San Diego Chargers @ Pittsburgh Steelers
Week 5, 2005: Steelers 24, Chargers 22
Pittsburgh's defense limited the Chargers to 66 yards on the ground and Jeff Reed's 40-yard game-winning field goal with six seconds remaining in the game capped a 10-point fourth quarter rally.
Week 5, 2006: Chargers 23, Steelers 13
The Chargers shut out the Steelers in the second half and handed Pittsburgh its third straight loss. Chargers QB Philip Rivers threw for 242 yards and two touchdowns while Nate Kaeding nailed field goals of 28, 33 and 22 yards in the second half.
Week 11, 2008: Steelers 11, Chargers 10
In the swirling snow at Heinz Field, Willie Parker rushed for 115 yards and Jeff Reed hit three field goals, including the game-winner with 11 seconds left, to seal the win for Pittsburgh. The 11-10 final score was the first in NFL history.
This matchup is a replay of an earlier game between these two teams. The earlier matchup was a bad weather affair held in a snowstorm. The results were a low scoring squeaker won by the Steelers. While it is early for a weather forecast it could be very cold and snow again. The Steelers is another team that really benifitted from having a week off. Big Ben suffered a mild concussion in the last game and the week off should have been just what the doctor ordered. With a mild concussion many QBs can be medically cleared to play the nest week but in most cases it results in a poor performance. LT sounds like he may not get any better than he is. Sproles on the other hand was totally exhausted after his performance last week but healthy. Rivers continues to be a top Fantasy QB that has virtual fantasy invisable Wrs.
