Why The Steelers’ Game in LA is So Important This Week

With only 17 games, EVERY game in the National Football League is important. That being said, some games do carry more significance than do others. This week is a perfect example as the Pittsburgh Steelers head to LA to play the Chargers on Sunday Night Football. Why is this one “different” you ask? There are several reasons in my opinion.

Real or a Mirage?

In weeks seven and eight, the Steelers’ defense was beaten, abused and tortured by Cincinnati and Green Bay. The unit gave up over 900 total yards of offense to those two teams and recorded nary a turnover.
