The Tennessee Titans will attempt to bounce back on Sunday when they travel to Baltimore to take on the Ravens in Week 4 action at M&T Bank Stadium.
The Titans had a chance to pull out a much-needed victory against the New York Giants in Week 3, but Cam Ward’s last-minute end zone interception sealed their fate. The Ravens had an experience, traveling to Rio de Janeiro to pull out a victory against the Dallas Cowboys.
This will not be easy, and the Titans enter the week as heavy underdogs. But to take a step forward, they need a bounce-back from quarterback Cam Ward and an offense that again struggled in New Jersey.
Here are the top five storylines in the Titans-Ravens Week 4 matchup.
Derrick Henry is still the king
Derrick Henry continues to prove he is a dominant running back
in the league, and for Titans fans, watching this game will hurt even more with his record-setting early career in Nashville. Henry wasn't only a fan favorite; he was also the heart and soul of the Titans’ offense for eight seasons, including his incredible 2020 season, when he broke 2,000 yards.
Henry continues to be a touchdown machine and has already accumulated 10 touchdowns through three games, more than the Titans have scored as a team this season. This game could be painful if the Ravens ride Henry to victory, and it will be the storyline everyone follows.
Can Cam Ward bounce back?
The Titans’ offense struggled against the Giants, and Ward’s interception was the nail in the coffin, driven in far too early. Head coach Robert Saleh continues to preach patience with the young signal caller and has tried to come to his defense, but that is getting harder with each poor outing.
While the interception will catch the headlines, his inaccurate throw on fourth down earlier in the contest when he had a wide-open receiver might have been an even worse play? Ward has struggled in 2026, and his adjustment to the new offense has been uneven at best. It
Who will handle the right guard position?
The Titans lost starting guard Fernando Carmona and backup Jackson Slater against the Giants, and now have some questions heading into this week. Now Atonio Mafi and Garrett Dellinger will likely battle to be the starter and the swing interior lineman.
Mafi is familiar with offensive line coach Carmen Bricillo and could have the inside track after being claimed off waivers, and Tennessee waiving Dellinger to make room for him. But Dellinger has been in the system longer and has played 40 preseason snaps.
This will be a situation to monitor as the week plays out.
Will the first half offense be better?
Yes, Tennessee’s offense has struggled all season, but it has been historically bad in the first half. Over three games, they haven't gotten anything going to start off games, and they are consistently putting the defense in a hole.
While the players haven't made plays, the playcalling has been questionable at best, and it's been completely different in each half. This trend can't continue, and the Titans must fix it if they want to win their first game.
Will special teams show up?
In 2025, the Titans’ special teams were special, and they were often the best part of every game. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case in 2026.
All-Pro return specialist Chimere Dike has fumbled three times and lost two through three games; the units have been penalty magnets; Joey Slye has struggled with kickoffs and missed a field goal; and Tommy Townsend has been inconsistent.
If Tennessee wants to finally win a game, they will need to play complementary football, and it will start with special teams getting a jump.
