I foresee a surge from SD, but ultimately, their O-line is in shambles, and Philip Rivers was already a turnover machine. I've stated it several times: James Harrison will have 5 splash plays: either sacks or creating INTs (via pressure).

I see 3 sacks (1 w/ a strip) and 2 INTs. The Steelers capitalize on all three, for 17 easy points... plus two other scores (10 points).

Total: 27

SD has only scored 8 offensive TDs in their past 7 games... and even though they do really well in December, and even though they will be playing hard for their lame-duck coach, I really do not see much offense occurring (see the aforementioned comments about the O-line & about Rivers).

Total: 13 points

SD: 13
PITT: 27
