While the Pittsburgh Steelers had a number of freaky things go against them the last time they faced the Los Angeles Chargers—multiple missed penalties and a friendly-fire collision, which directly led to three touchdowns—the thing that head coach Mike Tomlin pointed to as being different for next week’s matchup was what he’ll have available to him.
During his pre-game press conference yesterday afternoon, he highlighted Philip Rivers, the Chargers’ quarterback since 2004, and regarded as one of the best football minds in the game. While his win-loss record doesn’t always indicate it, he is well-respected for what he can do at the line of scrimmage.
