Chargers played the Steelers pretty tough the first time around and they were a different team then.

7.5 assuming Ben plays. LT really doesn't matter considering Sproles is a capable backup. Total I'm not sure on. I'm guessing around 43.

Rivers vs Ben is no contest. Rivers the much better QB at this moment.

SD has to travel cross country on a short week maybe with Pitt having a bye. Pitt's only weakness is the head coach but S/D has a weak head coach too. Pitt -6.5 or less and I'm pounding it.

6.5 is fair. SD has a good team, but without LT (sproles is nowhere close to tomlinson, lets not kid ourselves) it comes down to Rivers and he's not somebody I would want my season depending on. Big Ben > Rivers and that's why Pittsburgh covers.

Sproles is as good as the 2008 version of LT.

I don't know what to think of this line, but I love Ravens ML vs Tenn.

chargers have some destiny in them so even though i've been a lifelong steelers fan on and off i think i'll go with the chargers to win this game.

I say try and get both sides if ya can. Bet sd and the points and try to end a tease with pitt. This is going to be a close hard fought game.

I'd consider Big Ben a weakness as well. I think SD caught a break having to play Pitt instead of TN. I don't believe that SD can stop the rushing attack of TN but they have a good chance against the Steelers.

I disagree with that statement. Rivers is playing better than Big Ben imo.

Big Ben would have zero chance vs his own D....

Rivers is better IMO.

Maybe I'm too low on Rivers, but if I'm a defensive player up against Rivers I'm not scared at all. I really don't see Sproles getting anything done vs teh Pittsburgh defense so it's up to him, and that's bad news for SD..

Tomlin > Turner, and that's not even a close or debatable comparison.

I am getting my money back when the Refs screwed everyone on the last play of this gamel. Pitt should have won 18-10 and now it is Payback time for the Cover. :houra

I missed the money by 2 points in my football league. Each win and cover is worth 2 points. Guess who I had in that game? :hangt
