The final game of Wild Card Weekend will be an AFC matchup between the No. 5 Houston Texans and the No. 4 Pittsburgh Steelers.
These teams have only faced each other eight times in their history, but the Steelers lead the series, 5-3, and have won three of their four most recent meetings. They last competed back in 2023, when the Texans won in Houston, 30-6. Both teams look a lot different than they did back then, and Aaron Rodgers has the kind of postseason experience that could propel Pittsburgh to the next round.
The Philadelphia Eagles have a rooting interest in this game! If the Steelers win, the Eagles will pick at No. 22 in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft. If the Texans win, the Eagles will pick at No. 23.
