Things were going so well for Marcus Mariota early in Thursday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. But that changed with one pass.
Up 7-0 and in Jacksonville territory, the Tennessee Titans had a chance to take a commanding 10-0, or even 14-0 lead. One hideous pass later, that was no longer an option. Mariota threw a pass towards Tajae Sharpe, but was well off. The pass was intercepted by Ronnie Harrison.
PICKED!

The Titans were temporarily bailed out when they forced a punt on the ensuing possession. But Cameron Batson mishandled the ensuing punt, resulting in a safety.
