Locked On Titans - Daily Podcast On The Tennessee Titans

At 1-7, key veterans like Tony Pollard, Calvin Ridley, Jermaine Johnson II, and Alontae Taylor are rumored to be on the trading block ahead of the Nov. 10 deadline. But is stripping the roster for draft capital worth the risk?   On this episode, we debate the trade deadline dilemma: Does selling off veteran leaders hurt the growth of young players, or is acquiring future assets the only way forward for a rebuild?

The Tennessee Titans have a Tony Pollard problem and it affects Cam Ward the most. Pollard could fetch a great trade return before the deadline, but as the Titans offense has improved, Pollard has followed. His emergence creates an interesting dilemma where things could go from potential trade to an extension. Outside of Pollard, Calvin Ridley needs to be the top name on the market for the Titans as the veteran receiver truly has no role here. On defense, things are more complicated as Jermaine Johnson is more disposable than Jacob Martin and Amani Hooker may have a real...

Cam Ward had his best game ever as a Tennessee Titans in the overtime loss to the Cincinnati Bengals and he showed that he still has the potential to be the Titans face of the franchise. If that is the case, then the Titans position just got even more advantageous as most assumed a veteran would be needed. More needs to be seen from Ward, but him emerging the back half of the year is the best possible outcome for the team. Ward showed it on tape as he consistently delivered to the middle of the field and found...

The Titans drop to 1-7 following a heartbreaking 43-36 overtime loss to the Bengals. While it marks Tennessee’s fifth one-score defeat of the season, rookie quarterback Cam Ward enjoyed a massive breakout game. Ward threw for a career-high 304 yards and two clutch fourth-quarter touchdowns without throwing an interception. We dissect the chaotic game and debate if this offensive spark proves the rebuilding franchise is finally heading in the right direction.

The Tennessee Titans got the best game of Cam Ward's career and still lost in overtime to the Cincinnati Bengals. Ward's play is the best thing the Titans could hope for going forward whether they win or lose the rest of the games. Ward made his mistakes, but this was by far his best outing. The defense also made some plays as Amani Hooker, Jacob Martin and Alontae Taylor had great games. While this performance is certainly not a merit for the defense, it was nice to see them make some plays in a barn burner. Tony Pollard and...

The Tennessee Titans are now entering their REAL rebuild after taking half measures for years. They finally dealt Jeffery Simmons and will now get a chance to use the draft capital to stock the cupboards with talent. What that will look like is of great interest and Tyler has a perfect plan to start things off. Letting Mike Borgonzi correct a mistake, signing Mac Jones as veteran competition and getting Jeremiah Smith while still gaining extra picks is what it could look like. However, some fans are choosing to go doomsday and decide nothing will ever get better and...

The Tennessee Titans have dealt Jeffery Simmons to the Chicago Bears and they can't stop there. Mike Borgonzi needs to sell everything he can like Tony Pollard, Calvin Ridley, Jermaine Johnson or anyone who can have any value around the league. Not only do the Titans need to collect more picks, but they also need to LOSE games to make their pick as valuable as possible. Outside of that, the Titans also have to HATE WATCH the Chicago Bears now as their demise could help the Titans.

BREAKING: The Tennessee Titans are trading away superstar defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons to the Chicago Bears for a massive trade haul with two first round picks. This is exactly the kind of package the Titans simply couldn't turn down. This is a bigger return than anyone expected for Simmons. This was the right move for the Titans as well, sitting at 1-6 with no hope any time soon. This team should be in a full rebuild and accepting that reality is what needed to happen as Simmons alone was not enough to change this team's fortunes. However, the fact...

The Tennessee Titans are not favored against the Cincinnati Bengals and most are not expecting them to win, but Cam Ward building on last week and having a good performance on offense will be something fans do hope to see. Ward was better than it seems last week, but the bad plays were very bad. Speaking of offense, Joe Burrow will be putting up points and the Titans defense got roasted last week against a much-less talented offense in the Browns, so finding a way to get pressure will be the only chance they have. The Bengals defense is...

