  "account": "Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator Brian Daboll remains confident in rookie quarterback Cam Ward despite the team's 0-5 start to the 2026 season. Ward, who is 3-19 as the Titans' starter, is in the midst of what could be the longest losing streak of his career, with seven losses since December 2025. Daboll praised Ward's mindset and process, stating that he holds true to his approach. Ward's statistics - including a league-low passer rating of 77.2, 896 passing yards, and 30 touchdowns - do not reflect the potential he showed during his first year as a first-round draft pick in 2025. The Titans have been hesitant to make significant changes to their plan with Ward, and have struggled in several areas on game day. Daboll will stay in the coaching box, though he has experience coaching from both spots in his career. The coach emphasized the need for improvement in third down, red zone efficiency, and minimizing turnovers and poor field position. The Titans are currently last in the NFL in yards per game (246.4) and points per game (11.6).",
