New Orleans Saints take care of business in Tennessee but have their sights still set on the No. 1 seed

After a record-breaking performance by future Hall of Fame quarterback Drew Brees the New Orleans Saints (11-3) visited the Nissan Stadium to face a hungry Tennessee Titans (8-6) team who have their sights set on making the playoffs.

The Tennessee Titans and quarterback Ryan Tannehill got off to a fast start jumping ahead 14-0 on the New Orleans Saints defense.

Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill connected with his tight end Jonnu Smith for a 41-yard touchdown strike, and later Titans rookie wide receiver would take an end of the round for a 49-yard touchdown.

The New Orleans Saints offense got off to a sluggish start with nine first-half penalties for 65 yards, causing the Saints offense to stall going three and out on their first four possessions of the game before finally settling down.
