Steelers and Chargers Set for Clash of Top Defenses in Week 3
Both teams enter the matchup with 2-0 records and the league's stingiest defenses, promising a hard-fought game in Pittsburgh.
- The Steelers and Chargers both boast undefeated records and top-tier defenses, allowing just 8.0 and 6.5 points per game, respectively.
- Chargers' running back J. K. Dobbins leads the NFL with 266 rushing yards and will be a key player against the Steelers' stout run defense.
- Steelers' star pass rusher T. J. Watt will face off against Chargers' rookie right tackle Joe Alt, who has impressed in his first two games.
- Justin Herbert's ankle injury could limit the Chargers' passing game, increasing their reliance on the run-heavy offense.
- The Steelers have not allowed a rushing touchdown this season and have excelled in one-score games, going 2-0 in such contests so far.
