Steelers brought their refs. Texans are going to lose again. I can feel it.

Ridiculous. The referees haven't called anything that was patently unfair other than Wallace's taunting call in the first quarter. The Texans are playing stupid, penalty-prone football and they are getting punished for it.

On 1st and 10 at the Texan 38, pass to Brown goes for big gainer. Ball at the Texan 15.

Mendenhall for 4. 2nd and 6 coming up.

Mendenhall for no gain. Makes it 3rd and 5 from the Texan 11.

Roethlisberger can't find a receiver and scrambles for the 1st down at the Texan 3. 1st and goal.

Mendenhall sweeps right for the TD.

Texans 10, Steelers 7

7:02 left in the 3rd quarter.

I love the way teams find our suckiest CB and abuse them in one on one coverage...thanks Jason Allen...

Of course they do, but one thing that has been underscored today is that Jason Allen, bad as he is, is far better than Jackson.

Manning downs the Steeler kickoff in the endzone. Texans ball at their 20.

Foster for 1. 2nd and 9 coming up.

Dump off to Foster only gets 1. 3rd and 8 coming up.

Pass off Foster's hands sails inc. Texans have to punt.

Sanders is tripped up by Casey on the return. Ball is placed at the Steeler 37. 5:37 left in the 3rd quarter.

This was a huge, huge win.

All the undisciplined BS, two TDs wiped off, the rough offensive day against such a great D, losing our best offensive player, and we STILL won.

AT home.

Against the STEELERS.

After giving them like 18 chances.
