    Hodges, an undrafted rookie, played well in relief duty, going 7-of-9 for 68 yards while directing Pittsburgh's offense on two scoring drives.

    Chargers favored = kiss of death.

      Home game in SoCal for the Steelers. Take Pittsburgh and the points. I don't care who they have at qb. We can't score

        Chargers should not be favored against anyone......

        Tomlin after todays loss looked like he was literally going to kill someone....... The steelers will play out of their minds this sunday night.......

        Chargers dont play with any urgency...... not even when down by 3 scores????....... Chargers have a very slow offense that intentionally plays even slower...... with its primary focus being too run out as much clock as possible..... totally forgetting that when in red zone, our goal should be to score TD's and not just play for FG's..... coaches have no clue when we should be running a hurry up offense......not even down by 3 scores???....

          LMAO I can't believe two completely shitty teams are gonna be playing on primetime next week.

          NFL must be kicking themselves over that stupid flex deadline thing that NBC has.

          I think even many Chargers and Steelers fans would rather have watched the Texans/Chiefs, Browns/Seahawks, Eagles/Vikings or even Niners/Rams over this mess on national television for Sunday Night Football.
          Tom Telesco’s Results in 9 years as Chargers GM:

          - 69-74 record
          - 0 division titles in 9 yrs as GM
          - Worst record among all active GMs with same tenure
          - 6th worst winning percentage among all active GMs overall
          - 2 playoff wins despite elite QB all 9 yrs
          - Team still has the same weaknesses (Oline and run defense) that it had when hired as GM in 2013
          - Consistently puts together horrible depth, expects starters to never miss games

            For anyone that plays daily fantasy leagues, pick up James Conner next Sunday. Should be getting at least 200 yds, 2 TDs over the porous Chargers D line.

            I don't think the Chargers lose this though. Steelers, similar to Miami, should be turning on their tank-game soon enough.

              Lynn HAS to make changes both sides of the ball. I'd expect players to be up to the challenge.( Okay, I HOPE their up to the challenge but as has been mentioned here, ad infinitum, ever since the days of Norv, this team NEVER plays with urgency!
              ​​​​​And that all comes down from the top. We're just spinning our wheels until He Who Shall Not Be Named sells the team)
              Tomlin will have his team ready. Can't say I'm confident AL will.

                    Ok, here's the truth.

                    When Rivers fears a secondary, like he does with the Broncos, Ravens, etc he doesn't play all his usual deep balls and chunk plays.

                    He goes much much more conservative. Combine that with no run game and it's no wonder our offense stutters.

                    How does he he feel about PIT's secondary? That will tell us all we need to know.

                    I've said it before, the only players not on the OL that we're truly missing is Hunter Henry. He has WR1 and WR2 and RB1 and RB2 (although RB is skewed and maybe tough to quantify being in flux with JJ's injury and Gordon's return). But we have the players.

                      Steelers will come to play. Chargers likely won't. Just based on recent history. Have the Chargers really played one complete game this entire year?

                        Have to add in just how easy the donkeys D was able to get in Rivers face for a large portion of the game.Cant hate on Rivers trying to" hero ball" when he has what looks like a bunch a wimps supposedly protecting him up front and the receivers barely getting open because of said secondary.
