It’s H-Town vs the Steel Curtain, and this one has ALL the ingredients for a gritty, high-stakes showdown. 🔥
In this special episode of Locked On Texans, we link up with Locked On Steelers to break down how Houston matches up against one of the NFL’s most physical teams — and why the Texans might be built to close the curtain in Pittsburgh.
🟥 Can the Steelers handle Houston’s pass rush?
Mike Tomlin called the Texans’ edge defenders the best in the league. Bold words — and we think they’re about to be proven true. With limited playmakers on the outside (not named DK Metcalf), who becomes the biggest defensive X-factor for Houston?
🟥 CJ Stroud vs Aaron Rodgers — the mental chess match
What does Rodgers bring mentally to attack this Texans defense, and how does Houston counter it?
Here’s the formula: play make-it, take-it.
Protect the football (something Stroud has mastered post-concussion)
Force turnovers on the other side
Win the possession battle
🟥 Defense wins this game
Houston must limit explosive plays on the back end, tackle cleanly, and make every yard difficult. If they do? This turns into a close, hard-fought game between two teams built the same way — toughness, discipline, and defense.
So the big questions remain:
👉 Will CJ Stroud outplay Aaron Rodgers?
👉 Can Houston’s pass rush dominate like Tomlin says it can?
👉 Is this the moment H-Town closes the Steel Curtain?
