While expectations were high for QB Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders last season, there’s no question no one saw that type of season coming. Daniels finished as the QB4 in fantasy football while also boosting the Commanders to a playoff berth and the NFC Championship Game. There’s no surprise that we’re already making comparisons between Daniels and his impact on the Commanders with 2025 No. 1 pick Cam Ward and his potential impact for the Tennessee Titans.

Daniels finished his rookie season with 3,568 passing yards, 25 TDs and 9 INTs while posting a 100.1 passer rating. He also ran for 891 yards and six TDs, winning Offensive Rookie of the Year. Daniels also boosted the value of top WR Terry McLaurin, who had 1,096 receiving yards and 13 TDs to finish as the WR6 in fantasy last season.

On a recent episode of the Yahoo Fantasy Forecast, analyst Matt Harmon revealed he thinks that Ward can give us a “Bud Light” version of what Daniels did for the Commanders last season, taking that offense from being a bottom-dweller to top-five in the NFL. In terms of scoring, the Titans ranked 27th in the NFL with 18.3 points per game. Tennessee was also towards the bottom in yards per game, ranking 26th with 304.2.
Harmon points out there’s still plenty of talent on the Titans offense. WR Calvin Ridley put together a decent season despite poor QB play with 64 receptions for 1,017 yards and four TDs. They also have Tony Pollard (and Tyjae Spears) at RB and added more depth at WR with Tyler Lockett and Van Jefferson, plus a revamped offensive line. TE Chig Okonkwo is another name that pops out as a value if Ward can elevate the offense.

Kačena pro nás znamená klid. Fanoušci by přijeli i do Štýrského Hradce, říkal Saňák
Trenére, proč na pozápasové povinnosti nedorazil Martin Svědík?Musím ho omluvit. V zápase ztratil hlas. Dali jsme do toho všechno i my trenéři a klukům pomáhali.Nebyli jste spokojení s výkonem?Upřímně říkám, že ne všechno se povedlo. Pořád to ladíme. Zkrátka jsme museli v zápase zabrat úplně všichni a Martin to odnesl hlasivkami. Ale jsme rádi, že jsme vyhráli. Zápas podle mě vystihuje slovo „efektivita“. Přijeli jsme si přesně pro takovou výhru, kdy neinkasujeme. Počítá se to.V úvodu sezony na vás padala jen slova chvály. Přišlo vystřízlivění?Měli jsme obrovskou obměnu kádru. Přišlo deset nových hráčů, a to vždycky potřebuje čas. Paradoxně ty výsledky na začátku ligy šly trochu proti nám. Všichni říkali, že to pojede, ale ono není jednoduché takový tlak v hlavách ustát. Teď si spíš zvykáme na to, že proti nám soupeři nemusejí hledat extra motivaci. O to víc si ale tří bodů s Chrudimí vážíme.Dají se očekávat ještě nějaké […]