The Titans spent a league-high $319 million on free agents this offseason, but the price tag hasn't lived up to expectations. At 1-6, we debate if Mike Borgonzi's free agent class of 2026 has been a failure or if they're just off to a slow start.

The Tennessee Titans are 1-6 and Cam Ward is not playing great football. Ward now enters a match against the Cincinnati Bengals that could result in him seeing the bench if things go poorly. With a bye week around the corner, Mitch Trubisky would have time to get acclimated before the back half of the year. Tyler does not want to see Ward benched, but it isn't hard to see how that could be an option when there are other things working on offense like the offensive line and Carnell Tate. Those are things to be excited about no...

The Titans returned home and to the loss column with the 27-24 heartbreaker to the Cleveland Browns. We discuss the defense's inability to finish on the final drive and debate why Cam Ward and the offense are inconsistent in crucial moments.

The Tennessee Titans lost to the Cleveland Browns, but the way it happened was terrifying. Cam Ward was mixed again with some scary mistakes and Brian Daboll called plays like he was terrified of his quarterback. All the blame cannot go to Ward though as his wide receivers dropped the ball in big spots and Daboll had a terrible sequence on the goal line in the first half. However,  it is hard to not look at the quarterback and think that is the biggest issue. The reality is, the Titans were in great position to win this game as T...

The Tennessee Titans have a chance to have the most positive week in recent memory. Robert Saleh flipped the narrative on Jordan Elliott story and kept the Titans from getting drug through the mud, something Amy Adams Strunk has be to appreciative of. Not only that, but Saleh can add a win to it this weekend against the Cleveland Browns and put this team on it's first win streak since 2022. To do so, the offense must have a Cam Ward plan for man coverage. The Browns primarily run man and Cam Ward has had his struggles against it, but...

The Tennessee Titans are dealing with massive distractions and this game against the Cleveland Browns will be a test of Robert Saleh's culture. If the Titans can overcome the Jordan Elliott gun incident drama, the negativity surrounding Alontae Taylor's benching and the general bad vibes that come with being 1-5 to start a win streak, it would mean great things for the culture Saleh is creating. However, that will come down to some key matchups like the Titans offensive line against the Browns defensive line. The Browns have real talent and it will be a much more difficult test...

The Tennessee Titans got a win on the board against the Indianapolis Colts and that distracted from the fact that Cam Ward continues to play poor football. While his performance against the Colts wasn't quite as bad as it seemed, the reality is Ward is playing on easy mode right now and still struggling to make simple things happen consistently. Some may not like this, but it is clearly by design as Brian Daboll is treating Ward like a rookie. Vibes have been high for the Titans after a victory, but now they are back doing weird things again...

Winless no more! The Titans defeated the Colts on Sunday, 26-20, for their first win of the season. The difference? The defensive line played its best game of the season anchored by star DT Jeffery Simmons. In this episode, we discuss how the Titans can build off this performance.

The Tennessee Titans buried the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday and got their general manager Chris Ballard fired. Not only did this outcome cost Ballard his job, but it likely saved Robert Saleh and Mike Borgonzi as well by avoiding any chance they go 0-17. It also showcased everything that is improving and everything we should be excited about going forward. Including Jeffery Simmons on defense. Simmons had a dominant performance and gives the Titans defense a chance to succeed every play and if the rest of his rush mates can keep it up, this is how the Titans win...

The Tennessee Titans won a football game. It is hard to believe, but it is real. This offense looked like a disaster as it has all year for most of the game, but came to life at right time after the defense gave them chances all day long. Jeffery Simmons and the secondary created turnovers and prevented points. This is how you expected the defense to look coming into the year. However, Cam Ward did not play well for most of the game. It certainly looked rough and Ward can't keep playing like this, but this is exactly why...

The Tennessee Titans offense has been a disaster through five weeks, but the Indianapolis Colts defense is also very bad. This gives Cam Ward a unique opportunity to build some positive momentum to turn his season around and score some dang points. It would also be wise for the Titans to take the game out of Ward's hands as much as possible with the run game. Getting to play action off the run game will be what opens up this offense. On the flip side, the Titans defense absolutely must stop the the Colts trio of weapons in Jonathan...

