The Tennessee Titans got on the board first in their Wild Card game against the Baltimore Ravens, and it was quarterback Ryan Tannehill’s favorite target this season who made it happen.

Tannehill connected with wide receiver A.J. Brown for a 10-yard touchdown to give Tennessee an early lead against the Ravens in a rematch of last year’s Divisional Round game won by the Titans.

Tannehill hit Brown with a fade in the corner of the end zone:

Brown beat fellow Pro Bowler Marlon Humphrey on the play. Humphrey was looking for offensive pass interference because Brown gave a little shove with his left arm, but the officials didn't call it.

The score capped off a 10-play, 70-yard drive for Tennessee which took 6:11 to complete. Brown caught three passes for 52 yards on the drive, including this 28-yard connection:

Brown made his first Pro Bowl in just his second season in the NFL. He hauled in 70 balls for 1,075 yards and 11 touchdowns in the regular season, so he's no stranger to the end zone.

This strong start is also a continuation of Tannehill's play this season. The veteran quarterback threw for 3,819 yards and 35 touchdowns this season as Tennessee racked up an 11-5 record to win the AFC South.

The Titans are looking to advance to the Divisional Round for the second straight year after reaching the AFC Championship Game last season. Tennessee made the score 10-10 after a bad Lamar Jackson interception, but Baltimore has since made it 10-10 as the first half winds down.
