The Chargers defense stepped up in a huge way in primetime as Jesse Minter’s unit basically pitched a shut out. Could this be the win that shows the Chargers are still for real? Daniel Wade and David Droegemeier break down the Chargers 25-10 victory over the Steelers, including the incredible game plan by the defense. The defense won the game with their defense by battering and turning over Aaron Rodgers and coming up with big stops.

this guy's such an idiot. no mention of rashawn slater going down, and how the offensive line was jumbled up resulting in horrible blocking. I wonder if he even watched the game or just the highlights?