The Tennessee Titans season is in a bad place and what makes it worse is Cam Ward is playing bad football as well. This week presents a real opportunity though for Ward to turn things around. The Indianapolis Colts defense is terrible. Pass rush, coverage, run defense -- all of it is poor. They give up yards and points. If Ward and the Titans offense can't get things going this week, they simply never will. Usually we discuss the trenches in the key matchups every week, but this week is all about the perimeter. The Titans wide receivers have...

The locker room was quiet, defeated, and searching for answers after a brutal 26-3 blowout loss to the Houston Texans.  In this episode, we break down what went wrong on both sides of the ball and discuss where the Titans go from here. Can veteran leaders like Jeffery Simmons hold this locker room together, or is a full-scale rebuild unavoidable? We debate what needs to happen to salvage any hope this season.

The Tennessee Titans have until the bye week to win some games or a serious conversation needs to happen about how their trade activity should look. Building a culture is key, but if the Titans are winless at the bye, they owe it to themselves to cash as many veterans in as possible for picks and that includes Jeffery Simmons. The Titans shouldn't auction the all-pro, but if they get an unreal offer, they must take it. Less controversial names are more obvious like Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears and Calvin Ridley. Each have some potential, but come with some...

The Tennessee Titans' season is going horribly and they are functionally eliminated from the playoffs. This leaves fans wanting change, but out of the all of the possible moves, the most likely change right now is Cam Ward's status as starting quarterback. That is an easier move for the franchise than replacing all of the coaches or general manager.  If the Titans go full replacement for Ward, trading for Justin Herbert or drafting a rookie like Arch Manning could be something that charges up the fan base. However, the likely move will be adding some veteran competition and names l...

Things have gone from bad to worse in Nashville. The Titans dropped to 0-5 following the lopsided 26-3 loss to the Houston Texans. After three straight weeks of close defeats, Robert Saleh's team takes a massive step back. The players in the locker room described the performance in one word: embarrassing.

The Tennessee Titans lost in pathetic fashion to the Houston Texans on Sunday where the offense just looked absolutely lifeless. Zero run game, the pass blocking wasn't even good and Cam Ward struggled to get anything going. Whether it is turnovers or the plays being called or the execution, nothing has changed on offense in a long time for the Titans. The defense actually stepped up and held the Texans down for a while. This was a perfect example of a Robert Saleh defense, but even then, the Texans committed many penalties and self-inflicted wounds that prevented this from...

The Tennessee Titans need to win a game and there is no better chance than taking on the defeated Houston Texans. The Texans may be the better team on paper, but the Titans have some clear advantages and that starts in the trenches. Jeffery Simmons and the defensive line must attack CJ Stroud, but that means Cam Ward must do his part and put up some points. Special Teams must stop being a problem every week and the Texans also have similar struggles there. On defense, stunts up from have given the Texans problems and the Titans need to...

The Tennessee Titans and Houston Texans both sit at 0-4 with the matchup ahead really putting a stamp on the season. The team that wins could use the momentum to fix their broken season. Losing, well that would certainly be a punctuation on a failed start that won't get better. Cam Ward has had his struggles, but there is no time like the present to start to breakout and with CJ Stroud playing well, Ward has to outduel him to pull off the upset. The trenches will always be key and the defensive line for the Texans is always...

The sky feels like it is falling in Nashville after a brutal 0-4 start to the season. On this episode of the Titans Squad Show, we are taking a hard look at Robert Saleh and his coaching staff through the first four weeks of football. Is it genuinely time to panic, or is there a realistic path to turning this around if the coordinators adjust?

The Tennessee Titans are 0-4 and heading straight towards a terrible season, but they have a chance to correct things this weekend against their hated rival in the Houston Texans. With a division game against the Indianapolis Colts, a matchup with the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals before the bye, there is a stretch of winnable games that could flip the momentum. However, to do that things must get fixed like Cam Ward's ball placement and the coverage issues with Robert Saleh's defense. There are some things that are doing well though and need to keep growing. Ward's playmaking...

