Titans QB Will Levis
"On how he feels after today's win
"Feels awesome. A lot of people have been working hard to get a win like this, and just happy, from top down in the whole organization. We talked all week about how much it means to help the front office, Miss Amy [Adams Strunk], and everybody. That win was for her, and just good to come here and get a win."
On today's rollercoaster game
"We were rolling from the start. The pass game was cooking. Just felt really good with where the ball was getting placed out there. Kind of hit a bit of a rut, those couple of turnovers, then the fringe field goal range was tough. Obviously, the pick six is hard to come back from, but I was proud of how we all bounced back from that, defense, special teams, everybody. We had our moments of adversity and were able to come through when it mattered."
On his mindset after today's interception
"Just put it behind me. Just get the ball back and can't really think about it. Didn't make any necessarily huge plays myself after that, but I just put the ball in play and made the right decisions and let our guys finish out that game. Just proud of how everyone finished."
On what he was thinking when TE Chig Okonkwo broke away
"That was awesome. We've been setting that up all year. That's the scheme we've been running out of that formation, the naked off of it. That's as wide open as you can get, and Chig's specialty is his athleticism. His speed. I'm curious to see what he hit on his GPS there on that one. He had the ball, I think, 15 to 20 yards down the field before anybody on that side even knew he had it. It was cool to see him finish that. That's the skill set he has that makes him special."
On what's clicking to make the explosive plays happen
"I think credit to the coaching staff dialing up some awesome stuff that one to Nick [Westbrook-Ikhine] was a complement of something we showed in LA. Just a double move off that. He ran it to perfection. We got him blocked up really nice. I was back there for a couple of hitches and able to let it fly. And, the third-and-long to Calvin (Ridley) was sweet. That's a very coverage-specific play that we just went up there and speed braked it. Knew I had it. Took my five. Again, ample time. Was able to put it up and let him come across the field and make a play. Those are two definitely big ones that we needed to make to win that game."
On the change in protection and production between halves
"Credit to the guys up front, holding their own. Still myself, I can look at what I can do better, just get the ball out and check it down here and there. Couple of opportunities where I felt like I could've got the ball out. I'd like to know how many sacks of one- or two-yard losses I've had this year, like trying to fight back to the line of scrimmage. Sometimes you've just got to take them, and just credit to those guys and Nick [Westbrook-Ikhine] for stepping up and playing well."
On how RB Tony Pollard's performance helps balance the pass and run game
"Tony has been a baller all year for us. With Tyjae (Spears) being out, we knew his workload was going to be extensive this week, and he was up for the challenge, and credit those guys up front. Couple trickier schemes that we were able to pull off and rip some big ones. That touchdown run was sweet, that trap we ran. Tony sees it well. He gets the yards he needs to and more, and it's fun to watch him and spectate back there."
On how today's win can be a jumpstart for the remainder of the season
"Just take it one game at a time. We knew we needed to get this one. Glad we did, and we're on to Washington. Four more divisional games in these last six games, obviously very important with how things shake out. We're just going to take it one day at a time."
On getting his first divisional win in the AFC South
"Felt great. Yeah, it didn't even hit me until after the game. I was about to throw my jersey in the wash, and I was like, 'Actually, let's hold onto that one.' It was a cool moment. To get down here and play top team in the division right now, away, and get the win, gives us a lot of confidence going forward."
On the key to sustaining today's performance
"I think we've still got to be more consistent. As we said, mistakes on both sides of the ball. We were able to kind of just overcome and hedge them in that respect, but we've got to be better operationally. Couple of things in that first half that came up and ended some drives, made us kick a field goal instead of getting an opportunity for a touchdown. But we've got to look at our offense and how we can just operate better to make these games not be as close as they are."
On what today's performance says to the team's naysayers
"I'm proud of how everyone has handled themselves. There are teams across the league in similar situation we are, just the bottom of that pack. We feel like the football we put on tape, how we prepare, how we strain every single game, that we weren't going to be seen as a team that's given up. It's credit to everybody just powering through, blocking out all the noise, keeping the blinders on and just getting a win."
