Hopefully this isn\u2019t the last mailbag of the season. We\u2019ll find out soon enough when the Pittsburgh Steelers host the Houston Texans on Monday night to close out the wild card round.<\/p>\n
Q: What I would really like to know is: Did all the BTSC staff really pick the Steelers to beat the Rats last weekend? Or were you all just trying to please us fans? – Polamolicules_Dude<\/p>\n
A: Was a clean sweep across the board. The Steelers usually beat Baltimore, so I wasn\u2019t shocked. I\u2019d assume the rest of the staff had similar thoughts.<\/p>\n
Q: How big a confidence level difference do you have based on this game being in Pittsburgh vs being in Houston? DK stat line, heavy target share, or decoy? – Blkgldtom<\/p>\n
A: On a scale of 1-10, my confidence is about a 7.5. I think they win. I\u2019d put DK at 5 catches for around 65 yards. Solid game, but nothing other-worldly.<\/p>\n
Q: From the Texans\u2019 current roster, what non-QB would you most like to see on the Steelers\u2019 2026 roster? – Blkgldtom<\/p>\n
A: Will Anderson. Easily. One of the 10 best edge rushers in the game. Derek Stingley or Nico Collins would be my second pick.<\/p>\n
Q: I\u2019ll set the over\/under at 34 passes thrown. What are ya taking? I predict they come out throwing. Stretch that defense. 35 passes for Rodgers and a WIN …17-16. – steelwoman<\/p>\n
A: I\u2019ll take the under. The talent in Houston\u2019s secondary far outweighs what the Steelers have at receiver. Run the ball, control the clock.<\/p>\n
Q: Does Aaron throw 4TDs vs the Texans? You know, like some other legend? – Polamolicules_Dude<\/p>\n
A: An Al Bundy performance for the ages would be a great way to end the playoff win drought.<\/p>\n
