Locked On Titans - Daily Podcast On The Tennessee Titans - Cam Ward Faces BIGGEST NIGHTMARE in Tennessee Titans vs. Cleveland Browns & Slowing Shedeur Sanders

Episode Date: December 4, 2025

The Tennessee Titans have been presented a winnable game, in theory, when they take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 14, but Cam Ward is being presented with his greatest nightmare. Ward has struggled against man coverage this season and Cleveland plays it about as much or more than anyone else. Add in Myles Garrett, Ward could be dealing with a deadly combination. Ward will need help from offensive tackle Dan Moore who has been up and down this year and some help from Chimere Dike, the only receiver he can trust against man coverage. On defense, the Titans will need Jeffery Simmons, Arden Key and a bounce back performance from Kevin Winston to slow the Browns run game and attack Shedeur Sanders. Speaking of Sanders, he has struggled early and playing zone coverage to confuse him should give the Titans a chance to win. Ultimately, the Browns defense is the only good unit in the game though and is the reason Tyler thinks the Browns can pull this off in a low-scoring battle. Subscribe to the TicTacTitans Film Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@TicTacTitans TicTacTitans Merchandise: https://dixons-dream.square.site/shop/tictactitans-gear/C3AAPNWXSXA6SBYG3USV2I7R?page=1&limit=30&sort_by=category_order&sort_order=asc Follow Tyler on Twitter @TicTacTitans Follow the show on Facebook @LockedOnTitansPod Subscribe to the Locked On Titans YouTube channel:https://www.youtube.com/c/LockedOnTitans/videos Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Aura FramesFor a limited time, save on the perfect gift by visiting https://AuraFrames.com to get $35 off Aura’s best-selling Carver Mat frames - named #1 by Wirecutter - by using promo code LOCKEDON at checkout. FanDuelIf you want to be right in the middle of the action this season, visit FanDuel.com and place your NFL livebets all season long.  PrizePicksDownload the PrizePicks app today and use code LOCKEDONNFL to get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup.Click Here: https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/LOCKEDONNFLGametimeDownload the Gametime app, create an account, and use code LOCKEDONNFL for $20 off your first purchase.

It's your team every day. to my everydayers out there, tuning in Monday through Friday. Couldn't do it without you guys. If you aren't an everydayer, you need to be one. But with that being said, Cam Ward's biggest nightmares are going to be on display

against the Cleveland Brown's defense. Everything that Cam Ward has struggled with the most so far this year is what Cleveland is going to represent. Number one, Miles Garrett. And we're going to talk a ton about Miles Garrett, but they have a dominant, number one pass rusher, which has been an issue for the Titans all year long and has

to have Cam Ward shaking in his boots. Not only that, but the Brown's run defense, top 10 in the NFL, the Browns have a good run defense holding opponents to 101 rushing yards per game. And then finally, the Browns are one of the heaviest teams in the NFL in cover one man. What's cover one man? Well, you got man coverage across the board on the five eligible receivers. You have an intermediate zone defender perusing the, you know, middle of the field, the intermediate to short distances, and then you have one deep defender to make sure that they don't get beat deep. Cam Ward truly has been the worst quarterback in the NFL against cover one man. There is no doubt about it. 47.5% completion percentage is 29 to

61, only 348 yards, two touchdowns, one interception. Ward is the second worst quarterback in the NFL in EPA per play against cover one man. Like it is a disaster. He cannot beat man coverage right now. Now, that's not all Cam Ward's fault, okay? Think about why Cam Ward can't beat man coverage. One, man coverage is going to allow the defense to bring more people. Yeah, you could have an intermediate hook defender over the middle of the field or you could blitz that player. And now you're sending five. the biggest problem is no one on the Titans can create separation against man. Nobody on the Titans can win consistently against man coverage.

They're a slow wide receiver group. They don't have great route runners. It is just schematically an issue for the Titans' talent on offense outside of Cam Ward. But regardless, he has struggled against cover one man. Worst quarterback in the NFL against cover one man. I mean, it's bad. Okay? So, they're not going to be able to run the ball.

