NFL roundup: Titans silence the hype, rout Browns 43-13

Cleveland • The Titans ignored all the hoopla about the ballyhooed Browns, and maybe made some hype of their own.

Marcus Mariota threw three touchdown passes — one a backbreaking, 75-yarder on a screen to big back Derrick Henry — and Tennessee rolled to a 43-13 rout Sunday over Cleveland, which fizzled in its highly anticipated opener.

Titans tight end Delanie Walker had two TD catches in the fourth, and Tennessee’s defensive backs intercepted Baker Mayfield three times in the final 15 minutes.

“You all can crown them if you want to crown them,” Walker said.
