Chargers (+1.5) at Steelers Pregame Discussion (Wk 3)

Steelers open -1.5. I think we can and will beat them

[JOJAX85]

Need a good performance from the TEs. Quick hits so Watt doesn't have time to get back there.

PIT looks strong to me.
Good trenchers.
We will need Herbert to outplay Fields/Russell.

So far....not so good. Here's to hoping!

I think this is a winnable game. The Steelers haven't looked that great especially on offense.

[Formula 21]

I’m thinking 3-0. Bring the heat.

Go Bolts.

Steelers are always beatable, they are an average team. But they can win games. Question for the crowd - do you want Justin or Russell? Russell was named starter out of camp, but Justin has won 2 in a row.

Dont’ know Russell will even be an option for them yet

The Steelers have scored 1TD in 2 games. This will be an ugly slugfest.

Both teams are playing with a similar philosophy of strong defense with an emphasis on running the ball.

I think the team will need more out of Herbert and the passing game next week because the Steelers D will be difficult to push around so I expect more play action and down the field throws mixed in to try to loosen up the Steelers defense.

Defensively yes. Offensively not so much. If Fields is the QB the Chargers win.

Haven't seen a single play of Steeler football this season but they haven't exactly been lighting it up. Agree, on paper looks like a defensive struggle.

we'll have to see whether Herbert is goi g to be limited

My concerns:
PIT pass rush.
PIT running game.
