The Tennessee Titans return to the road still in search for their first win of the season ahead of the game against the Arizona Cardinals on Oct. 5 in Glendale, Arizona.
Tennessee (0-4) was shut out for the first time since 2019 last week in a 26-0 loss to the Houston Texans. Cam Ward expressed his displeasure in his postgame press conference after Ward’s worst output so far in his rookie season.

Arizona (2-2) last played on Sept. 25 on Thursday Night Football against Seattle, suffering its second last-second loss in five days.
Here are how the Tennessean’s experts predict Titans-Cardinals:

The Titans have reached a point in their season where scoring points would be progress. Brian Callahan’s bunch gets on the board this time, but not in a particularly meaningful way. Arizona constricts quarterback Cam Ward, and the defense runs out of steam late.

Arizona’s offense should find success against Tennessee’s secondary, while the Titans passing attack won’t take advantage of the Cardinals ailing secondary.

Right now it’s hard to figure out how the Titans are going to score points this season. Cam Ward isn’t throwing touchdowns. They aren’t giving the ball to Tony Pollard enough. And Joey Slye is kicking wide left and wide right. So maybe Chimere Dike runs a kickoff back for a TD?
