The Tennessee Titans are cruising to a victory over Joe Burrow's Cincinnati Bengals for the first time and they're getting it done on both sides of the ball. We saw an example of that in the third quarter when edge rusher Trevis Gipson got a strip-sack fumble on Burrow to give the Titans the ball.
Gipson beat highly-paid offensive tackle Orlando Brown to get the pressure on Burrow. The ball was ultimately recovered by Kevin Byard to give the Titans possession. Gipson did a great job to swipe down on the ball to force it out.
