Two of the AFC’s best teams will meet in primetime this week when the Pittsburgh Steelers face the Los Angeles Chargers. Both of them look like playoff teams, and they’re fighting to win their divisions. The Steelers are in first place in the AFC North, while the Chargers are in second place in the AFC West. The Steelers have struggled at times this year, but they put together a great game last week. Bucky Brooks likes the direction that the Steelers are going, but he sees a real path for the Chargers to beat them.
“The Steelers are a bit of a disappointment early because we talked about this being a shut-them-down defense, a defense that we were going to celebrate the number of Hall of Famers that they had on it,” Brooks said recently on his Move the Sticks podcast.
