NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Matt Hasselbeck threw for 240 of his 350 yards in the first half, and the Tennessee Titans beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 23-17 Saturday in their final home game, trying to keep faint playoff hopes alive.
The Titans (8-7) at least snapped a two-game skid and finished this season 5-3 at home under first-year coach Mike Munchak. They head to Houston for the finale with a chance at their first winning record since 2008.
Rob Bironas kicked three field goals, including a pair of 51-yarders, and Jamie Harper ran for a touchdown. Jared Cook had a 55-yard TD catch and finished with 169 yards receiving, a franchise high for a tight end.
Maurice Jones-Drew, the NFL's rushing leader with 1,334 yards coming into the game, ran for 103 yards and a touchdown for the Jaguars (4-11). He has a career-high 1,437 yards this season.
