Like he did against Pittsburgh at home in Week 4, CB Steven Nelson must perform well on Sunday for the Texans to defeat Tampa Bay.If I've learned one thing about the National football League in my time covering it since 2007, and my time being a fan of it since the early '80s, it seems like bad losses, like the one the Houston Texans suffered at the hands of the Carolina Panthers last week, tend to linger longer with fans and media than they do with the actual players and coaches.
