The Pittsburgh Steelers are finally back on a playoff stage at Acrisure Stadium. Tonight, they are hosting their first postseason game since 2020—and their first in front of a full home crowd since 2017. This matchup sets up a collision of streaks against the red-hot Houston Texans.
The Texans are riding a nine-game win streak into the postseason, but they’ve never won a playoff game on the road in franchise history. The Steelers haven’t lost a Monday night home game since 1991, but they’ve lost six straight playoff games dating back to 2016. Something’s gotta give.