They have a dominant, maybe the best pass rusher in the history of the NFL. He's in the conversation in Miles Garrett. And they play 43.9% man coverage, 34% cover one man. So this is a team that is truly dedicated to man coverage. Whereas the teams the Titans have played in recent weeks, like last week against Jacksonville, one of the zone heaviest teams in the NFL. Seattle, another team that can be very zone heavy as well.

The Titans have seen mostly zone coverage over the last three weeks. So this is going to be a big time switchup back to what Cam Ward struggled with the most throughout the first part of the season. So what do the Titans need to do? Okay, the number one key to victory is Cam versus Cover 1. The Titans have to do things to create openings against man coverage.

You're not going to win one-on-one. consistently just, hey, my guy is going to beat you in man coverage against the Brown secondary. That's not going to happen. Okay? Tyson Campbell is a decent player. We know that Denzel Ward is a great player, one of the best corners in the NFL. So, what do the Titans have to do? Number one, they need to go with heavy formations with multiple tight ends. Get two or three tight ends out on the field.

And then shift those heavy personnel packages to wide, go five wide. and Gunner Helm and Chica Conquo are both ideally suited to be split out wide. They have the ability to do that. So put a two tight end set out on the field. Get the Cleveland Browns into their base defense with more linebackers on the field and then shift out to a wide one. And like we saw at the beginning of the game last week, you could throw those quick five wide passes,

get three or four yards and get your drives going. The Titans did it early and they went away from it as the game went on. It's like they had a good opening script of like, hey, we're going to run the ball, we're going to play in heavy personnel, we're going to shift out of that heavy personnel and throw the ball on first down like they did the two first downs of the game, and then they totally went away from all of it and reverted back to the offense that we've seen for most of the season.

So the Titans have to keep going with what they did last week. They did well. They need to use motions. They need to use shifts. They need to use bunch formations to try to mix up the man coverage and get manufactured, separation for a wide receiver group that has been terrible against man coverage this year. So the number one key to victory for the Titans is they must help Cam Ward overcome his biggest issues

and they must have a good schematic plan for cover one man that includes motions, shifts, heavy personnel, formation shifting out into wide sets and wide formations. That's what the Titans have to do to take advantage of the Brown's heavy, heavy man coverage defense. So it's going to be a big week for Cam Ward to show if he's in, proved in that regard at all throughout the season. The second key to victory is third and miles. The Tennessee Titans are going to be in third down situations nonstop. They're not going to be able to run the ball against the Cleveland Brown's defense.

It's just not going to happen. So what are you going to do when it's third and miles? Not third and long, third and miles. Okay? Because if you don't stop Miles Garrett, if you don't prevent Miles Garrett from wrecking this game, he will single-handedly win this game for the Browns. He has 19 sacks on the season. So, here's the good part about using heavy personnel packages.

You can have an extra offensive lineman next to Dan Moore. You can have a tight end, two tight ends next to Dan Moore to help with Miles Garrett. You flatten the line of scrimmage so that he can't get to the edges as much. When you have these shifts and these motions, you can use condensed formations to get better opportunities to the outside and use people as more natural chippers where they don't actually have to chip Miles Garrett but since they are next to Dan Moore in a condensed alignment right next to him

they're going to give Miles Garrett more traffic to get through before he can get off. You're going to have to slide the formation that way and essentially let Dan Moore and Peter Scorancey play two on one against Miles Garrett. That would be my plan for the Titans as well so they absolutely have to have a plan for third and miles because they're not going to be able

to run the football. The final key to victory to me is on the defensive side of the ball and it's stop the run. You must stop the run. The Cleveland Brown's offense is terrible. They have no confidence in their offensive line. They are the lowest graded pass blocking unit in the entire NFL this season per pro football focus.

