San Diego Chargers at Pittsburgh Steelers NFL Predictions: The Chargers (4-5) are coming off a win over Kansas City 20-19 last week as 14 point favorites. QB Philip Rivers was 27/36 for 316 yards 2 TD's and 2 INT's. San Diego's defense played so erratically in the season's first half that defensive coordinator Ted Cottrell was fired and replaced by inside linebackers coach Ron Rivera. The Chargers held on for a narrow win against Kansas City last week but San Diego has not solved the defensive problems that have led to a very mediocre start to the season. The sports odds posted by the oddsmakers at Sbgglobal.com currently list Pittsburgh Steelers -5 favorites to San Diego Chargers heading into this matchup.
"We've been so up and down this season, obviously that can drain you mentally," said Tomlinson, who was held to 78 yards on 22 carries. "We're just trying to find ways to continue to get better at this time of the year with this now starting to come down to the wire. We need wins."
The Steelers (6-3) are coming off a home loss last week as 4 point favorites to the Colts 24-20. The Steelers had a chance to win at the end, but Roethlisberger's pass into the end zone on the final play – with Nate Washington open briefly – was intercepted by Melvin Bullitt. Pittsburgh has a great defense (ranked 1st overrall), but I watched the Indy Steelers game last week, and I think the Colts showed that you can attack this team deep and that's probably the best way to beat them. The online sports betting odds at Sbgglobal.com has the OVER/UNDER in this San Diego Chargers at Pittsburgh Steelers game is set at 42 points.
"You'll never hear me say 'I' anything, but I lost this game," said Roethlisberger, who appeared to be crying into a towel when reporters entered the locker room. "I take it on myself. I let the guys down on offense and defense. It hurts, but we'll learn from it."
NFL Predictions: It all comes down to QB Rivers playing mistake free and going deep as much as possible on the Steelers secondary, because you can't rush on the Steelers and they're so aggressive anywhere 10 yards from scrimmage! Chargers D will give up points and Rothlisberger will make some more mistakes in the red zone. If Rivers can successfully throw 15-20 yard passes and do it under pressure, the Chargers win! This is going to be a battle, I don't see either team winning by more than a few points! Favorite is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 meetings. Chargers are 5-1-1 ATS vs. a team with a winning record. Under is 4-0 in Chargers last 4 vs. AFC.
