Derrick Henry – Winner

For the second straight week, Derrick Henry carried the Titans to another victory. Still in contention of the last wild card spot, the Titans have to win out. After exploding last week, the Titans again turned to Henry in a rainy matchup versus the Giants.

Henry built off of his solid week 14 outing and ran all over the Giants defense. The Titans gave Henry the ball over 30 times on Sunday. He made the most of all of them, running for 170 yards and scoring two touchdowns as the Titans shut out the Giants. The Titans may have finally found a formula to keep winning with the former Heisman Trophy winner who looks like his former college self.

Henry now has a chance to rush for 1,000 yards for the first time in his NFL career. The Titans are starting to give him the carries many thought he would get as a rookie. If the Titans can continue to lean on Henry, they may see themselves sneaking into the post season.
