Pittsburgh Steelers 31 Houston Texans 23 recap

The Texans started strong the monday night, earlier with the first career TD of Alfred Blue that has been thrown by Fitzpatrick, also the defense begin in a great way, Mercilus forced a fumble that the amazing and mr everything on a football firld JJ Watt recovered, Houston hasn't been able to capitalize the initial mistakes of Pittsburgh, O-line lead by the pro bowlers Myers at center and Duane Brown at LT gave initially a good avantage to the Texans that with an Healty and great Foster who has been able to read perfectly every hole that Myers and Co. have been able to open in Pitts' defense, finally the Steelers have been able to react and limit houston to 2 FGs. With Houston ahea 13-3 at the end of the 2nd Quater the game changed in a shocking way, Pittsburgh scored with a big play on a play-action for a Receiving TD (1st of his young career) of the 4th round pick of 14's draft Martarius Bryant, play-actions have been so effective because Texans defense paid lot of attentions to LeVeon Bell who has been limitated to just 54 yards and 12 carries. Right after 1st Pittsburgh TD Daniel Manning missed to control on a kick return situation and made his team start from their own 4 yards, Houston didn't come out of that situation and gave back the ball to the Steelers that scored on a beautiful designed trick play by coach Mike Tomlin that has been finshed by the WR Brown throw a TD pass to Lance Moore thanks to a great block by Big Ben. Hoston totally stunned after that made another huge error with Fitzpatrick throw an interception right on hte hands of Keisel who played a great all around game, Pittsburgh scored again with a bell's receiving TD and finished the half ahead 24-13. The 2nd half has been totally dominated by the Steelers who managed the game especially with great play action duo Big Ben to Antonio Brown who destroyed Steelers' secondary with his speed and changes of pace. Fitzapatrick in my idea is not a starting QB in the NFL and Houston must find a better choice at QB position if they really want to compete at high levels. Too many errors on this game by both sides, Steelers capitalized it better and they won. MVP of the game Brett Keisel for me.