Cam Ward did not play a perfect game in the Tennessee Titans loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Ward made plenty of mistakes, but he also corrected a lot of issues that had been plaguing him early in the season. Better mechanics, route reads and pocket management were all over the tape AND Ward brought back his signature playmaking style that had been missing from the first three weeks. Titans fans would be wise to see it through with their young talented passer. That patience should include Brian Daboll. Titans fans are shooting their arrows at Daboll, but he is...

The Titans drop to 0-4 following the 24-18 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. While there were some positive signs, such as Carnell Tate's 145-yard day, there were also several mistakes that doomed the Titans. Not to mention, Lamar Jackson carved up the defense in the first half leading to another L for Tennessee.

The Tennessee Titans dropped to 0-4 on the season in another pitiful loss, this time to the Baltimore Ravens. Coaching was the biggest issue of the day as Robert Saleh's defense got carved up and his decisions as a head coach made you scratch your head as well. Brian Daboll is clearly terrified of Cam Ward even during a decent outing and there is no way the offense nor Ward can become their best with that sort of mindset. As for Ward, it was a mixed bag. Certainly, it was his best performance of the year so far, but...

The Tennessee Titans face the Baltimore Ravens in Week 4 and the red zone will be key, particularly for Cam Ward. Ward struggled in the red zone last week and it lost the Titans the game. A bounce back performance in this key area gives the Titans a chance at an upset. Special teams mistakes have also killed this team, so as always, that unit and the turnover battle are important. Ward gets a head start on his preparation for the Ravens defense after seeing a similar scheme last week. Dan Moore will be tested at left tackle by Trey...

The Tennessee Titans take on the Baltimore Ravens in Week 4 and things are already heating up as Derrick Henry threw some shade at the Titans in a playful way at his press availability on Wednesday. Henry was joking, but definitely wanted it to be known the Titans didn't try to bring him back. That will create a buzz, but Henry's departure was a clear mutual move. That doesn't make it above criticism though. Moving to the game this week though, the Titans, as always, will need to win the battle in the trenches and the linebackers matching up with...

There is no way to sugarcoat it! The patience in Nashville is wearing thin. Following a brutal 12-7 loss to the New York Giants, sealed by a heartbreaking, late-game red-zone interception, Titans quarterback Cam Ward is heavily testing the faith of the fanbase.

As the heat turns up and the team drops to 0-3, the big question on everyone's mind is: Are we still looking at the franchise cornerstone of the future, or has the margin for error shrunk so much that it's time to start thinking about a replacement?

The Tennessee Titans may be 0-3 and drowning in sadness, but there are still some bright spots that deserve our attention like Carnell Tate. Tate had a great game against the New York Giants and was routinely open. Tate should have scored twice and would have had a much bigger day with better quarterback play. JC Latham is also taking a massive step forward right now and has been close to dominant on the right side of the offensive line. On defense, Robert Saleh's unit is finding a groove in the last six quarters and looking exactly how we...

The Tennessee Titans have yet to win a game and the play of Cam Ward at quarterback is under the microscope. Sticking with Ward is the best move, but the numbers paint an ugly picture and it is statistically unlikely Ward overcomes his first 20 games to become the franchise leader. Ward isn't the only problem though as Robert Saleh is showing discouraging signs whether in his game management or in his press conference comments. Saleh being an issue is almost more problematic than Ward. Finally, the Titans are now dealing with an injury concern as starting guard Fernando Carmona...

The Tennessee Titans just experienced a nightmare loss highlighted by the poor performance of Cam Ward. Ward was a disaster and it was a game that should haunt Titans fan dreams. Add in the special teams mistakes, coaching errors and drops, it makes for an all-too-familiar disgrace for Titans fans. The defense will get blame, but realistically they did the best they could with the offense completely falling apart. However, Robert Saleh led the defense much better than the team because the game management was awful and that has been a theme early this year. This realization makes things...

The Tennessee Titans once again face a must-win game if they are to turn things around and save their season. Divine intervention has allowed for the Titans to get a second chance and they must take advantage with how banged up the New York Giants will be. Missing Jaxson Dart, Brian Burns and Deonte Banks, the Giants are not at full strength and the Titans have no excuse but to win. To do so, they must get more aggressive on offense when they pass and take some shots downfield. With the pending weather though, the run game will stay...
