Music City Miracles on Cam Ward
From the article
Ward should aim for about 3,500 passing yards in 2026. That total would have placed 13th in the league last season ahead of Jordan Love and Aaron Rodgers... Titans fans are hoping Ward takes a Drake Maye or Caleb Williams-like sophomore step.
STACKED’s take
Ward projected for 3,500+ passing yards in year two; 13th-place finish would signal success.
Ward is expected to take a sizable step forward as a sophomore after an impressive rookie season despite lackluster surroundings. The source projects Ward should aim for about 3,500 passing yards in 2026, which would place 13th in the league ahead of Jordan Love and Aaron Rodgers; if he starts all 17 games, he'd need to average roughly 206 passing yards per game to reach this target. The Titans invested heavily in his development by hiring Brian Daboll as offensive coordinator and adding Wan'Dale Robinson and Carnell Tate at wide receiver. Titans fans are hoping Ward takes a Drake Maye or Caleb Williams-like sophomore step; Maye finished fourth with 4,394 passing yards and Williams was seventh with 3,942, suggesting Ward could flirt with 4,000 passing yards if he thrives in Daboll's system. About 3,500+ passing yards would signal a success, with expectations high for Ward to establish himself as the Titans' franchise quarterback in 2026.
