Rookie QB Cam Ward Offers Blunt Reality Check After Titans’ Shutout Loss: ‘We Ass’
The Tennessee Titans are searching for answers after a nightmare start to the 2025 season. Following a 26-0 defeat to the previously winless Houston Texans, rookie quarterback Cam Ward didn’t sugarcoat the situation.
“We ass,” Ward said flatly when asked to sum up the team’s performance.

Ward’s frustration was evident after a game in which Tennessee’s offense struggled to move the ball all afternoon. The first-year signal caller completed just 10 of 26 passes for 108 yards with one interception, while the ground game provided little relief. Running back Tony Pollard managed 64 yards on 14 carries, but the Titans never capitalized on a Houston team that scored only six points in the first half.
The loss drops Tennessee to 0-4, raising urgent questions about when the first win might come. The schedule doesn’t get any easier — the Titans hit the road for back-to-back games, visiting the Arizona Cardinals in Week 5 before heading to Las Vegas to face the Raiders in Week 6.
Ward’s unfiltered assessment highlights just how steep the climb will be for a young quarterback and a team still searching for identity.
