On the season, the 36-year old QB Matt Hasselbeck is connecting on 69.6% of his passes for 932 yards and five TDs. RB Chris Johnson had by far his most productive game of 2011, carrying 32 times for 101 yards, with a long of 25 yards. Thre Titans racked up 112 yards rushing on the afternoon, also a season-high. Jared Cook had the big strike, hauling in an 80-yarder early in the 2nd quarter. Defensively, CBs Courtland Finnegan and Jason McCourty had big games, each recording double-digit tackles, while safety Jordan Babineaux's 97-yard interception return for a TD late in the 3rd quarter added icing to the victory cake for Tennessee. Tennessee also recorded 4 sacks on Browns QB Colt McCoy, who attempted an NFL season-high 61 passes. The Titans held Cleveland to 84 yards rushing, and never allowed McCoy and the offense to establish any consistency. The loss dropped Cleveland's 2011 record to 2-2. Pittsburgh went into Houston on Sunday looking to re-establish their dominance as the class of the AFC. When the afternoon was over however, the Steelers record had dropped to 2-2 and several key players were banged up and they were on the short end of a 17-10 game. Despite Houston losing All-Pro WR Andre Johnson to a right hamstring injury in the second quarter of the game at Reliant Stadium. Johnson was sidelined for the remainder of the game and his status for this Sunday is listed as day-to-day. QB Ben Roethlisberger was one of the injured Steelers, although he finished the game. Afterwards, however, Big Ben was wearing a protective boot on his left foot, but refused speculation on the extent of his injury. Roethlisberger was sacked 5 times by Houston, and connected on just 16 of 30 passes for 206 yards on the day. Other injured Steelers included RB Rashard Mendenhall (right hamstring), DE Aaron Smith (sprained foot) and LB James Harrison, who was accidentally poked in the right eye. All of the banged-up Steelers are uncertain about the upcoming week. The Pittsburgh defense played well enough to win most games, but their inability to stop Foster proved to be their undoing. The Steelers gave up a touchdown on a Houston drive that lasted 10 minutes and 55 seconds at the start of the game that set the tone for the afternoon. Steeler defenders were visibly tired towards the end of the drive and never fully recovered. Now the Steelers have to win if they want to get back to the Super bowl and it all starts with the game against the Titans.
