Watson Leads Browns to Last-Second 27-24 Win Over Titans

The victory keeps Cleveland tied atop the AFC North and highlights the team's growing dependence on Watson's late-game drives.

Overview

  • The Browns rallied from a 14-0 first-quarter hole to beat the Titans 27-24 on Sunday with Andre Szmyt’s 32-yard field goal as time expired.
  • Deshaun Watson finished with 308 passing yards and a fourth-quarter rushing touchdown and completed all three passes on the final drive that set up the kick.
  • Tennessee's Tony Pollard ran for 129 yards and three touchdowns but the Titans squandered red-zone chances including a fourth-and-goal stop at the 1-yard line.
  • Cleveland produced a season-high 491 yards with rookie KC Concepcion catching eight passes for 129 yards and Quinshon Judkins rushing for 96 yards and two TDs.
  • The game featured special-teams drama as Szmyt missed a 43-yarder earlier and Titans punter Tommy Townsend left with a knee issue; the Browns improved to 5-2 and will travel to Pittsburgh next week while Tennessee fell to 1-6 and visits Cincinnati.
