The Houston Texans come into Heinz Field on Monday Night looking for a "W" in any way shape or form. The Pittsburgh Steelers are looking to get back on the winning track after getting spanked near Lake Erie last week in Northwest Ohio. Both teams come in at 3-3 and it's QB Fitzpatrick vs Big Ben and "Area 99" vs the Steelers O-Line.

#HOUvsPIT Game Outlook:

The Houston Texans might have the advantage with RB Arian Foster trying to shred the Steelers Run "D" ranked 16th giving up 112 plus yards. They also have Dre "305" Johnson of the U and Jordan Brand with 2nd-year stud WR DeAndre Hopkins from Clemson attacking the Steelers weak secondary ranked 11th against the pass. Steelers CB Brice McCain a former Texan will get Cortez Allen's slot who was struggling to say the least.

Can the Steelers get pressure on QB "Fitz" as he will give you more then enough chances to get an INT? Steelers D-Line has to start playing better as Rook ILB Ryan Shazier is questionable. Steelers will also be without special teams demon and back up safety Shamarko Thomas and DT Steve McLendon. The Texans are 10th in rushing and 28th in passing coming in.

The Steelers on the other hand have been blowing the roof off offensive numbers but being in the bottom of 32 in the Red Zone makes those numbers look like fool's gold. Steelers are 4th in rushing, 8th in passing and 4th in total yards but 24th in points.  Now they get that Texans "D" led by JJ Watt dba "Area 99" of Nike Football.

The Texans must take away both Steelers RB Le'veon Bell and WR Antonio Brown as those are two of the best they will see in the 2014 16-game trek at their respective positions. "Bulls On Parade" is 23rd against the run and 28th against the pass. They are also 29th overall in yards allowed. They are a bend but don't break bunch as thy are #6 in point against at 20 ppg.

The Texans 2014 #1 overall pick Jadeveon Clowney is questionable and the Texans can't take chances on him. Can they get pressure to Big Ben and bottle up that Steelers O-Line?

Winner: Steelers 31-17 as Big Ben and Bell and Brown get going as does Dri Archer, Lance Moore, and Heath Miller. The O-line keep Watt away enough to get keep Big Ben somewhat clean. Texans QB "Fitz" turns it over a few times.
