Rushing offense: A+

Grading the Titans' 30-9 win over the Jacksonvil­le Jaguars on Thursday night at Nissan Stadium. His 99-yard touchdown run will be rewatched for years to come.

The Titans third-year running back turned in a performanc­e for the ages on a prime-time stage, finding the end zone four times and nearly running for more yards than the 255 total yards of offense that the Jaguars put up. A-plus almost doesn’t do it justice.
