Steelers made most of frantic 73 seconds

PITTSBURGH — The bounces and big plays piled up so quickly, even the Pittsburgh Steelers were stunned.

For one glorious stretch late in the first half of Monday night’s 30-23 victory against the Houston Texans, the Steelers looked like the team they’ve been talking about since training camp. The offense crammed three touchdowns into 73 dizzying seconds. The defense forced a pair of Houston turnovers and a season that fluctuates between hopeful and hopeless took another wild turn.

“I’ve never seen anything like that,” running back Le’Veon Bell said.
