While Russell Wilson is recovering from his calf injury, Justin Fields has led the Pittsburgh Steelers to two back-to-back victories in the starting weeks of this season. Moving forward, they have a scheduled match for week 3 against the AFC West club, the Los Angeles Chargers. Both the Steelers and the Chargers are coming off two consecutive victories. 

Since Fields wasn’t his first choice for the starting quarterback, Pittsburgh head coach Mike Tomlin has heavily relied on the defense to carry out the victories. This is why both the opponents in the starting weeks haven’t been able to exceed beyond the mark of 10 points. In the meantime, the Chargers indeed entered their rejuvenating era under new head coach Jim Harbaugh with a 2-0 record.

Predicted line-up for the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Los Angeles Chargers

Steelers

Offense: Justin Fields (quarterback), George Pickens, Pat Freiermuth, Jaylen Warren, Zach Frazier, Broderick Jones, Troy Fautanu

Defense: Josh Harris, T.J. Watt, Minkah Fitzpatrick, Cory Trice Jr., Alex Highsmith, Larry Ogunjobi 

Chargers

Why can the Steelers win the match? 

Even though the Steelers are not that strong when it comes to offense, given that the signal-caller’s individual stats are also quite inadequate. But they do have one strong part– the defense, which is resilient, stingy, and ruthless towards the opposing offense.

There’s a genuine possibility for the Steelers to steal the victory as being 1.5 points favorite by shutting down the Chargers’ offense. Meanwhile, the Steelers offense has been efficient in moving the ball around and scoring with quarterback Fields’ limited turnovers and sacks. 

Why can the Chargers win the match? 

Since head coach Harbaugh took over, the Chargers’ offensive line has improved significantly. Especially when it comes to running game, they are one of the best across the NFL, all thanks to Dobbins, who is already leading the league in rushing yards. This will not only control the clock, but also bring numerous opportunities to outperform the Steelers.

Targeting the holes in the Steelers’ offense could benefit the Chargers, who are already riding high on confidence after dominating victory of 26-3 in week 2.
