Ok, all you Steeler fans can relax a little. I see a lot of vitching and complaining about Tomlin here. I can assure you that compared to the Chargers Head Coach, McCoy, Tomlin is a genius. Look, the Chargers are in complete disarray right now. While, they are in desperate need of putting a complete game together. They do that about once every decade, I wouldn't count on that this Monday. I can assure you that McCoy will do everything possible to keep this game close. Whether it will be his atrocious clock management or Frank Reich's unbelievably bad play calling, example: Cleveland had the NFL's worst defense against the run going into last Sunday and what does Reich do, throw the ball. Chargers rookie RB Melvin Gordon only had 10 carries, despite averaging 4.3 yards per carry. Sadly, we Chargers fans will get to find out how good this talented rookie is because the Chargers do not run the ball. A perfectly healthy Gordon stood on the sideline much of the game. The Chargers special teams are beyond horrible. They can't cover or tackle. The Chargers do have a lot of talent, much of it young. Tight End, Ladarius Green is 6'6" with wide receiver speed. Gates and Green do present a problem for the Steelers Defense and, of course, there's Rivers, without him the Chargers would be 0-4 right now and the Chargers coaching staff would be exposed for just how totally clueless they are. I'm a long time season ticket holder for the Chargers, these tickets have been in my family for 54 years now so, I know the Chargers organization in and out. Expect a close one Monday. The only thing you can depend on here in San Diego is the weather. Expect it to be nice. My prediction Steelers 23 McCoy 23.

'Above the neck' problems make it difficult to think touchdowns will replace field goal (attempts)....but here's hoping!

Steelers - 9 (two safeties, a blocked conversion runback for a defensive try, and one field goal)
Chargers - 8 (one safety, one touchdown with a blocked conversion)

First downs - 13

I'll give this a try-
But I'll be picking with my heart, not my head...

Super Steelers:: 26

Chargers:: 24

1st Downs:: Umm... 21

There may be more- I'm guessing that we'll run a lot & when Vick does throw (cringe), he'll probably be throwing short passes like slants & screens. (And hopefully he'll be throwing them to a Steelers receiver!)

Like I said, I'm picking with my heart.

 

I usually have a sense for this (at least I think I usually do), but not this time. I have no idea.