This is a team that is terrible in offense, pretty much as bad as the Titans. Think about that. This is a team that is as bad as the Titans on the offensive side of the ball. But in my opinion, they are a tick better because they have good offensive coaching for Kevin Stefanski, who with minimal talent

on the offensive line, limited talent in the skill position players, bad quarterback play all season. Despite that, the Browns do smart things to try to help their offense out. Okay? They at least try to do things like get the screen game going, run the ball out of heavy personnel,

use heavy play action. All the things that we have been asking the Titans offense to do all season long to help a rookie quarterback, the Browns do do those things. Now, they don't have a lot of talent on offense and their offensive line is really bad. So, of course, it doesn't work and they don't score points, but at least they are doing the right things,

which is why when Browns fans tell me that Kevin Stefansky is a terrible coach, I just, I've been watching Brown's film all week. the last couple of games with Shador Sanders. And the things that Kevin Savansky does on offense are the things that we hope that the Titans would do for Cam Ward, but they don't. So with that, if you stop the run, and Shador Sanders has not played well.

He made a good throw down the field in the game against the Raiders that was a 50-yard chuck. He made a good throw to Harold Fanon Jr. in the game against the 49ers for the Brown's-only touchdown. But he has missed a lot of throws. he's backing up in the pocket he's taking sacks, he's not getting rid of the ball all these other things

so if the Titans stop the run which the Brown's run offense is better than the Titans like make no mistake about it it's better than the Titans they've had 140 yard game and 158 yard game they ran for 138 yards last week against San Francisco like they can get off

in the ground game but I don't think that their run game is so good that the Titans shouldn't be able to beat them up up front and stop them from running the ball. Now, if the Browns do run the ball for the Titans, if the Browns go for over 100 rushing yards against the Titans, the Titans are going to lose. So, the keys to victory for me and let me know your keys to victory

down below in the comments. Cam versus Cover 1, 3rd and Miles, have a plan for Miles Garrett and stop the run of the Cleveland Brown's run offense. With that in mind, though, time to zoom in a little bit. Talk about the players to watch in this game. And again, I'm going to start on the offensive side of the ball,

Titans podcast, breaking down what the Tennessee Titans need to do to help Cam Ward overcome his

biggest nightmares against the Cleveland Browns. We talked about the keys to victory, having a plan against the cover one man, helping Dan Moore with Miles Garrett. We talked about stopping the run. Now I want to zoom in and talk about the players that can get these things done. And again, we start on the offensive side of the ball for the Titans where obviously my player to watch number one on offense is Cam Ward. We talked about why this is a big challenge for Cam Ward schematically what he struggled with the most this year going against man coverage

he's obviously got to step up and play better than he has against man coverage for most of the season but I want to move to Dan Moore Dan Moore is really the big key here and the reason for that is because Miles Garrett primarily

now he moves around okay I'm not going to sit here and tell you that Miles Garrett will rush from the same exact place over and over and over again and he'll never change alignment. The Browns will move Miles Garrett around. Don't mistake me here. However, however, okay,

Miles Garrett has basically played like 450 of his 575 snaps going over the left tackle on the right side of the defense. 448 plus 8, which quick math, 456, plus 13, which is, Quick math, 469. 469 of the 5754 defensive snaps Miles Garrett's had this year have come on the right-hand side. So, it's going to be Dan Moore. And the reality is,

Dan Moore has played against Miles Garrett a ton throughout his career. This isn't going to be new for Dan Moore. He's seen Miles Garrett when he was playing with the Steelers two times a year, every year non-stop. Okay? And we know that Dan Moore really struggles against the elite pass rushers in the NFL, but he's going to have to bow his neck. He's going to have to come to play.

Again, I mentioned it last week. I think the Titans are in a tough spot here. I think this is a bad matchup, even though the Browns are a good team. But Dan Moore has given up eight sacks and 36 pressures so far this year. if he has a game that represents that level of play the Titans are screwed basically no matter what they do you're going to get chip help from tight ends wide receivers maybe an extra offensive linemen

running backs they're going to slide that way and help let Peter Skoronsky help Dan Moore I would imagine but he still has to do his part he's still going to be tasked with one-on-one opportunities he's still going to have to play a good game against Miles Garrett if the Titans have any chance of winning. So he's going to get help, but those people can't do it for him.

