Steelers blowout the Texans

The Steelers’ second Christmas Day victory came in 2017 when they dominated the Houston Texans in a 34-6 blowout. The Steelers were firing on all cylinders, showcasing why they were one of the NFL’s top teams that season.

Ben Roethlisberger led the charge with precision passing, connecting with star wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster. The defense was equally dominant, stifling Houston’s offense (seven sacks) and forcing critical turnovers.

The win highlighted Pittsburgh’s offensive firepower and defensive strength and secured a first-round playoff bye, making it a perfect holiday gift for Steelers fans. This Christmas Day triumph further cemented the team’s reputation for excelling under the spotlight and gave fans another unforgettable holiday memory.

Can the Steelers do it again and come away undefeated on Christmas Day with a win against the Kansas City Chiefs tomorrow afternoon?
