The Houston Oilers were big AFC Central rivals back in the decade that saw the Pittsburgh Steelers win four Super Bowls over a six year span. At the end of the 1998 season, the Oilers moved to Nashville and became the Tennessee Titans leaving Houston without an NFL team.
The city of Houston was granted a new franchise in 1999 at a cost of $1 billion and the team became the Texans. The Steelers own a 4-2 record over the Texans with the last game played three years ago when the Steelers rolled over their opponents 34-6.
In 2002, the Texans’ first year in the league, they traveled to Pittsburgh and surprisingly beat the Steelers.
