Guessing the Steelers were (again) content with allowing Rivers to pass for 320 yards?
It’s refreshing to see a physical Defensive effort by the Steelers but for maybe 3.5 quarters?
We’re talking about a patchwork Chargers O Line that managed to get the apparent Steelers romp into a one score game correct?