Especially, the Titans' offense has this problem where because the offensive line at offensive tackle specifically has been so bad, they've had to leave in a tight end, leave in a running back. And then they only have three guys running out in the past formations or into routes, passing routes.

So it's like the defense gets to play seven on three and there's nobody open. And that's a problem for the Browns offense, too. The Browns offense has a lot of similar issues where they don't trust their offensive line, they don't trust their offensive tackles, they've had a lot of injuries and things like that. Jack Conklin has been terrible.

We'll talk about that in a second. So, like, they are playing offense as if they don't trust their offensive line, which think about the Eagles, or think about what the Colts have been able to do, or think about, you know, the Detroit Lions over the last few years. Think about how much of an advantage it would be

if you didn't have to help your offensive tackles non-stop every single passing snap. And you could just send five guys out into routes non-stop. Man, what that would be like. But regardless, Dan Moore has to come to play. Dan Moore has to be good in this game. Cam Ward, Dan Moore, and the final guy on the offensive side of the ball

that has to play well for the Titans is Chim Ray DeK. Chim Dekay is the only player, the only player on the team in my opinion that is naturally suited to beat man coverage and it's because of the speed. 4-3 speed for Chimrae Dike he had his best game of the year

which trying to remember exactly which game it was was against Indianapolis the first matchup against Indianapolis I think it was yes the first matchup against Indianapolis no the second matchup against Indianapolis My apologies. Second matchup against Indianapolis. Eight targets, seven catches, 93 yards,

and Indianapolis played a ton of man coverage in that game. Chim DK has the speed to beat man coverage. And not only that, not only that, but you look at Cleveland. And I talked about the fact that Cleveland has a pretty good secondary. Okay, they have a pretty good secondary. But if you were to attack, if you were to attack somebody in Cleveland's secondary, I think it's Miles Harden. Miles Hardin is a guy that you would want to go after,

and Miles Hardin, for the most part, plays in the slot. 335 slot snaps this year for Miles Hardin. He is a guy who is primarily going to play in the slot. Seventh-round draft pick for the Browns out of South Dakota. Last year, Chim DeK against Miles Hardin, is a massive, massive advantage for. for the Titans. Can they get to it? Can they motion ChimDK?

Get them behind a couple of guys in a bunch and then run them on a drag route. Can they use him down the field to beat one-on-one coverage? Can they get him on a quick out? Can they get him on a quick slant? They have to get Chim D.K. against Miles Hardin going. That is a primary advantage. You don't want to attack. Frican Denzel Ward That can't be the plan Okay

And quite honestly Tyson Campbell since he came over Has been pretty good for Jacksonville Been targeted 34 times Only gave up 19 catches Not too bad Okay So Miles Harden

And again Denzel Ward 46 targets 28 catches You do not want to throw at Denzel Ward you do not want to throw out the outside corners of the Browns. You want to attack their slot corner, Miles Harden. You want to attack their linebackers. Get them in man coverage against tight ends.

Devin Bush. Carson Swessinger. Carson Swessinger. Excellent, excellent linebacker. Brown's draft class this year has been really, really good. But regardless, that's where you have to attack. Okay. Miles Harden, the Brown's linebackers, that's what you're looking to do. And in-man coverage, that means your slot guy.

That means Chimdy. has to have a big game. Now, on the defensive side of the ball, my number one player to watch is Jeffrey Simmons. And Jeffrey Simmons and Arden Key is my second player to watch. They need to attack the right side

of the offensive line for the Browns. Cam Robinson has been pretty good at left tackle. Joel Betonio, really good left guard. Ethan Posich, been pretty good at center for the Browns this year. I know that their run blocking has been bad. There's been people in and out of the lineup, you know,

but those three guys who are currently playing right now actually have been pretty solid, okay? And they were pretty decent last week, I'm honest with you. However, the right side of the offensive line. Wyatt Teller is a good player. I want the Titans to sign Wyatt Teller for right guard in the all season. That's going to be one of my big pushes.

