Ward said it\u2019s \u201cnot really about bouncing back\u201d from shaky performances because the focus needs to be on getting better every day. <\/p>\n<p>Ward added that the need to do that extends beyond the quarterback position. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just think <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SRbbnAJFnZ4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">we\u2019re very mid<\/a> right now,\u201d Ward said. \u201cFrom my position to up front to the receivers position. At the end of the day, it all starts with me. I just don\u2019t think we\u2019re at where we need to be, but we\u2019ve got a little bit of time. Every day we get better as a whole. We\u2019re a young team, but that\u2019s no excuse.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 2024 Titans offense wasn\u2019t very good and rookie quarterbacks always need time to get acclimated to the NFL, so there\u2019s nothing surprising about the unit\u2019s early struggles. Should signs of growth fail to appear in the coming weeks, there will be more reason to worry about the long-term fate of the unit. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Titans rookie quarterback Cam Ward\u2019s first two padded practices in the NFL didn\u2019t go as he would have&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":48811,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-48810","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48810","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48810"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48810\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48811"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48810"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48810"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48810"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
