The Los Angeles Chargers are in Pittsburgh to stomp on the Steelers. This is your open thread to talk about the game.
The last time I forgot to write an open thread the Los Angeles Chargers lost the game. I almost forgot again today, but I got this one going and we should be good to go!

I am excited for this game. This is a time that our team can show off in prime time. This is a chance for our team to start getting some recognition. We do have a solid squad that is going to compete in the playoffs. We have a team that needs attention and putting a stomping on the Pittsburgh Steelers in their house will get the attention.
I know we will be without Melvin Gordon, but I look forward to seeing Austin Ekeler picking up some big chunks when he gets the ball. It could be a monster game for him. He is going to do it in the air and on the ground.
I expect Philip Rivers to continue from his greatness last week on offense as well. It is Philcember!
On defense, I am looking forward to seeing Joey Bosa eat. He has been a difference maker in his two games back and the team defense is just going to get better and better with him getting more reps on defense. Looking forward to seeing a strip sack from him tonight and Derwin James picking it up for the score.
Time to shut all the haters mouths up!
