The Tennessee Titans are down big at the half in their Week 17 matchup with the Houston Texans by a score of 20-3. The Titans' offense was able to put up three points on their final drive of the first half, but it could have been more if not for left tackle Andre Dillard giving up back-to-back sacks.

This is the first of the two sacks. Dillard even gets some help from running back Tyjae Spears, but it seems to do more harm than help. Dillard gave up a clean sack all on his own the very next play. Both sacks being credited to rookie edge rusher Will Anderson.
