Cam Ward finished his preseason without a touchdown pass but having shown enough to have Titans fans excited. He played two series in Friday night's preseason game Friday night. Ward led the Titans to a touchdown on his second drive of the night, with Julius Chestnut scoring on a 1-yard run with 12:15 left in the second quarter.

Cam Ward didn't need spectacular preseason games to inspire faith among his teammates. He just needed to play like he belonged out there. And he has.
