In Photos: Titan's Dramatic 34-31 Victory Over Bills

NASHVILLE, TN — Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry scored three touchdowns on 143 yards rushing against the Buffalo Bills, but his teammates on defense were the stars of this Monday night football game.

During the game's final seconds, with the Titans up 34-31, the Bills drove to the Tennessee 3-yard line and appeared poised to win with a touchdown or, at worst, tie the game with a field goal.

Instead, the Bills went for it on fourth and inches with a Josh Allen quarterback sneak. The Titan defense pushed through the Buffalo line and took Allen's legs out from under him, leaving him short of the first down.

Buffalo had turned the ball over on downs, and the Titans' victory was secure.
