Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh believes that Houston Texans linebacker Brian Cushing is the team's key defensive player.

John Harbaugh has identified Brian Cushing as the key player in the Houston Texans' defense.

The linebacker, who missed the majority of last season with a serious knee injury, has made 16 tackles, 1.5 sacks and an interception in the first two games of the season.

The Baltimore Ravens head coach told reporters: "Certainly a healthy Brian Cushing is key for them. He's an enforcer in the middle, [and] he's a really good run stopper, one of the best.

"He's one of the best blitzers in the league, especially when he adds on, but also when he's a primary blitzer.

"They do a lot with him and JJ [Watt, the 2012 defensive player of the year] in the run game off the strong side of the defense there. They cause a lot of problems for everybody, and [it's] not just those two guys."

The AFC South side will take on the Super Bowl Champions tomorrow.
