Titans vs. Saints open game thread

The Tennessee Titans take on the New Orleans Saints in their home finale today. I don’t care about draft position at this point. The Titans cannot get the first overall pick, but they will have a top ten pick even if they win out. That should get them a number one wide receiver. That’s all that matters. Go win some games.

It would be great to see Cam Ward continue to build on his performance last week. His development is more important than anything else these last two games. He’s also the most important piece in attracting the next head...

A Titans Head Coaching Profile: Matt Nagy

A Titans Head Coaching Profile: Matt Nagy

Matt Nagy, what can be said about this guy? He is by far the most polarizing candidate in this cycle, and he is probably more polarizing than anybody in the last two cycles as well. If you ever end up in the same room as two Titans fans, one pro-Nagy and the other anti-Nagy, good luck trying to get them to find a middle ground, because both sides are convinced, and they are not going to let up.

There’s no such thing as a person who is in the middle of hating and loving Matt Nagy; everyone either loves Nagy...

Andy Reid endorses alleged Titans HC candidate Matt Nagy

Andy Reid endorses alleged Titans HC candidate Matt Nagy

Dianna Russini of The Athletic recently provided a reported update on the Tennessee Titans‘ head coaching search. Russini mentioned seven names that may appear on the Titans’ candidates wishlist. The most notable portion of the article states that Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy is viewed as a serious candidate internally.

Nagy has been frequently connected to the Titans since Brian Callahan’s firing. The reason why is extremely obvious. Nagy and current Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi spent eight campaigns spread across two separate stints with the Chiefs together. If Borgonzi is spearheading the coaching search, it would be...

Titans coaching search: Tennessee has done research on Notre Dame’s Marcus Freeman

Titans coaching search: Tennessee has done research on Notre Dame’s Marcus Freeman

We have spent a lot of time here talking about names for the next coach of the Tennessee Titans since Brian Callahan was fired in October. One name that I had not seen connected with the Titans until today was Marcus Freeman from Notre Dame. That changed today.

Jeremy Fowler mentioned today that the Titans have done their research on Freeman. The main part of his note has to do with the interest the New York Giants have in the current Notre Dame coach. Freeman was on a couple of NFL practice squads back in 2009, but has never coached...

Tony Pollard is giving the Titans something to think about this offseason

Tony Pollard is giving the Titans something to think about this offseason

A few weeks ago, it felt like a foregone conclusion that the Tennessee Titans would release veteran running back Tony Pollard from his contract this coming offseason. The Titans were fielding one of the worst rushing attacks in the league and Pollard looked past his prime. Well, the narrative has completely flipped in recent weeks and Mike Borgonzi’s decision at running back no longer looks straightforward.

Pollard experienced a breakout game versus the Cleveland Browns in Week 14. The former Memphis standout rushed for a career-high 161 yards and two touchdowns. Pollard was good against the San Francisco 49ers again...

NFL Pro Bowl rosters: Titans send two players

NFL Pro Bowl rosters: Titans send two players

The Tennessee Titans have two representatives in the 2026 NFL Pro Bowl games. Jeffery Simmons and Chimere Dike will be representing the Titans. Simmons has arguably been the second-best defensive player in the NFL this season behind Myles Garrett. He has 9 sacks on the season. That’s a crazy number from an interior defensive lineman.

Simmons has also really stepped up as a leader this season. In the past, it seemed like the Titans really wanted to sell us on the fact that Simmons was a leader. This year, in a season that has been a disaster, he has been...

Cam Ward growth means more to Titans than draft positioning

Cam Ward growth means more to Titans than draft positioning

The Tennessee Titans dominated the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 16, beating the Patrick Mahomes-less team 26-9. The Titans outgained the Chiefs 376-133 on offense. The highlight of the afternoon was the performance by rookie quarterback Cam Ward.

Ward arguably played the best game of his rookie season. The No. 1 overall selection completed 21-of-28 passing attempts for 228 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Ward set season-high marks in completion percentage (75%) and yards per attempt (8.1).

Ward’s quarterback rating of 122.3 was also a career high. You’ll hear a lot about how the Titans [“dropped” to sixth overall...

NFL Draft order: Titans fall to sixth with win

The Tennessee Titans fell to sixth in the 2026 NFL Draft order with their 26-9 win over the Kansas City Chiefs yesterday. They were fourth heading into the day. The good news is that the New Orleans Saints and the Cincinnati Bengals also won yesterday. That puts both of those teams at five wins.

Right now, just the Titans and the Arizona Cardinals have three wins. The Cardinals are one spot ahead of the Titans right now. Tennessee and Arizona both have a strength of schedule faced of .575. The Cardinals move ahead of the Titans because of the Titans’...

Titans vs. Saints opening odds: Tennessee opens as a home underdog again

For the 16th straight week this year, the Tennessee Titans are an underdog. This time, they are a three-point underdog against the New Orleans Saints at home on FanDuel Sportsbook. I thought there was a chance they might be favored in this one, but that was before I realized the Saints have won three straight games. That, technically, makes them one of the hottest teams in the NFL.

The Titans have played pretty good football themselves the last three weeks. They have won two out of three. It was the defense that let them down in the loss to the...

5 observations from the Titans’ Week 16 win over the Chiefs

5 observations from the Titans’ Week 16 win over the Chiefs

The Tennessee Titans defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 26-9 in Week 16. The Titans dominated on both offense and defense as the Chiefs were down to their third quarterback. It was the Nashville-based club’s first win in Nashville in over 410 days.

We’ve identified five observations from the Titans’ Week 16 victory.

Cam Ward

Cam Ward was efficient and accurate, especially during the Titans’ opening possession of the second half. The nine-play, 75-yard scoring drive featured 69 passing yards. Ward hit Elic Ayomanor for a 25-yard gain on a 3rd-and-4 that highlighted gorgeous over-the-shoulder ball placement. He then found...

Titans-Chiefs final score: Tennessee wins 26-9

Forget draft position. Watching the Tennessee Titans whoop up on the Kansas City Chiefs at Nissan Stadium was really fun. I don’t even care that the guy who played quarterback for the Chiefs most of the day had never thrown a pass in an NFL game before today.

Cam Ward is getting better each and every week. That is all this season was ever about anyway. He finished the day 21 of 28 for 228 yards and two touchdowns. I’m not saying that I am sold on Ward being a franchise quarterback, but it is definitely trending in the right...

Titans vs. Chiefs discussion: React to today’s game live

The Tennessee Titans will look to get their third win of the season today against Gardner Minshew and the Kansas City Chiefs. This game has been chalked up as a loss since the schedule came out last spring. Of course, that was before we knew that Patrick Mahomes would be out, and the Chiefs would already be eliminated from the playoffs.

Once again, we are faced with cheering for success on the field vs. that success hurting the Titans in the 2026 NFL Draft order. It would be nice if the Titans could win, and all of the teams around...
