It’s a position the Tennessee Titans have become accustomed to early in the season.
The Titans could use a win, particularly in their division. They are winless through four games, next-to-last in the NFL in scoring at 13.8 points per game and last in the league in total offense with only 261.3 yards per game. They have dropped 10 straight division games, dating back to a November 2024 win at Houston, and haven’t won a home game inside the division since spoiling Jacksonville’s playoff hopes in the 2023 season finale.
Ward said that needs to change. “That’s one thing that we want to do, own the South,” he said.
The Titans will try to fix things Sunday when they host another 0-4 team, the Houston Texans, in an AFC South contest in Nashville. They look at us the same exact way we look at them we are both 0-4 teams, both looking for a win this year. As a result, head coach DeMeco Ryans has taken over defensive play-calling duties from coordinator Matt Burke.
“But they are going to be excited.
Ward said he’s eager for another chance to get into the win column. “We have a great opportunity against them,” he said.
Houston has experienced significant regression on that side of the ball, going from first in the NFL in yards allowed and second in points allowed last year to 20th in yards and 27th in points .
