The Pittsburgh Steelers got humiliated in primetime against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night Football, losing 25-10. Still, a late touchdown by Pittsburgh helped close the gap on a game that ended up becoming a blowout in the second half. The offense looked pitiful from start to finish, and plenty of blame falls on Aaron Rodgers and his poor performance. Still, the receiving corps also shoulders a fair amount of the blame as they struggled to get open throughout the contest, with no pass catcher going over 35 yards.

WR Calvin Austin III particularly struggled in a game where he was looked at early and often, seeing seven targets, but only reeled in two catches for 14 yards.
