  "account": "Nashville, Tenn. (AP) — Titans quarterback Cam Ward is making a strong impression on his new coach Robert Saleh with his flawless ball security. Ward is one of eight NFL quarterbacks without an interception this season and has gone six straight games without an interception, holding the record since Week 11. In that span, he has thrown 11 touchdowns and ran for four more. Saleh praised Ward's dedication, stating that \"he's earned the right to be trusted\" with protecting the football, as takeaways and turnovers have always been crucial for winning and losing games. Despite the Titans (0-2) not yet converting Ward's ball security into more wins, Saleh emphasizes the importance of protecting the football and forcing turnovers on defense. Ward spent the offseason learning a new offense alongside Saleh, who brought in former Giants coach Brian Daboll to run the offense. The Titans have the NFL's worst time of possession at just 22 minutes and 25 seconds over two games, but Ward's ability to protect the football and throw big plays has been a bright spot. Ward, who has yet to throw for 300 yards in any start, completed four passes of at least 25 yards in Week 2, tying his career high and ranking second among quarterbacks in the week. Ward is looking forward to facing his first defense coordinator, Dennard Wilson, with the Giants, acknowledging that it will be exciting to face a different set of players under Wilson's guidance.",