I want to get Wyatt Teller on the Titans. But Wyatt Teller didn't finish that game. He's banged up. A former first round pick in Tevin Jenkins. actually was getting those opportunities at right guard. And then our old friend, Titans legend, Jack Conklin, has been the right tackle for the Browns most of the year. He has been bad.

He has been bad. Conklin's given up four sacks, 24 pressures. It has been a struggle for Jack Conklin. He's old. He's had a lot of injuries. He's beat up. He has not been good this year. And in his stead, when he's been injured

because he's been banged up a ton and didn't finish last game against San Francisco, K.T. Levinson has been the guy in his place. Arden Key has not been good this year. Jeffrey Simmons has been incredible, but Arden Key has not been good this year. Okay, no doubt about it. But Arden Key is still good enough to take advantage of K.T. Levinson, who, and I had it right with Jack Conklin for Sacks 24.

pressures in eight games. In eight games this year, KT. Levinston, five sacks, 20 pressures. Cam Robinson, five sacks, 20 pressures. Cam Robinson's been better as of late, but again, Arden Key has a great matchup here. Arden Key has a great opportunity to dominate. game. Can he do it? Can he even play well? And that could allow Jeffrey Simmons to dominate

the game because Simmons should have a good opportunity to win no matter who's at guard for the Browns as well. So if Simmons and Arden Key can attack the right side of the Browns offensive line, they're going to get pressure on Shador and he's going to make mistakes. Now I also got to shout out my final player to watch and it's Kevin Winston. He needs to rebound. And number one, I think the Titans are going to play a ton of big nickel because the Browns like to go heavy formations. The Browns use a ton of tight ends. The Browns love going heavy sets. That's what the Browns love to do

in their offense. They are a heavy offense and the Titans could go to their base defense, but I think that it's likely we see a ton of big nickel with Kevin Winston as the nickel cornerback so that he can help against the run game. And not only that, but the Browns do have some speed

and Jerry, Judy, and Isaiah Bond. They can attack down the field and teams have been attacking the middle of the field and attacking Kevin Winston and Amon and Cody Barton and Cedric Gray and we need Kevin Winston to rebound in a big way here against the run and rebound with the zones over the middle and deal with the speed so Kevin Winston is a guy that I have my eye on in this one but with the keys to victory the players to watch all out of the way now it's time to get into some predictions and give you your rooting guide for the Tennessee Titans tank in week 14 Titans fans. Let's cap off today's edition of the Locked on Titans podcast.

We went over my keys to victory in this game, overcoming Cam Ward's biggest nightmares. We talked about my players to watch in this matchup with Dan Moore against 3rd and Miles. and then the Titans defensive line with Jeffrey Simmons and Arden Key against a susceptible offensive line of the Cleveland Browns on the right side but now I want to go to my predictions for this game my game and score prediction

who wins how much fantasy gambling and a tank guide for Titans fans but before I do thanks again for making locked on Titans your first listen each and every day Monday through Friday Tennessee Titans content all year round always for free make sure you get subscribed stay subscribed again it's your team every day

but again I have been teasing it On yesterday's crossover episode, throughout today's episode, I do not think the Titans win this game. I think the Brown's defense is way too good. The Titans defense is not good, although they've been better as of late. The Brown's offense is not good. The Titans offense is not good.

