Anatomy of Derrick Henry's 17-yard touchdown run
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Saturday morning, game-plan ideas still were still rolling around Mike Mularkey’s head.
He wanted the Titans to add a run play with a bit of a twist.
“A lot of it’s based on what we’ve done before against them,” he said. “It was just a look, we had the same motion, same set. We ran the same play against them eight times here for pretty successful plays, a couple of touchdowns. I personally, I thought if (Phillip) Supernaw does the same thing, and instead of coming all the way back and running the play we ran against them, if he stops and runs – we call it a lead open – they’re going to think it’s coming over here and we’re going to hit him over here.
