Another disappointing loss in Week 7 has the Houston Texans sitting at a paltry 1-4-1 record ahead of their matchup against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. The team is looking for any kind of boost they can get before playing such a challenging opponent, and players spoke to the media on Tuesday about what lies ahead for them as they try to salvage their season.
Defensive lineman Rasheem Green was quick to point out how much of an impact practice makes on the Texans’ fortunes on a week-to-week basis, and how the game is won or lost with the players’ status above the shoulders. The mental aspect of the sport, Green said, is the most crucial aspect to getting wins in the NFL.
