What happened: A postgame Tennessee fan poll put Cam Ward atop the blame list after the 23-10 Week 1 loss to the New York Jets, with 42% of responses landing on the quarterback. The defensive line drew 3% even after New York rushed for 152 yards. Just 10% said they were confident in the team's direction after the opener.

Why it matters: The result shows how quickly frustration has centered on Ward after one regular-season game and how little margin the offense has built with the fan base. Tennessee is 0-1 and already hearing louder questions about both the passing game and the front seven. That kind of split blame usually means the concerns run deeper than one drive or one decision.

What to watch: Week 2 will show whether the Titans clean up the run defense and settle the offense after a flat opener. Another quiet day from the passing game would keep Ward at the center of the reaction.
