Our Steelers Chargers predictions are going to highlight the Sunday NFL card. This is a tough match-up for the Super Bowl champs as they head into San Diego to face a team that has dreams of winning their own title.

The Chargers got their first loss of the season last week when the Ravens staged a late 4th quarter comeback. They are going to have to get back on track against a tough opponent in the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The faithful were up in arms about Marty-ball in the Baltimore loss, but you have to like the fact that they are off to a 2-1 start with Philip Rivers at the helm. They are currently sitting atop the AFC West in a tie with the Denver Broncos and a win over the Steelers would do wonders for this team’s confidence.
How well is LT going to do this week? He is the leading yards per game rusher in the NFL, but he’s going up against the Steelers 4th-ranked rush defense. He might need some help from Rivers who has led the Charger offense to 26.7 points per game. He is completing 68% of his passes for a QB rating of 96.9, but he’s not throwing the ball very often.
Defensively the Chargers are ranked 2nd-defensively at 7.7 points per game, and Ben Roethlisberger hasn’t gotten the Steelers offense on track at all so far. He has lost his two starts this season and a loss here would put Pittsburgh at 1-3 to start the year. We will see if that bye week was enough to get Big Ben on track, we think it was and our Steelers Chargers predictions show Pitt taking advantage of the 3.5 points and winning 21-17.
