2026 Tennessee Titans Preview: Roster, Odds & Win Total

The gist

1. Cam Ward improved from -0.2 EPA/play to slightly better in the second half of last season, and replicating that growth early in 2026 is the key thing to watch.
2. The Titans rebuilt three offensive line spots after ranking 32nd in pass protection, leaving almost no room for underperformance without derailing Ward's development.
3. New offensive coordinator Brian Dable is seen as a Josh McDaniels type who thrives designing systems but struggled as a head coach, making him a high-upside but unproven bet.
4. A softer schedule in weeks 9-17, including Jacksonville games at 2.5-point spreads, is where the Titans are most likely to collect wins if Ward settles in.