So the only good part of this game is the Brown's defense, and I think they dominate. Now, the Titans special teams is also good. My guy Spencer German from Locked on Browns said yesterday that he is worried about the special teams The Browns have not been good on special teams and it is not an area of expertise for the Cleveland Browns So if the Titans can find a way to take advantage

There are some points There are some opportunities That's what they'll need But I don't think there's a lot of points in this game I think this is 16 to 10 Browns. I think the Browns get their only touchdown on a Mila Garrett strip sack

or Mila's Garrett moves Cam Ward into someone else who gets a strip sack I think there's a strip sack gives the Browns great field position and they cash it in with a touchdown. I think the Titans just don't move the ball at all all day. It's just going to be a struggle all day long. So I think the Browns win this one

that's probably best for the Titans moving forward but, man, it's going to be annoying after, you know, Shador has a bad game, doesn't do anything, makes like one or two good plays, and then everybody says he's better than K.M. Ward because the Browns beat the Titans when the Titans are the worst team in the NFL. I'm just, I'm already annoyed by it, talked about it earlier this week. Not excited for it.

But with that in mind, we move to my beautiful dark twisted fantasy player of the week. And it's Chim D.K. I mentioned Chim D.K. earlier against the Browns Man coverage. Also, you get the added value of he could return a punt for you. And that'll give you points as well. I think if you're looking for a cheap flex option in your daily fantasy lineup, you've got buy weeks injuries as we head towards the playoffs for season long lineups. I think that Chim DK makes a ton of sense.

It can bring you great value this week. I think he has a great week here. And then finally, keeping it plus 100. For me, again, I told you, I like the Browns in this one by six points. I would not take the Titans plus three and a half. In my opinion, plus three and a half is just Vegas begging people to bet on the Titans. They're begging people to bet on the Titans. Because I think that's a bad line.

I think it should be four and a half, five and a half. I think the Browns are significantly better than the Titans. The over under is 33.5. You guys know I hate over unders. Don't like them, hate them. 33 and a half, though, I would take the under if I had to. I'm not betting it like I would. The Browns minus 3.5.

but you know if you want to take an over and under I'm going under I don't think there's a lot of points in this game now as for the tank guide folks obviously if you want the Titans to get the number one overall pick you need the Tennessee Titans to lose this game and then the other two teams that play this week that have two wins which are the Titan again someone DM me this week and asked me about this I don't know how you guys keep I say it every single episode and every Sunday for sure, but the number one tiebreaker for draft picks is strength of schedule. The Titans have the hardest schedule in the NFL. It's not going to change.

So that means that the Titans will lose the tiebreaker with any other team if their records are the same. So the Titans have to have the least amount of wins in the NFL with no ties or they're not going to get the number one overall pit. So if you want the Tennessee Titans to be able to win another game and still get the number one pick, you need the Saints, the Raiders, and the Giants to win a game. The Giants are on a buy this week. The Saints have to go on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Yeah, right. And then the Raiders host the Denver Broncos. Now, the Raiders played tough with the Denver Broncos when they played on that primetime game in Denver, but Denver just played terrible. They're going to play better this time because they have better coaches and better players and they've seen what the Raiders do already. So, if you're somebody who cares about the Titans' draft pick, basically all you can do this week is hope that the Titans lose.

Because the Saints and the Raiders are surely not winning. They have as good of a chance to win this week as the Giants. and the Giants don't play a game. Now, the Ravens host the Steelers, and while that may not benefit the Titans' number one draft pick, the Titans still need the Ravens to make the playoffs to that fifth round pick to jump to a fourth round pick. And Draymont Jones already has a sack and a half,

so we just need another half sack to get to two, and then the Titans pick that they got from the Ravens goes from a fifth to a fourth. That's massive. The Ravens play the Steelers this week again. Big game for the Ravens to win the AFC. North get to the playoffs because if the Ravens don't win the AFC North, I don't think that they make the playoffs. So that's what you need to be rooting for this week.

Go Saints, go Raiders, go Ravens. I don't like that one. That doesn't make me feel good. But either way, that's the reality that we're living with right now. But that's going to do it for me today, folks. I'll be back with you guys on Sunday immediately after the game going live here on the Locked on Titan YouTube channel. As always, I am your host, Tyler Roll.
