The Steel Curtain was supposed to stand tall… instead, it CRUMBLED against Houston.
The Houston Texans DOMINATED the Pittsburgh Steelers in what may go down as the greatest defensive performance in Texans history. We’re talking under 200 total yards allowed, multiple takeaways, sacks, defensive scores, and a night so miserable for Aaron Rodgers it sparked serious retirement chatter.
So how did the Texans do it?
Locked-down coverage
Limited YAC yards
Zero defensive lapses
Stars showing up when it mattered most
This defense was surgical, violent, and relentless.
And they had to be, because CJ Stroud had a rollercoaster night. Three costly turnovers. Missed moments. But also clutch third-down throws, pressure-beating plays, and drive-sustaining magic when Houston needed it most.
Offensively, the real stars?
Woody Marks breaking through
The offensive line dominating the trenches
Houston controlling time of possession
Elite third-down efficiency
Red-zone dominance
Oh—and Christian Kirk FINALLY showed up.
Plus, Nick Chubb turned back the clock, proving he’s still a problem.
And let’s talk about it:
Nick Caley was MASTERFUL.
Play-calling, flow, adjustments—this was a statement. The message is loud and clear:
Houston doesn’t need another offensive coordinator. HE. IS. THE. GUY.
