Practically out of the postseason

Unlike their rivals, the Titans no longer have the pressure of winning all the remaining games of the NFL season, however, it is not because they have qualified for the postseason or have had a perfect record in previous weeks that allows them to relax, rather, the bad pace they have had so far caused that in the AFC South, the Titans are the first team eliminated from the AFC South, The Titans are the first team mathematically eliminated from advancing to the postseason since they now have a record of 5 wins and 10 losses, in fact, as visitors they have only obtained one win out of those five, so everything looks like in this game they will add one more loss to the statistics of a team that is already thinking about how to reinforce itself for next season.

The fight in the AFC South is even

The Texans continue to fight for the leadership of the AFC South, however, it is one of the most even divisions because three of the four teams have the same record, 8 wins and 7 losses, therefore, getting this victory against the Titans is of vital importance to take the first place of the group. Likewise, a slip-up could mean goodbye to thinking about the postseason, making victory in this game even more mandatory. However, the Texans have a positive home record of 5 wins and 3 losses, making them favorites to win this game and continue fighting for a ticket to the NFL playoffs.
