Great job by the Steelers defending home field.

Oh well. Only lost a couple dollars since I won my bet straight up almost cancels out my loss from taking the over.

A couple thoughts:

Watching Rivers try to throw the deep ball is pathetic to watch.

Is Keenan Allen hurt? I don’t think Rivers even looked his way in the second half.

Devlin Hodges couldn’t get his parents better seats?

Anthony Lynn's coaching seat is getting hotter

As soon as that pass got picked off, he should have gone down. No reason to risk a fumble returning it.

What a dumb onside kick

There's an argument for and against. What's funny is that the coach went for the aggressive approach there when perhaps the game could be tied right now if he decided to be aggressive earlier instead of settling for the FG. 4th and 14 is tough, but it was within the realm of possiblity that they would've converted and scored a TD.

In fairness, the Steelers fan probably sold out that stadium in minutes once tickets went on sale. Probably a nice Chargers couple gave up the seats for his parents.

I think under the new rules it’s not worth the risk. If they get a first down it’s over anyway. Kick it, play D and hope for a 3 and out. By not getting it you give the Steelers ALL the options

Why is this chick bugging Hodges with all these questions? It's obvious he has to get changed and get to the "filling station". Goober's been covering for him all day

he should have taken it for a pick 6. I needed a half a point :)

I'm no Mike Tomlin fan or anything but it's not easy to come away with 2 wins in a row in prime time with backup qbs. The main guys from that smoke and mirrors show vs the Bengals are injured now too so he had to just figure out how to hang on in this one. Got to give him some credit.

And as far as I can tell, he didn't trip anybody

LMAO at rivers. What a fraud.
Been hearing all week how people think that he has had a better career (rings aside) and will be known as a better QB than Ben when they retire...

This... what we saw tonight, is what I will always remember Rivers for.

He is a good QB but rarely looks competent on the big stage and fails to live up to the hype every time.

Ben’s is, was & will forever be a better QB than Rivers... by a country mile

Ben is better. Where I have an issue is people who say that Rivers is worse than Eli and that Eli is a Hall of Famer.

Anybody who says he’s in Bens class is an idiot
