 of 7 for 44 yards and a TD on the series. Singletary carried 4 times for 31 yards, including a 24-yard run.
So instead of forcing a 3 and out on defense and having the #Texans punt out of their own end zone, the #Titans run into the punter, give the #Texans a first down, and the #Texans drive 94 yards on 10 plays to take a 10-0 lead
Hard to see this #Titans' defense holding up well enough to win today. #Texans are up 10-0 after a strong drive covered 94 yards and found the end zone.
CJ Stroud finds Brevin Jordan, throwing across his body to get it there, for the touchdown. And the Texans are up 10-0 on Tennessee.
XP Good. 10-0 Texans lead. 13 plays, 94 yards after Caleb Murphy extends it for them.
The Texans two drives have been 13 plays each, both ending in points. #Titans bailed them out with the running into the punter on the second one, but other than that Texans have been super methodical. 25 offensive plays already and just four third downs.
C.J. Stroud finds Brevin Jordan for a 12-yard TD pass. Big-time drive by the Texans. Texans 10 Titans 0, 10:10 left in 2nd quarter
After one quarter, the Texans lead the Titans 3-0. #Texans #Sarge #TexansWire
End of the 1st quarter. Texans 3 Titans 0. Good defensive performance by Texans so far. Offense has been steady. They seem to be trying to set up the big play.
End of 1st: #Texans 3 #Titans 0
Such an easily avoidable running into the kicker by Caleb Murphy. Instead, the Texans maintain possession. #Titans
Caleb Murphy running into the kicker for the #Titans, who keep making plays that get them beat. First down #Texans
Jaguars up 3-0 Colts up 7-3 Texans up 3-0 Jaguars need Colts, Texans losses to clinch AFC South today
End 1Q: #Jaguars lead 3-0, will have 3rd-and-4 at own 49 to start 2nd.
Nice break up by SMB. Titans get the Texans off the field on 3rd and 5
Nice breakup by @seanbunting_. Texans punting to #Titans
Texans force Titans to punt after Anderson pressures Levis into an incompletion. Texans take over at their 6 leading 3-0.
Texans go 58 yards in 13 plays on their first series. Fairbairn 28 FG gives them a 3-0 lead. They couldn't score after getting a first down at the Titans 10. Stround was 5 of 7 for 38 yards. Incompletions on his last 2 throws.
The Texans get on the board first and lead the Titans 3-0 midway through the first quarter. #Texans #Sarge #TexansWire
In Jacksonville, the Jaguars lead the Panthers 3-0, for those curious.
The Titans played good defense in the red zone, hold the Texans to a field goal. Decent drive on offense though. Texans 3 Titans 0, 7:17 left in Q1. https://t.co/G1SKf73Tf1
Methodical drive until the Texans got to the 10-yard line. #Titans shut them down in the red zone. So a 28-yard FG gives HOU a 3-0 lead.
Titans red zone defense continues to impress…Houston settling for a FG on an opening possession where they moved the ball down to the 20 with ease. 3-0 Houston lead.
It's 3-0 #Texans over #Titans
#Titans get a stop, Texans kicking FG
Impressive opening drive by Beathard, gets stalled on 3rd-down sack by Brian Burns. McManus 35-yd FG gives #Jaguars 3-0 lead, the first time they've led since 28-21 in fourth quarter against @bengals on Dec. 4.
Big sack from Brian Burns. Right after a clutch QB pressure the play before. Comes off the field a bit gimpy, though. That stops the Jaguars' first drive; Jacksonville settles for FG. 3-0, Jaguars lead the Panthers.
#Texans on the move, at the #Titans 10, first and goal
Brandon McManus makes a 35-yard field goal following the sack by Burns. Jaguars lead 3-0 to start the game. #Panthers
Brian Burns talked about not having a lot of opportunities in obvious passing situations. Got one there and came up with his seventh sack to force a Jags FG. 3-0.
Brian Burns sacks Jags QB CJ Beathard on third down, forces Jags to settle for a game-opening field goal. Jags 3-0.
This might be where I take a shot at the end zone. Good drive so far. Texans have it at the Titans 29 yard.
#Titans will get the ball first to start this game against the Texans. I'll do tweets and you can respond to those tweets or share them or even ignore them but nevertheless there will be tweets. Live blog for @Tennessean below. Let's football. https://t.co/mepuOKAYqM
#Titans get ball first vs #Texans, who won toss and deferred
An additional thought: The Texans have to stop Derrick Henry again. The Titans are going to try and run it. The Texans haven't allowed a single rusher to run for more than 100 yards in a game this season. https://t.co/HaLCI8G9FR via @houstonchron
