The Houston Texans welcome the Pittsburgh Steelers to town on Monday in a matchup between two AFC teams hoping to stay on track this season.

Texans coach DeMeco Ryans is in his first season at the helm in Houston and has thoughts on the success of Steelers coach Mike Tomlin. 

“He’s definitely a guy I look up to, and you see his success and how his players rave about him,” Ryans said. “I think that’s what sticks out the most, and that’s the type of coach that I want to be — a man who truly cares about the players. Not just as players, but as men, and that’s where Coach Tomlin sticks out to me the most, and I have the utmost respect for him.”

Ryans and rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud hope to register their first winning streak with a victory over the Steelers on Sunday after a 37-17 win over the Jaguars in Week 3.

“When we first came in, we wanted to set the foundation of why they drafted us,” he said. “We all said to each other, ‘They drafted us together for a reason.’ We all play off of each other and we all eat off each other. We set that standard that we weren’t going to go anything short of success here. We’re going to bring hope to the Texans.”

Pittsburgh rides a two-game winning streak after wins over Cleveland and Las Vegas.
