Pittsburgh Steelers Stun San Diego Chargers On Last-Second TD, 24-20
“And yes, do I feel like we can go in there and win the game”. We were checking in and out of plays and it was about as tough as it gets. I don’t know what’s going on.
Coaching- One area I give Mike Tomlin credit is that his teams often bounce back after a loss.
That he called a certain final play of running the ball instead.
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger joined The Cook and Poni Show on Tuesday for his regular weekly spot on the #1 Cochran Ben Roethlisberger Show following a thrilling come from behind last second win in San Diego on Monday night Football.
Brown was later asked if that was the most single coverage that he’s seen against him Monday night against the Chargers.
Brown threw a pass to a covered Vick, Brown said, before the quarterback hauled the ball in and let loose a personal celebration of his own, Vick said.
Roehtlisberger talked more about the wildcat formation that the Steelers implemented throughout the game and how often we could see the team use it.
Official game time is kept on the stadium scoreboard, which is operated by a league-hired local resident who usually has college football officiating experience. It would have also dropped the Steelers to 2-3, with Ben Roethlisberger still injured, and two of their next three games against the 4-1 Cardinals and the 5-0 Bengals.
In the second, the Steelers rode Le’Veon Bell to a 9-play, 47-yard drive that resulted in a 47-yard Chris Boswell field goal. Joe Flacco came in with a 13-1 record against the Ravens, but he went three-and-out in his first possession in overtime.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are preparing for a big matchup against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday and they are hoping to have a few of their key players back in the lineup to help out.

Eight days earlier, the rookie kicked a 34-yarder as time expired for a 30-27 win over Cleveland.
So far this season, Brown has caught a total of 37 passes for 523 yards and two touchdowns.
Gates was suspended without pay for testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug in the offseason. Vick had, with just over seven minutes to play, tied it up with a flawless pass to Markus Wheaton who raced 72 yards for the score. Receiver Malcom Floyd broke off a crossing route that led to the pickoff. That was Blake’s first interception since October 26, 2014 and the first pick-six of his 4-year career.
Late in the third quarter, and just when it seemed like the Chargers were on their way to another scoring drive, the Steelers defense rose up. He has turnovers in 10 of his last 11 games.
Notes: Rivers was 35 of 48 for 365 yards.
