Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Houston Texans: Live Score, Highlights and Analysis

Current Score: Pittsburgh 10, Houston 17 (Final)

Last Scoring Play: Arian Foster touchdown run

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Houston Texans each face a huge test on Sunday as they face off against each other in Reliant Stadium at 1 p.m. (TV: CBS).

For the Steelers, the importance of this game lies in the fact that it's perhaps their last true test before they face New England and a rematch with Baltimore at the end of October. The Steelers also need this game as a way of building momentum and proving their mettle against an AFC playoff contender.

For the Texans, the importance stems from their need to continue proving themselves against the AFC elite. The Steelers were just where the Texans want to be: the Super Bowl. If they claim victory over Pittsburgh, they can improve to 3-1 and truly call themselves a playoff contender.

The game has a ton of individual matchups to watch, but perhaps none is more pivotal than Houston linebacker Mario Williams vs. the Pittsburgh offensive linemen.
