Rapid fire Steelers show their mettle against Texans

24-points in less than three minutes did for Houston.

THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS scored 24 points in a remarkable two minutes and 54 seconds to beat the Texans 30-23 on Monday Night Football.

The Texans had taken a 13-0 lead midway through the second quarter thanks to this Alfred Blue touchdown catch.

However, with just 3:08 to go in the first half, Shaun Suisham scored the Steelers’ first points of the game on a 44-yard field goal before three touchdowns in 73 seconds.

After the Texans responded with a three-and-out, the Steelers needed just two plays to score their first touchdown, Ben Roethlisberger finding Martavis Bryant on this 35-yard pass.

After an Arian Foster fumble, Antonio Brown turned a fake reverse into a three-yard touchdown pass to Lance Moore.

Just one play later, Brett Keisel intercepted a Ryan Fitzpatrick pass, running it back to Houston’s 8-yard line. Two plays later Roethlisberger hit a wide-open Le’Veon Bell for a two-yard touchdown. Suisham’s extra point capped the first half scoring.

Before their scoring blitz, the Steelers has scored just two touchdowns in 10 quarters of football. Pittsburgh move on to 4-3 while the Texans slip to 3-4.
