Welcome to the terrible take a daily segment telling Steelers nation what's on our mind. I'm Alex Kazora.

I know I tend to be pessimistic when it comes to picking the Steelers, it's just my nature, but I'm nervous about this Sunday's game against the Houston Texans.

I'm not sure how the entire Pittsburgh fan base feels about this one, on the outside confidence seems high that

Pittsburgh will take care of business. NFL.com's weekly panel has nearly a clean

sweep of the Texans I'm not at that point. I know Pittsburgh made progress. They played

their best game against the Raiders, but so did the Texans and they beat a quality

opponent in Jacksonville in convincing fashion 37 to 17.

For a Steelers team with back-to-back road games, I smell an upset.

I know the Texans line is an absolute mess a damn that is broken but they won with it last week

for Pittsburgh I think they either finally win big something they basically never do or the Texans take this one in a close

victory. Quarterback CJ Stroud looks like a stud and their receivers are

underrated with rookie Tank Del flashing big play ability. Really all the young guys have

stepped up and the team has improved week by week. With a similar scheme and

philosophy to the San Francisco 49ers who took it to Pittsburgh in week one, the

Steelers might have their hands full Sunday afternoon.
