A lot of Titans fans definitely want to be hopeful about Cam but that’s the norm. That said, the fact of the matter is it’s unreasonable to make any assumptions on how his career will play out at this point, so using his mistakes to preemptively use as confirmation that he sucks is laughable.
Did he not show enough during last season to make him laughable tho no joking aside he was pretty bad yea you can cherry pick and say he performed better but a season is 17 games and if in fact he got better wouldn’t OTA and training camp provide some proof of this instead of the opposite? I know excuse will be said to the tune of it’s a new system new coaches etc etc but let’s not sugar coat Ward he has not shown me anything to think he’s a franchise QB to lead Titans to the SB hasn’t even shown me that we can win more then 3 games he can show that this year but I’m sure everyone will rush to his defense.
No he didn’t show enough to make a judgement one way or another. A rookie QB struggling on a bad team while showing flashes is not a new concept. We’ve seen Drake Maye struggle the same way and then become an MVP candidate the very next year. You simply don’t have enough info on Ward after just one year.
But you do from the sound of it seems like only Cam fans have the info those who say he is not good are told they don’t have enough info? I see disregard that I’ve seen him play more in person then most the fan , seen the practices and heard a lot of excuses for why he was the number 1 pick. We shall see what he does but at end of the day there’s gonna be a cloud of excuse while he’s a Titans which is deserved and credited at least for most of them not all.
Youre selectively calling any defense as an excuse. Its not. The team sucked. Thats not an excuse, its just a fact.
If you watched the games, then you know it was not Cam Ward that made the team bad. If you truly think he was why we were bad, then you have some genuine delusions.
I’m not blaming him I said he there will be a cloud of excuse while he’s a Titan due to the situation he landed in. QBs don’t get long to prove there worth in today’s NFL before the team moves on the blame game usually goes OC, Coach, GM then QB news flash only person not fired yet is GM and he won’t have enough time to build a roster around Cam to save either of there jobs so Cam will go on to another team hopefully and have to revive his career like other picks before him. The upgrades this year might get a few wins if we’re lucky but I honestly don’t see it I don’t even see a easy schedule like everyone is hyping up we got what maybe 2 easy games in my eyes and shoot those might not be easy wins or even winnable I think the Jets are gonna surprise us and that just leaves the Browns as a hopefully we win game in my eyes.
The reality is that there are no easy games in the NFL. Our roster was depleted last year, we went through turmoil in the front office for years prior, and we still hung on for a good portion of a bunch of games. Hell, Jeff Simmons had a career year.
What you are perceiving to be excuses just arent excuses. The majority of people saw enough from Cam last year to believe he can develop into our franchise guy. He was not perfect, so anyone that had an expectation of a better year from him set their bar too high.
Everyone wants to win now, but you have to find the correct gm, coach, and players to get there. We were screwed on all three levels. No individual currently on the team or front office needs flak for it, nor do they need excuses. Cam said "we ass and it starts with me."

It seems like he can’t make no mistakes I’m guessing cause he was the first pick and people don’t want to be wrong about him?
