The Tennessee Titans defeated the Atlanta Falcons, 23-20, on Friday night to even their preseason record at 1-1.
Nearing the end of their preseason/training camp road trip, the Titans decided to rest some of their veteran starters and turn the keys over to their young guys. While they eventually pulled out a victory, there were ups and downs and some sloppy play.
Overall, it was a solid effort that did add some clarity for the future, and some provided some performances to build upon.
