GLENDALE, Ariz. –** The Titans lead the Cardinals 7-0 at halftime here at University of Phoenix Stadium. A look at what's happened so far:
Quarterback Marcus Mariota completed 10-of-15 passes for 99 yards in the first half.
Running back Derrick Henry put the Titans on the scoreboard first with a six-yard touchdown run. Henry fought off Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson as he approached the goal line, and he lunged to the pylon for the score.
The scoring play capped a nine-play, 50-yard drive, and gave the Titans a 7-0 lead. The Titans converted two third downs on the drive – first on a 3rd-and-1 run by Henry, and later on an 11-yard completion from Mariota to receiver Eric Decker on third and nine.
The Titans racked up four sacks on defense in the first half – Johnathan Cyprien, Erik Walden, David King and Jurrell Casey all sacked Cardinals quarterback Blaine Gabbert.
A 58-yard field goal by Titans kicker Ryan Succop was just short on the final play of the first half.
The two teams played a scoreless first quarter.
Running back DeMarco Murray busted a 54-yard run, but it was called due to a holding penalty on tackle Jack Conklin.
Murray finished the half with 26 yards on eight carries, while Henry had 18 yards on six carries in the first half.
