How Cam Ward can make dubious NFL history if Titans lose to Colts

This Week 6 game for the Titans is a big one for Cam Ward for a few reasons.

How Cam Ward can make dubious NFL history if Titans lose to Colts

If the Tennessee Titans suffer a loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Week 6, Cam Ward could be on track to join an unusual group of quarterbacks in NFL history. According to ESPN Research, Ward would become the fifth quarterback to lose his first eight games against division opponents since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970. The last such quarterback was Colt McCoy with the Cleveland Browns during the 2010-11 season.

The Titans are currently 0-5, and a loss to the Colts would only worsen their alarming start to the 2026 season. For Ward, who has struggled to establish himself as a franchise quarterback, this particular game is of utmost importance. A victory would alleviate concerns about his potential as a long-term starter, while a loss would cement him among some dubious company in NFL history.
