NASHVILLE -- The Titans face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday at Nissan Stadium.

Here's a look at six things to watch:

Tannehill's Encore Performance

OK, so quarterback Ryan Tannehill hit it out of the park in his first start as a Titan. His 312 passing yards ending up establishing a franchise benchmark for a player's first start with the team. He completed nearly 80 percent of his passes and threw two touchdowns while guiding the Titans to a victory. On Sunday, he'll face a Tampa Bay defense that's ranked 32nd in the NFL in pass defense.

Derrick Henry's Challenge

The Buccaneers have done a great job stopping the run – they're ranked No.1 in the NFL in run defense. Titans running back Derrick Henry has been a consistent performer this season, and he's already sitting at 506 yards and five touchdowns. But it won't be easy this week. Henry expects some ugly, painful runs early. If the Titans can soften up the Buccaneers and have some success on the ground, it would sure help the passing game.

Opportunistic Defense?
