The Steelers’ season ended with another playoff disappointment, as they fell, 30-6, to the Houston Texans in an AFC wild-card game Monday night at Acrisure Stadium.
Pittsburgh stayed within striking distance into the fourth quarter, but Houston erupted for 23 points — including two defensive touchdowns — to secure its first road playoff win and extend the Steelers’ postseason drought to nine years.
