The Pittsburgh Steelers rallied in quick-fire fashion on Monday, scoring 24 points in less than three minutes en route to a 30-23 NFL victory over Houston.
The Texans had silenced the crowd at Heinz Field by taking a 13-0 lead midway through the second quarter.
But Steelers running back LeVeon Bell sparked a string of 24 straight points in a 2:54 span near the end of the first half as the Steelers turned things around against the stunned Texans.
Pittsburgh romped for three touchdowns in 73 seconds after Shaun Suisham scored their first points on a 44-yard field goal with 3:08 to go in the first half.
Two of them came after the Steelers defense forced turnovers.
Bell amassed 145 yards from scrimmage and caught a touchdown pass from Ben Roethlisberger, who shook off a slow start and finished with 265 yards and two TD passes.
Arian Foster gained 102 yards and caught a late touchdown pass for Houston, who endured a third straight defeat.
Texans quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick threw for two touchdowns and an interception.
The Texans were again without number one overall draft pick Jadeveon Clowney.
The rookie linebacker is still not at full strength after surgery to repair a torn meniscus suffered in his first NFL game in the opening week of the season.
