Titans score first first-quarter TD of the season as Mike McCoy era opens with a bang

One thing has changed one quarter into the Mike McCoy era for the Tennessee Titans: A first-quarter touchdown.

Cam Ward found Chimere Dike for a 38-yard touchdown pass on the Titans’ second drive of the day against the New England Patriots on Oct. 19, with 5:04 to play in the first quarter.

The score was the Titans’ first first-quarter touchdown of the season.

Tennessee has often had to play from behind from the start in most games this season. But the Titans took a 10-3 lead on Oct. 19 against the Patriots.

Ward and the Titans offense scored on their first two drives of the game, adding a Joey Slye 49-yard field goal on the opening possession.

QB coach Bo Hardegree is still calling plays despite the head-coaching change. But something felt different about the Titans offense in the first quarter under McCoy, the interim head coach.
