Chargers D/ST Must Rely on Pressure Sunday Night
The Los Angeles Chargers defense/special teams unit performed well against the Tennessee Titans last week, holding the offense to just 233 total yards, recording four sacks, and making key stops in the red zone. Cornerback Tarheeb Still (knee) missed the last game and is doubtful for Week 10, but the Bolts should get safety Tony Jefferson (hamstring) back. They face a methodical Pittsburgh Steelers offense led by veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who will attempt to control the clock. The Chargers' top-three pass defense will rely on pass rushers like Odafe Oweh (two sacks last week) to pressure the less mobile Rodgers. Since the Steelers play a slow, grind-it-out style, the Chargers D/ST lacks the high-turnover potential that often makes a defense an attractive start. They are ranked as D/ST14 and should be viewed as a lower-tier streaming option for this week.
