Wild Card weekend concludes tonight with the Pittsburgh Steelers hosting the Houston Texans for a Monday Night Football showdown.
After an action-packed weekend of dramatic finishes, tonight’s game could follow suit in an AFC matchup that sees the Texans as four-point favorites.
Tonight’s game, which will be played at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pennslyvania, will kick off at 8:15 p.m. ET and will be broadcasted on ESPN. Alternatively, the game will be broadcasted on the Manningcast on ESPN2.
Hosts and former NFL quarterbacks Peyton and Eli Manning will be joined by former NFL players, Ben Roethlisberger and JJ Watt. Roethlisberger won two Super Bowls with the Steelers and Watt spent most of his NFL career with the Texans while his younger brother TJ currently plays for the Steelers.
The winner of tonight’s game will go on to face the New England Patriots in Foxboro next Sunday at Gillette Stadium, as the divisional round of the playoffs is all bet set, pending tonight’s result.
