Steelers or Ravens vs. Texans first-round playoff date revealed

6 days ago 2

We now the date for when either the Pittsburgh Steelers or Baltimore Ravens will host the Houston Texans in the first round of playoffs.

The Texans will travel on the road to take on the winner of the AFC North title, either the Ravens or the Steelers depending on the results in Week 18, on Monday, January 12 at 8:00 p.m. EST.

The Jacksonville Jaguars' Week 18 win over the Tennessee Titans dashed any hopes the Texans had of winning the AFC South, but Houston's 38-30 victory over the Indianapolis Colts was enough to clinch the No. 5 seed in playoffs — setting them up for a collision course with either the Ravens or Steelers.

Pittsburgh hasn't hosted a playoff game in five years and haven't won a postseason matchup in almost 10 years, but a potential clash between the Texans and Steelers would be exciting to watch.
