Joshua Kalu interception: Titans DBs pull of play of the year to pick off Justin Herbert
As far as interceptions go, we may have just witnessed the best ever in the Tennessee Titans and Los Angeles Chargers game. With Justin Herbert and the Chargers offense rolling near the redzone, the quarterback launched a ball toward paydirt.
It sailed to the left of the endzone before a serious heads-up play from the Titans' secondary led to Joshua Kalu's incredible interception.

What are the Titans' playoff odds?
The incredible interception kept the scores level as the Chargers were in field goal territory. Many fans were in disbelief at what they had just witnessed. With the ball seeming destined to go out of bounds, the quick thinking of Elijah Molden led to a bizarre play that could be considered the play of the year in the NFL.
Titans aiming to clinch AFC South title
The AFC South is now up for grabs after the cowboys-blowing-17-point-lead-ot-loss-vs-jaguars" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-is-sponsored="false">Jacksonville Jaguars shocked the Dallas Cowboys 40-34 in overtime in the early window of games. Now sitting at 6-8, the Jaguars are hot on the heels of Tennessee, who sit at 7-6.
The remaining three games for Tennessee will prove pivotal to their playoff chances. With the Houston Texans taking the Kansas City Chiefs to overtime and the Cowboys-Jaguars finish, it is all to play for in the AFC. None of those remaining games are easy and after seemingly having the AFC South title in their hands, it is now all of a sudden slowly slipping away from the men of Nashville.
What's more, the Jaguars hold the tie-breaker, having beaten Tennessee 36-22 in Week 14, which will make the final regular season game that bit more interesting.
Nonetheless, the heads-up play from the Tennessee defenders who picked off Herbert remains the top highlight for the time being. The Chargers quarterback was in superb form until the incredible interception.
Whatever highlight makes its way onto the reel of Week 15 will find it hard to top that of Joshua Kalu.
