The Tennessee Titans stunned the Miami Dolphins with two touchdowns in the final two-plus minutes on Monday, pulling out a surprising 28-27 victory for their first road win of the year. Quarterback Will Levis met with the media afterward and talked about ''the biggest win I've ever had, especially on a stage this big.''

00:00 >> That was awesome.
00:01 I had to keep my composure a little bit, make sure we finished the job.
00:05 But I had trust in our defense, they're gonna get the job done,
00:07 just like they did all night.
00:08 I mean, they won us that game tonight.
00:10 They shut down some really potent offense.
00:12 And if it wasn't for those couple turnovers there in the red zone,
00:14 it would have been even more impressive.
00:17 So props to them.
00:18 And then obviously we were able to get the job done with our operational efficiency
00:22 on those two two-man drives, so I'm just pumped all around.
00:25 >> What was your first 300-yard passing game and
00:27 also your first come from behind game winning drive?
00:30 As you go through that,
00:31 what were some of the thoughts on the last drive there for you?
00:35 >> Just trust in what I'm seeing, trust in our guys being in the right spots, and
00:39 just throwing it to the open guy.
00:41 Sometimes it's as simple as that.
00:43 Our guys held up up front, didn't feel any pressure for the most part.
00:47 And when that happens, we have time, and the dudes are in the right spots.
00:52 It's a beautiful thing, and that's what happened on those two drives.
00:55 >> We can obviously hear the locker room behind us, but
00:58 what's it like walking in the locker room like that?
01:00 And how much of a relief in it in some ways to get that?
01:03 >> Yeah, it stinks.
01:05 I kinda got hung up on the field with the interviewing stuff,
01:07 cuz I kinda missed the, I feel like the main celly.
01:10 But we're gonna have a fun ride home, and
01:12 it's gonna be a celebratory 12 hours at least before we get our mindset on each
01:17 thing.
01:18 >> What did you do after the misfire on the pitch?
01:21 >> Yeah, that was a nightmare.
01:23 And obviously, no one wanted to look at me, no one wanted to talk to me after that.
01:29 And just to move on from that, or sorry, I didn't wanna talk to anybody after that.
01:33 I just wanted to move on and be ready to just attack that impressionable drive that
01:37 I know we'd be able to get.
01:38 And I said that we put up a good chance, and we did.
01:42 And I'm proud of our guys for bringing it and just executing the situation.
01:45 >> Well, down 13, rookie quarterback, what was your mindset, though,
01:48 going back out there?
01:49 It seemed like you were throwing the ball with confidence and
01:51 running what you wanted to run.
01:53 >> Yeah, I mean, I was just sticking to the game plan, just throwing to the open guy.
01:57 Trusting that I didn't necessarily need to be forcing anything, but
02:00 we did need to get going.
02:01 So I had the medium of pushing it down the field, but throwing to the open guy.
02:07 And luckily, a lot of the stuff that we were dialing up was working.
02:10 And I was able to put the ball around to a bunch of different dudes and
02:14 keep them guessing.
02:14 So just proud of all the guys and how we were able to operate.
02:17 >> Will it obviously happen, the easiest season for the team.
02:21 How nice is it to be able to enjoy a moment like this against a team Miami,
02:25 they're a fun offense.
02:26 >> Shoot, I mean, yeah, this is a big confidence booster for us, for sure.
02:29 This is not the record we would hope to have at this point in the season.
02:33 Not the position we hope to be in, in the playoff race and all that.
02:36 But all we can do is just keep pushing.
02:38 And we talked about that all week, and we had an opportunity to come in and
02:41 spoil their party.
02:42 And be a really good football team and build confidence going forward.
02:46 And I'm so glad we were able to do that.
02:47 >> Yeah, you had to throw down the field to Hopkins and
02:52 the concentration to bring it in.
02:55 I think it was the 45 yarder.
02:57 Do you ever just stop and say like, man, this dude is crazy?
03:01 >> Yeah, that was the one at the end of the half.
03:04 >> Yeah.
03:05 >> Yeah, and he tells me sometimes, hey man, just throw it up to me.
03:09 And I'm like, yeah, okay, sometimes that's okay, sometimes it's not.
03:12 But each and every week I feel like I'm slowly believing that sometimes it is
03:17 okay just to throw it up to him.
03:18 But gotta be smart with it.
03:19 And he had a beat.
03:21 And I think I underthrew it a little bit for
03:23 him to just have the body control just to kinda catch it or track it and catch it.
03:27 He's special in that respect.
03:29 So glad that we were able to get him the ball as much as we could get him the ball.
