NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Tennessee tight end Delanie Walker can pin down the biggest difference between the Titans this season and their often painful struggles of recent seasons.
These Titans don’t quit.
Marcus Mariota found DeMarco Murray for a 7-yard touchdown catch, with the running back shoving the ball across the goal line with 36 seconds left, as the Titans rallied to beat the Cincinnati Bengals 24-20 Sunday for their fourth straight win.
The Titans (6-3) have their longest winning streak since 2009 with the franchise’s best start since winning the first 10 games in 2008. That was the last time this team reached the postseason, a drought these Titans believe they can end.
“We’re never going to give up, and we’re going to continue to fight,” Walker said. “That’s the difference from years before. They didn’t have the fight. Now we have that fight.”
