Of course the biggest win for the Chargers came in the only time they defeated the Steelers in three playoff games. While they turn their sights towards the San Diego Chargers we’ll be busy looking for mentions of your Black & Gold so we’ve got you covered.

That should help with Vick getting on the same page as his receivers, most notably the NFL’s leading receiver, Antonio Brown. Brown coveted the mark because it served as a hallmark of his consistency. He’s completed 29 pressured passes on 42 attempts, leading to three drops, two touchdowns and two interceptions.
“I think so”, he added.
Jonathan Papelbon continues his reign as one of baseball’s most hated players, following a recent skirmish with superstar Bryce Harper. “I highly appreciate him doing that, taking the time to text me every morning”, said Bryant. There is different spin on deep balls.
“I am very thankful for this organization giving me a chance”, said Boswell. Steelers lead series, 21-7, and have won eight of the last 10 games. We can’t do that. We take that to heart. We want to be great so we are going to do whatever needs to be done. The Steelers D/ST is a middling option on the road against a solid Chargers offense this week. The Bulls will take on the Cleveland Cavaliers in their first regular season game.
The Chargers’ offensive line struggled last season though and has been hit by injuries this year.
QUOTE TO NOTE: “Ben and Antonio have chemistry that’s out of this world”. I can’t do everything they did. He certainly has to get the ball more.
There are no guarantees on how much either will play as Gates returns from suspension and Shazier tries to recover from a right shoulder injury.

5 – The Steelers will have to go against Philip Rivers Monday night and he was drafted ahead of Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger in 2004. Furthermore, Shaun Suisham suffered a torn ACL during the HOF Game against Minnesota, and Garrett Hartley, who was going to be replacement kicker, got a hamstring injury in preseason and got injured reserve instead. He said he is on track to play against San Diego on Monday Night.
-Chargers secondary vs. the Steelers passing game. So should the return of Martavis Bryant, who missed the first four games while serving a suspension for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy. How about Gates, who had a resurgent 2014 campaign but turned 35 this summer? Blitzing could be the answer.
Defensive line: Five sacks of Joe Flacco is a solid number. It’s a trade they certainly would like to have back. In 31 career games, Bell has reached 150 yards from scrimmage 19 times.
Facing the Steelers without Roethlisberger gives the Chargers defense an obvious break.

One thing the Steelers have been focused on so far is bringing blitzes from their left outside linebackers. Only four other teams rank lower than that.
