Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel is all about trickery. The Titans extended their first-half lead over the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC title game when Ryan Tannehill found offensive lineman Dennis Kelly for a one-yard touchdown (via NFL).

The Titans extended their lead to double digits in the second quarter on Sunday in the AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs. Tennessee might be the third No. 6 seed in Super Bowl history to reach the promised land if they escape Kansas City with the win.

Tennessee previously deployed some trickery when fourth-year running back Derrick Henry—a bruising rusher having a historic postseason—ran for a four-yard rushing touchdown earlier in the game out of the wildcat. Henry had thrown a touchdown against the Baltimore Ravens last week.

Despite Tannehill not being an overwhelming, gunslinging talent under center, the Titans' quarterback has his team in front over Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs in the first half of the conference championship.
